So last winter i used the quick hitch and snowblower without any issues.
We got BIG dump of snow Saturday, so yesterday I attempted to snow blow, about 30mins in I noticed that i couldn't raise snow blower, i could lower it, put on float, move chute side to side, so it seems everything else is fine except when i go to lift. I can hear the pump trying to lift and can see the hose flex a bit so I am not sure what the problem could be.
I drove it into garage over night and tried again this morning, same thing, the odd time I was able to raise it by lowering my rpms to 1500 or so, i could get it to engage and lift then bring rpms back up and would work for a bit and then do the same thing over and over.
I checked the hydraulic connections, is there something else I can check? I used the FEL/bucket lots this summer without any issues.
TIA
