C-160 hydro implement plow lift issue

Recommended Posts

Hello all , I have a c160 hydro with an issue with hydraulic lift not working. Tried another lift valve, lift cylinder, new hoses from valve to lift cylinder. Still doesn’t lift plow without helping it . Drives in forward and reverse with plenty of power. Anyone ever have this issue? Any thoughts? Can the implement side of transmission pump be bad , but tractor still drives with plenty of power?

Welcome! Mine are all gear units, curious to see the replies... you are only 2 towns south of me.

Possible internal leakage on the lift cylinder??

Do not have the answer but a link to some info. Should be model 90-1140

One of the relief valves has failed or is jammed open  Can't build up pressure beyond the 50-150 psi that feeds the charge pump.  You get enough pressure for the charge pump to feed slippers and piston block, they drive the tractor but that pressure is not enough to run the lift it needs 550-750

 

I would guess it is one of the springs for the implement valve has broken...

Do you have access to a pressure gauge?

Or they have been swapped from front to rear. One spring is significantly stronger than the other and won't provide enough pressure if not reinstalled correctly.

 Good Point  Also if you add hydro lift you have to swap the Charge and implement valves.   Did this thing ever work???
