Touch Control lack of down pressure

Postby Super A » Mon May 22, 2017 1:00 pm

Everyone,

The last couple times I have plowed the garden with my Cub, I have noticed issues with it pushing the rear sweeps into the ground. If I pull the TC lever down to the usual spot, the engine will labor like the hydraulics are under pressure, but it can't push the sweeps any deeper. If I add some weight to each side (cinder blocks) it will go into the ground better. It lifts fine but right now all that's on it are the 144 cultivators.

Where do I need to start looking first? I'm thinking a relieve valve is weak, but it's been a while since I've read the manual on this.

thanks,
Al
