Have a Satoh Mitsubishi Buck track with a front loader.
When I first got the tractor form my dad the hydraulics was slow when raising the bucket. The problem then was that the filter screen in the transmission, where the fluid comes from, was plugged. So I cleaned the filter on two occasions and changed the fluid twice.
So I drained the old fluid a few days ago, thinking that the screen was plugged again.
The screen was clean.
When I start up the tractor it takes about a minute before the bucket starts to move. I am wondering if the pump is getting worn out. I probably need to put a pressure gage on the output of the pump and then on the input to the control valves.
Any thoughts on what can ne occurring here.
Where does one buy the gauge for measuring the hydraulic pressure in a system?
