my Massey 165 lift arms not responding right when i go to lift a plough it does not respond right away some times i have to put in gear and it lifts but takes a while to do so then when i what to lower the lift arms it drops down very fast is it my Hydraulic Lift Cylinder or what and there’s a knocking noise when i lift the arms up too high

I have a 165 and the tpl will not lift at all and if I have them lifted by another means, they drop slowly, do the pump seals need replacing? According to the above, the access and removal to the pump although fiddley should be easy!

Thanks for your kind time and effort in helping me fix the problem. I have work to do and don’t want to run the tractor with this bad knocking sound.

my 1980 240 developed a loud knock in the drive train after letting the tractor idle for about 30 minutes on a steep incline. What is the problem, a hudraulic pump?
