Serial number is 14246, to the best of my ability. The '2' is quite hard to see, could be a 3,8 or 9? The other numbers are very legible. As far as my incorrect year statement, I repeated info gained from a AGCO dealer owner, in his '80's, who still stocked parts for my machine when I first bought it (pre-internet). Never considered looking up production dates, feeling a bit silly.
Question answers: All hoe functions affected, lift,dipper and curl. Can't say if stabilizers are affected as situation occurs while digging under load, never tried to see if stabilizers worked. Situation does not occur, say after storage when hoe is being lifted into transport position (no load).
As soon as diverter valve is put into loader position, loader works immediately and without fail....always. I had considered a pump issue but this fact steered me away from that. The up/down control valve does stick a bit, no leaking though. No leaks on lift/dump cylinders.
There is no pump squealing, no engine stalling when situation occurs. Pump is mounted in front of radiator feeding loader and hoe.
Hoe looks as if it is detachable, so pressure line that feeds hoe has a quick coupler in it. The return line does not, although this looks to be changed at some point. All control valves on hoe leak a bit when actuated, stabilizer cylinders leak down while stored.
A bit of history, I purchased the D-14 from an avid John Deere restorer, who did a 'soft' resto to the D-14. Paint, new tires, head/valve rebuild, hoses where needed. He added in-line flow controllers to both hoe swing cylinders, he said the machine rotated way to fast...dangerous even. Replaced the loader dump cylinder w/ aftermarket cyl. After getting the D-14, I changed to 12v(kept generator used resistor), rebuilt generator, rebuilt starter, rebuilt lift, dipper and curl cyls on hoe.
I have a International Harvester service manual for the hoe/loader, apparently IH provided parts for Wagner products at some point? The exploded views show my hoe pretty much as it sits today. Even shows where the filter used to be located and the missing quick coupler on return line of hoe. It also shows a "Cushion Vavle Assembly" mounted to the interior of hoe frame (facing rear of tractor). On my machine the CVA is abadoned. No lines in or out of it....what does a CVA do? Two lines from the main valve body feed the CVA then two lines go on to swing cylinders. I have noticed that after a long period of storage the first time you swing hoe the opposing cylinder woiuld push hyd oil out the vent (on the cylinder). This happens only on the initial swing, I assumed the swing cylinders needed rebuilding and hyd oil seeped past the seals while in storage. This may be a totally separate issue, unrelated to lift,dipper,curl issue?
Hope I didn't miss any ques.....
