The issue may be that the Previous owner didn't know enough about how the system works. If you have a single hose to the hitch lift cylinder, the supply hose is the return hose. The system is designed to pressurize the single hose to extend, and let fluid back into the Liftall through the same hose to lower. Putting what may be a two way valve in the pressure line, won't work well. In all cases, the system needs a return to the Liftall. If you have a one hose rear cylinder: Take the extra valve off, and put it in a clean plastic bag for use later. Hook the cylinder up to the right side pressure elbow and all is fine. If you have a two hose (double acting) cylinder and a two way extra valve hooked up: There should be 4 ports on the valve. two of them in the center area, and one at each end. One of the center ports should be connected to pressure in (probably is now). The other center port (may be plugged of) should be connected to the Liftall bottom drain with a T as My drawing shows. Keep the hose tidy and horizontal and the hose will not snag. Each of the two cylinder hoses must be connected to one of the two "end" ports remaining on the valve. This is in essence, what is in the diagram I sent. The return hose you describe not going to the cap T I described is the reason it will not go down with the Liftall rod in any position but all the way in. The positions for the rod on the Liftall are up= all the way pulled out. Hold= hooked on the little knob on the rod. Lower= pushed in. Ask more questions if this is still unclear. JimN

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
