1650 hydraulic issues

I was using my 1650 tonight putting out hay. I had the bale picked all the way up putting it into the feeder. When I went to lower the loader it wouldn't go down. After messing with it, I found that if I lowered the engine to an idle I could put it down but it went extremely slow. And the loader was in float mode. Now I have all together lost the loader and 3 point hitch hydraulics, nothing moves. My steering still works fine if that helps to diagnose. I'm going to check my fluid level in the morning. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.

There's a bolt next to the floor on the right side sitting in the seat, turn it in and the hydraulics should work, if not turn it out, that is if it is full of oil and the filter not stopped up
 
Sounds to me like the flow divider is stuck. That's the valve on the left side by your ankle. It gives priority to the steering.
 
Eliminate other possibilities before you go after the servo. Fluid level and condition, filter. Pressure test the system and the flow divider. Did you lose the loader and hitch suddenly or gradually over time? Start with the pressures.
 
Yes I lost it suddenly. In the middle of putting out hay. They just stopped working. If it turns out to be the flow divider, how is the that to change?
 
Two bolts,two lines. Just take the big spring loaded plug out of the end and see if the spring's OK and if something's stuck in the seat. There's a smaller plug,spring and seat in the other end too. Check both.
 
(quoted from post at 05:29:10 02/18/17) It's a bypass valve for the servo valve which controls the 3 point. But it shouldn't affect the remotes.

It does effect the remotes, if its a single action cylinder
 
A single acting will work with the bypass closed, just not as well. I set my 1550 to single acting on the right to run my MoCo and tried it both ways. With the bypass closed it lowered slower and made noise.
