Oliver 3 point stuck in up position

IP: 104.129.196.115 Posted on September 30, 2015 at 09:54:07 AM by Shanon

My oliver 1600 tractors 3 point is still stuck in up position. You had mentioned to loosen valve by my right foot to bypass. I have the top off now and can see the Servo valve. I do not see any linkage or pins broken and still can not get the three point to go down by taking out the valves all around . I do not see a valve that goes directly into servo valve. I had mention the draft arm was disconnected somehow from the shaft that goes inside and has a large spring and pin that connects to linkage. could it be possible that when the draft arm came unconnected that it allowed the three point to go up so high that the linkage or something is jammed. When I was lifting the last bail with three point it stuck at on position and was clicking like it was trying to continue to lift but could not go any further. At this point I reached down to the three point lever and tried to push it back down but it was stuck and would not go down so I shut down the engine. the lever now goes both ways and linkage moves inside. However the linkage hits another set of linkage that goes to the draft control linkage. Since none of the valves seem to release the up pressure on the three point. Could it possibly be jammed up. I did order a Operators manual and repair manual from the place you gave me the number to.

Also the linkage for the draft control has to be connected. Yes I would reconnect that draft control linkage. Make sure there is no binding on the inside. There is a "Lock-out" bolt to use when you are not using draft control. But that linkage has to be reconnected and then you should be able to raise and lower the 3 pt. Larry

Could the lift piston have come out of the of the cylinder when It kept trying to lift higher and higher? And now is not going back in.

So I've been looking over the inside by the servo valve. I have literally opened every valve I can see on the out side of tractor with no pressure on any of them. also pulled the hydraulic line and no pressure there. I can pull up on the three point arm they lift a little and a cylinder shaped thing under the linkage pulls out when I lift up a little and seem to bind up or hit something when I let arm down. This cylinder thing connects to the draft linkage. I can not get the draft bar connected to the shaft that goes inside because the shaft connection is about 1/4 inch to far forward. Sorry to use words that aren't proper but I have no clue what most of this is called. First tractor ever.

To get those arms down, loosen the 4 bolts that hold the servo valve. This will let the oil escape. Then just retighten them. Larry

Do you think.the servo valve is bad? Or just the fact that the draft control arm came undone locked it in up position?-where do I get a new seal for the cover I had to take off to see servo valve. Or can I use old one that is still intact and some silicone or seal maker?

Check your assembly. If it is put together correctly, it should disengage. Apparently something isn't assembled correctly. Larry

880 timing

IP: 74.140.85.152 Posted on September 16, 2015 at 08:07:17 PM by Larry

Larry: We swapped our Bosch pump with a rebuilt Roosa. Question 1, are the injectors crack off specs the same with both pumps. Quest 2 We timed the pump by flywheel 'FP" mark and pump timimg marks lined up. And Im almost ashamed at this question, will it run if 180 out of time.It's hard starting and needs to be ethered even if warm. it just doesn't sound right. Thank You Larry

Re(1): 880 timing

IP: 184.21.143.147 Posted on September 17, 2015 at 08:25:52 AM by Larry Harsin

Yes, they are the same. You don't time it to the FP mark on a Roosa-Master. You time it at approx. 4¼ BTDC. And it won't run if it is 180¼ out of time. You have to have the pump timed to Top Dead Center number 1. Larry

1650 hydra-lectric

i have the hydra-lectric control valves set up so the right hand side is set for a single acting cylinder and the left hand side set for double acting cylinder. when i operate the right hand control it sends full pressure to both the right and left hand outlets. when i operate the left hand control it bleeds pressure into the right hand circuit. i removed the housing containg the valve spools and interlock guides and resealed it. i reinstalled the housing and valves and the still acts the same way. any ideas?

We always order manuals from the Floyd Co. Museum in Charles City IA. 641-228-1099. The tractors were built in Charles City. When the Oliver Plant there closed, they gave a lot of their paperwork to the local Historical Society. The people who work there are so good to find things and help Oliver People. We like to recommend them for manuals etc. as the income helps keep the museum open for Oliver People to go to! It's a great place to visit if you are ever in the area. Larry

Would like to add thermostart to White 2-85 tractor to help winter starting, I see the parts needed in the AGCO parts book, where does the fuel line hook to?
