I was discing with my 706 gas and was having trouble with the cylinder raising the disc. In the end it wouldn't raise it at all, wouldn't even lower the wheels to the ground. I thought I had a bad cylinder so I bought a new one wjth new hoses and couplings and still have the same problem. If I change the hoses around at the tractor the cylinder will move the opposite direction but then won't go the other way. The tractor lugs like the pump is working when I try to get the cylinder to move but nothing happens.

Did the new cylinder come with hoses? Did you use the same hoses and male remote tips from your old cylinder? If you used the old ones there is a possibility that the problem is with one of the male quick coupler tips. Put on a new pair and see if it works. Do you have any other equipment with hydraulics that you could hook the tractor to to see if it will raise and lower that machine?

Are there single double acting control knobs on a 706? Jim

Your description of how it is lugging down sounds like it may be hooked up wrong. Lacking a path for return flow.
Assuming your tractor has two pair of remotes double check that you have it hooked up to a pair of couplers going the same control circuit.

No.the system/valves are set up differently. So there is no need for a switching valve.

Is there an inline filter? I had a cylinder piston go bad. I repaired the cylinder but did not clean the filter. Oh the humility!

They are probably a 7/8 -14 thread coupler. Just use pipe thread to 7/8-14 adapters for the threads or put pipe thread hoses on the tractor. Coupler is not working right. Some times if you use the IH tip with the point on a Pioneer with the ball it can get out of alignment and then will act just like you describe. Had it happen a few times.
I replaced one coupler and the new one had 1/2 pipe thread, that was smaller then the original so i had a new hose made to fit it.The tractor has the breakaway type fittings. I can't find ant couplers the same size as the original so I bought an adapter today and another 1/2 coupler. I'll try this next time i get to the farm, might be a week or 2.
