B7800 loader

The FEL on my B7800 works well in all positions except the down position. When you push the lever forward there is resistance and seems to be back pressure especially when you release the lever. Any ideas?

Hey Bud,
Mine did the same thing last weekend,
I did not have a clue but after disconnecting the FEL hydraulic quick disconnecting lines and reconnecting them it started to work again......
Air-lock is my guess, worth a try...good luck.

Ivan,
Not an air lock, but a bad connection that wasn't letting fluid pass the connector.

j.roark,
Yes like Ivan said, try disconnecting the couplers and reconnecting.
Then if it's still doing it might need the valve rebuilt.
