Compact Ford 2110 Diesel Think it is a 1983 model

rbhuntn · Jul 15, 2015

Got a tractor related question for you knowledgable folks here.

Been using a friends Ford compact 2110 (think it is around a 1983 model) diesel. I has a FEL and had a backhoe attachment on it.

We took off the backhoe and put the 3 point arms back on. With the FEL down on the ground and the 3 point raised the arms lower pretty quickly even with no attachment on it after shutting the tractor off. When using the bush hog we are having to keep the loader set fairly low to keep the 3 point from bouncing up and down with the hog raised. The 3 point was not used for years due to the backhoe being on it.

I was thinking this might be a seal on the 3 point lift cyl leaking. Am thinking this as when the 3 point is raised under a load and you move the FEL to the float position the FEL arms raise.

Your thoughts?

When the backhoe is removed it is important to shut the tractor off before disconnecting the hydraulic hoses to the backhoe and plug them back into each other on the tractor side to complete the hydraulic circuit before restarting the tractor. When the loader is in the float position and raises it means you are getting back pressure through the power beyond hose which can be caused by blockage at the quick connects to the backhoe or raising the three point touch control lever all the way up putting the three point hitch valve in bypass.

We connected those lines the day we removed the backhoe. I was loading the tractor on the trailer Wednesday night and had both the 3 point raised with the hog attached and had to raise the bucket up to get it on the goose neck.

I did not have the 3 point raised up to that last notch.

Problem did not show up this time. Will see how it acts over the weekend hogging.

Thanks for the reply.
