My 584 3 pt hitch and remotes may quit working while mowing or plowing, etc. and then return after several minutes even though I continue to use the tractor. The steering and brakes are not affected at all. This has happened before and I cut the tractor off and came back in about 30 minutes and all was fine. Yesterday it quit lifting while using a disc mower and neither the lift or remotes worked but I was able to continue mowing. About 10 minutes later the lift came up(I had moved the handle and left it at top of quadrant) and all was fine while I mowed for an additional hour. Can anyone tell me what the problem is? A local shop says I need a new pump which he will be happy to install but I can't see that being the problem. I wonder about a sticky valve and have thought about trying some automatic transmission shift conditioner or similar fluid. The filter and fluid have been changed recently.
