The hydraulics on my 48 8N were working OK then they stopped working all together. I removed the plug from the hydraulic pump (bottom plate) and a little oil came out. The lift went up after I replaced the plug but wouldn't come down (well it eventually did after about an hour). Any ideas as to what the problem is? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you JCP

Update.
The hydraulic lift was coming up even when the lever was in the down position. I picked up an 8 ft york rake and while using it had to wait a while for the rake to fall after disengaging the PTO. After a few times my hydraulics started working again. They will not stay up when I shut off the engine but at least they are working somewhat like they should. Any ideas what would cause what I am experiencing?
Thank you.
JCP

Your problem description is sketchy as will be my answer. If you don't have one, get an I&T F-04 manual. Next, drain the hydraulic/transmission oil (3 drains, 1 fill) and replace with about 5 gallons of M2C-134D oil available from farm and home stores, FNH dealer or even Wally-world. Old,water-logged, dirty fluid can cause lots of problems. If, when draining the fluid, you see water, or if the fluid is milky (water in suspension) look at your shifter boot. If not in good shape, rain will find it's way into your fluid. R/R as needed. Good luck. Steve 8N 169302
