Where as the 2 stadge clutch which i have on my 35, when you press the clutch the hydraulics will stay up but if you puss it right down for pto clutch (to select pto) then they will drop. If your hydraulic pump is worn when you stop the engine the hydraulics will drop slowly. If you have the single stage clutch the hydraulics will droop if the clutch is pressed.

Have recently bought a 35 with a similarfault. Mine has the 2 stage clutch. Hydraulics work fine until you depress the clutch fully and wont stay up when engine stopped. Any further ideas most welcome. Graeme Interested in the outcome. Have recently bought a 35 with a similarfault. Mine has the 2 stage clutch.

On an older clutch you may not be able to feel the 2 stages. If it is a single clutch then pressing the clutch will stop the hyd pump. I think I have answered the correct fault.

The hydraulic lift arms will raise, even with a heavy implement attached, but when I push in the clutch to shift into gear the lift drops. I had a mechanic take the seat and top covers off which is how it sits now. Can anyone diagnose what the problem is with this. Apparently it is not an uncommon issue.
