I was hoping someone could help me identify a problem I'm having with my AC 160. Recently when I was plowing, I started having issues getting the 3 point arms to raise . The loader I have on my tractor doesn't have any problems. I checked the fluid level by pulling the plug next to the right foot rest and it seems like I'm full. The 3 point lifts fine when I start the tractor, it only seems to start acting up once I've run the tractor a few passes. I read somewhere that there is a screen in the hydraulic system that needs to be periodically cleaned. Does anyone know where this might be? Any help is appreciated.

If you don't have a manual AGCO Parts Books will help with locations. Depending on what year your 160 is the filter will be in a different location.
