I think my hydraulic pump on my L2950 is weak. I am not sure if it is going bad weak, or it is just weak in general or has been turned down.
I have only had the tractor a few months. A couple of weeks ago, I was using the bucket to move a 6ft set of Disc Harrows, and it barley picked them up off the ground. Once they came up, and I got a few more RPMs in the engine I finally got them about 1 foot of the ground and that is all that they would raise.
Also, I needed to move some dirt recently with the bucket. I placed the bucket flat on the ground and as I drove into the pile of red clay, I started tilting the bucket up. Once it hit full tilt and the tractor stopped, I proceeded to finish lifting the bucket out of the dirt. It would not move up until I started to back the tractor up from the dirt mount. Once the end pressure let off the bucket, it sent up with no issue.
It just seams to me that I should have been able to lift the bucket out of the dirt while still plowed into it or even while still trying to move forward.
This is my first tractor and I am still not exactly sure what to expect from it. If there is a chance that the hydraulic pump has the pressure or flow turned down, how would I be able to tell and adjust it back up. It has recently new lines on it, except for the power beyond line and the 3 point and the front bucket are the only hydraulics on it.
