B6100 2 stage lifting issues

[b454rat]

I bought a 2-stage snow blower (think it's a B222, no ID tag) and when it's all hooked up, the hydraulics won't lift it. Granted it's a heavy SOB, but one I had the singe stage it would do it no problem. With the single stage it had 1 lever control valve, and when bought the 2-stage PO lifted it with the 3 point hitch circuit. i'm not sure if it's too much to lift with the control valve or pump or cylinder is worn out. Thought it was low on fluid but it's fine....

Who plumbed the new control valve?

Need a picture of the lift mechanism.

I'll try to get a pic. But for some reason this site makes my laptop stupidly slow, plus pics are on my phone.

But i plumbed the hydro's same way as it was on the single stage. I can't plumb other way cause need adaptors for the lines...

I think the hydrsulic plumbing is the first thing to check.

It's possible, but really can't see how since it came off and went on same way as the single stage, only thing that changed is the snow blower and hydraulic cylinder.
