I removed my hydraulic pump this weekend. I drained out about 3 1/2 gallons of gear oil and cleaned out about a 1/2" inch crud. I have never had an implement on this tractor, but the lift worked, well it could lift me. Put it back together added 5 gallons of 134 D, hooked up a woods 7' back blade. It goes up and goes down fine no hesitation. My question is if I leave the blade in the up position turn off tractor and walk away how long should the blade stay up. Mine was down in about 3 1/2 hours. Should I be concerned with this, if yes what would be the necessary actions to take. Thanks, Drew

Drew..... ..there are some that brag that their hydraulics will hold an implement up overnight. This is an unsafe practice, but impressive. There are some that would die and go to heaven if their's would hold for 1/2 hour. 3 - 4 hours is pretty good hang time in my opinion..... ..Dell

one of my tractor books says that a two bottom plow that stays up for about 20 min. before going down is an indication of a good hyd. sys.

I don't think the length of time is too important. I think it's safer to always park the tractor with th eimplment inthe fully lowered position. As long as the tractor is running ,the lift should hold the implement in the up position(9N/2N) or any where you position it(8N). When you shut it off, it shouldn't fall. It would be ok if it settled gradually.
