Hooked up implement that worked yesterday, it won't raise. Filled hyd oil res. I can hear it labor. At first it moved slightly, then not Switched remotes, still nothing.

The coupler is likely to be stuck. To check it change the lift to lower and vice versa. (be careful to assess if the implement has pressure in it before
removing them. Jim
 
This may sound like a dumb question,
but did you flip the remote coupler
levers on the tractor to the on
position after hooking up the hoses
? Did this once in a hurry after 1st
getting my 1086 and they will not
operate with them off. I thought
something had torn up about it. Had
dealer come to fix it. Costed me a
lot of humility and a Pepsi Cola.
Lol.
 
I would try swapping on two new or known good male coupler ends on the implement hoses. Sometimes a part of the
valve in the end goes bad and they will not let oil flow. Sometimes if the male and females are mismatched one having
the ball style and the other having the pointed tip style they somehow get out of alignment and will not flow oil. What is
the implement? This is uncommon, but some implements that have long stroke cylinders that may support weight over
people like a backhoe have safety poppet valves that require pressure to make the cylinders move so if a hose fails the
cylinder will not just drop. These type usually have a block on the cylinder where the hose connects. If it has this
something in the block may have went bad or stuck. If my first recommendation about the tips does not fix it I would
suggest hooking to another implement if you have one to see if it will work that machine. Since you say it labors when
trying to operate the hydraulics it does not sound like it is a tractor problem.
 
Change your couplers if it started to move and stopped but ya hear the engine labor change the coupler on the tractor and implement hoses ALL of them
