Finally got the video of the noise on You Tube. It is “L2800 noise”.

Noise is only when I raise the FEL. I pulled the hose going into the back side of the HST pump and had fluid running outof it so feel like it is getting to the pump. I took a video. Just got to get my kids or a 3 year old to help show me how to load it somewhere to share.

That is what it seems like. I replaced the tube that usually the issue- one that runs behind the brake pedals- as I had that issue before. No help there. I was thinking of replacing the filter. Don't know of anywhere else that air might have access...

I did. Fluid level is to the top of the sight glass.

It is HST...worried that it may be the pump-$$$- seems to drive fine- did not notice the jerky steering until yesterday- seems like the more times I raise the FEL the slower it goes and there is a noticeable additional noise besides the engine. Just seems like there is no fluid going to the...

I checked the linkage and it is fine. Loader will barely move and when I just drove it, the steering is getting jumpy as well. Noise coming from what I assume is the pump. Looks like it may be going to the shop😞

Thanks. I will look at it when I get home. Where is it located on the tractor?

I could see a trail of fluid on the ground behind where I had been cutting. It is holding the fluid fine and don't see any leakage. I am going to try and locate the linkage that Dave_eng mentioned. It's like it has gotten progressively slower to lift the FEL - seems like something has blocked...

I have done that. I did notice, which may be what Dave was taking about, the each time I have tried to use the FEL, it moves slower each time. Almost like something is restricting the fluid flow to the attachment.

probably 3 gallons- it was pumping out....

I filled it back up to the sight line. Had to use Kubota UDT fluid as they were out of Sudt2 at the time. Wouldn't think the difference in fluid would cause an issue, would you?

Thanks so much for the info Dave. Will try to locate and check it today. Any tips on where it is on the tractor?? Mechanics are not my strongest ability but can figure most things out.

Sorry- did not disconnect any hoses.

Dave, the loader lowers smoothly as does the box blade.

I had my sight glass break and fall out while working- pumped out a lot of fluid. Got a new glass and added fluid back. Tractor runs fine but loader and box blade act like they have no fluid going to them- very sluggish and chattering. I went ahead and replaced the suction tube behind the brake...
