I HAVE A MF 240 WITH 882HRS ON IT. THE HYDRALICS WILL LIFT BUT IT IS JERKY. WITH A BUSHHOG ON IT, IT WILL LIFT BUT IF I STAND ON IT WHILE IT IS RUNNING OR PUT A COUPLE OF ROCKS ON IT. THE HOG WILL DROP. THE PUMP WAS REBUILT BY A MF DEALER. WHAT COULD BE WRONG??? BIG DEN YOUR THE MAN.

Hi,
Just a first thought, do you have Pressure Control on your MF's in the States. It is the 'blue' forward quadrant. If the 'square-knob' lever is in the forward position and you are raising the linkage on the 'round-knob' lever then that might be your problem. Move the 'square knob' into the rear position.
Another thought, if you have a selector valve fitted (under the seat), make sure that it is fully in the linkage position.
Regards
DavidP

That sounds like the master control is letting the draft sensing plunger pull out to far and it is neutralizing the control valve. This is quite common on the MF100 and MF200 series tractors I have a picture that shows how to hook a chain in place of the top link to check if that is your problem. If you will send me your email address I will Email it to you.
