No problem. Happy it helped.

I hope the video helps you get yours fixed.

Dude I got it working!!!

Yes they are. I've ordered a bunch of stuff from them.

Thanks! It's just too bad all the measuring didn't do any good with the bent rod LOL.

Were those measurements in the FO-4 manual?

It sounds like you may have sprang a hydraulic leak inside the tractor. I'd pull the cover off where the dip stick goes and look inside while it's running to see if you have any fluid spraying. The lift cover gasket blows out some of the time around the fluid passage.

I still need to fine tune mine a bit, but it's been working great. Good luck on your project.

Thank you! Hopefully I will be able to make some more 8N videos soon.

De nada. Feliz año nuevo

@@xpsgarage Gracias es mi mayor deseo para UD ,le cuento del 8n A lo largo de mi vida varios pasaron por mis manos... Pero este es terrible ! Los brazos de eje principal extractor y fuego Todavía no pude sacar el eje me reventó el tornillo de extractor hidráulico , Mañana veré

Not yet. It's close enough that I haven't wanted to take it apart again just because it doesn't drop quite all the way down. If I need it to lower that last few inches I just flip it over to draft mode. I'll get back to it eventually.

Here is a link to the jig. I've never seen anything like it for the Jubilee. www.just8ns.com/LG500-Years1939-52-Lift-Jig_p_2850.html

First thing I would do is remove the inspection cover where the dipstick is at. Next move your quadrant control up and down to see if the control rod in the tractor moves properly. If that checks out then the exhaust valve in the pump that releases the fluid is probably plugged up. If that's the issue you may need to drop the pump and do some cleaning.

I used an I&T shop manual that I picked up at my local Tractor Supply Company. I&T also makes a manual for the Jubilee so if you have a TSC store near you they should have one. www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/i-t-shop-manuals-ford-shop-manual-fo19-48-pages

@@xpsgarage Thank you!

Not really. In the 40 some years my dad had the tractor, It never worked right. Someone may have had it apart before and tried to do some adjustments or just wasn't careful with it..

You would need to have the lever up in the position mode and just set it at the height you want. I assume the mower has a wheel on the back that will help it ride over the bumps. The hydraulics on the 8N will let the mower move up as needed but only come back down to position you have it set at. If you tried it with the lever down in draft mode then it would just drop the mower to the ground and only try to raise it if you snagged it on something.

Ok, thank you for getting back to me. I really appreciate it.

@@TedBaylard-wn2qh No problem. Good luck with the mowing.

Sounds like something might be bent. Like I mentioned in my other response get an I&T service manual so you can dig in and find the problem.

thanks

Thank you sir.

The problem was that with the amount of bend it had it wouldn't work right. I watched several other videos and the control rods on them looked straight so I tried that, but that was too much. About half as much bend as it had works properly.

@@xpsgarage Thanks for the reply back, I’m getting ready to tackle the top end and replace the piston and your video has great insight on how to get the. I am enjoying gleaning yo

(To continue) your other videos for valuable insight. Keep up the good work!

I understand. I was learning as I was doing it. Do you have any specific questions?
