This is a heavy disc. The 8N lifted the 60" Bush Hog up with little problem but they only weigh a couple of hundred pounds. This is a 6.5' Disc with 18" discs and weighs 553#. It initially lifted it a little but the left side dropped down when the left lower link arm bent a little. The lower arms are rusted so I am getting a couple of replacements that are supposed to be good from a place that has some used parts. I send him a check after I get them so I'm not worried. Beyond that, the 8N is supposed to be able to lift that much according to what I've read about it. I believe my next steps, according to what I've read in the wonderful Forum, are to follow these steps until the problem is solved: (1) check the lift with the depth control in both positions (2) open the right side inspection cover and look for leaks - if I see any leaks then I take the seat off and open the system to fix the leaking parts; (2) if no leak is apparent then I check the pressure relief valve (safety valve) with my finger [IS THERE ANY DANGER IN THIS???] to see if it is leaking, (3) take lift arms off and follow instructions to remove lift cover then replace the ram cylinder with one with an o-ring, replace the cam pin, and replace the pressure control valve, and replace anything else that shows signs of advanced wear such as groves and pitting. How much have I left out? Gene
