B6100 2 stage lifting issues

[North Idaho Wolfman]

I had it hooked up same way the PO had it hooked up and didn't lift it. I had it hooked up the same way the single was, and still didnt' lift it. I'll see if I can get a pressure gauge and go from there. It might be easier to post pics off my phone (which is really only way) cause this site has so many adds and pop ups it slows my laptop something stupid.

The majority of ads and popup's are not from us they are on your end.
You need to clean up your laptop!
And block popups.

Become a paid member then your issues will solve themselves.
Well not your tractor issues, for that you need to actually follow the advice and directions given.

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....

Sounds like the 2-stage is probably just too heavy for that front lift circuit, especially if the previous owner was using the 3 point hitch hydraulics to lift it instead. If the single stage worked fine before, I’d lean more toward a capacity issue than a bad pump.

Could still be a weak cylinder or relief valve though, especially if it tries to lift but stalls out. I’d also check system pressure before tearing into anything major.
