WD 45 hydraulic linkage

Recently picked up a wd45 with a trip bucket loader that is run off the rear remote. Everything was fine and dandy till decided to adjust the linkage so that it was in the hold position. I tried following the manual and here’s where I ran into some trouble. The detent worked but was almost to the top of quadrant when it would snap in. Lowering was no problem but it made the lift very slow. I figured I could live with that for now but went to hook up my snap coupler plow and put it in traction booster mode and discovered that I couldn’t separate the plates with the “B” screw the linkage didn’t have enough throw to make the plates line up with the dimple. Has anyone run into this before?


Being a bit impatient I tried bending the road to give it more length thinking it that would help and broke the lever that connects it to the short rod so now I have to take that apart and weld it or try to replace the section of the pump with one from my parts tractor….. think that’s doable in frame?

Thanks

Thanks dr.Allis!! I thought I had read where you corrected the manual in a previous post but couldn’t find it so I assumed it was something else. I ordered a new gasket for that valve body do you think it’s possibly to remove just that portion of it and swap it with a good one or break it down and weld it? Trying to avoid taking the frame rail off since that would involve removing the loader as well and I’m trying to get it ready to work the garden a bit and do some haying. Thanks again

Thanks for the heads up. I had a feeling the whole pump would have to come off so I ordered both gaskets and will most likely try taking it apart and welding the lever back together since everything else seemed to work okay the other pump I have is of unknown condition. Is the oil seal on that a simple oring or something g I should order from an Allis supplier? Would like to have all the seals ready to go so it’s not off the tractor longer than it needs to be.

You van temove yhe pump withput ysking the grame rail off. I pulled mine withe the loader still on. Its a little tight pittong back on nut if you stick a nail on each pump actiator arm put it on then pull the nails befor you nolt nack on it dosent go to bad

It's your call. Whenever I do one, I go completely thru it, even if it just a leaker. I'm doing it for hire, so I can't have things go wrong after the fact. New Orings, springs, balls, copper washers and gaskets as a minimum. Checking max pressure before pump removal indicates if something needs to be done with the unloader valve. Always throughly wash out the sump as it will be terribly dirty.
