Loader creeps down

BrianRMB · Sep 28, 2010

My Massey 35 gas has a Freeman 3000 loader on it that I use to do mostly light work like carrying stones or moving a little dirt. But lately the bucket and the loader will creep down with a load in it.....will do the same thing when empty, but will take longer. The fluid is OK and the cylinders always did leak a little but is it the pump or some valve that is the primary problem? Thanks.

Most likely the internal cylinder seals are leaking. Won't leak on the ground so don't lose any oil. Dave

I just replaced all the seals in my Dual. It both leaked and settled. Doesn't leak now but still settles, just not as fast. Wondered to if it could be the valve.

Spool valve do indeed wear out as the clearance between valve body & spool gets to large. Only remedy is comlete valve replacement.
