I have a 1959 MF 85 with the continental 4 cylinder gas. It has the 3 point lift as well as the external hydrolic levers(2 spool). I cant get the 3 point to go up with the 3 point levers, but i can get it to go up when i hold both the external hydrolic levers back, and then back down when i push them forward. What causes this and what to do. There are way to many levers on that tractor for me, what do i need to close and what should be open. Thanks

I had a MF 85 with dual hyd(loader tractor) and if I remember correctly I had to lock out the 3pt to use both remote valves. Another setting allowed 1 remote and the 3pt worked up and down with the other remote lever. To use the 3pt with draft control,I locked out the remote valves.
To accomplish these varied tasks you opened or closed 3 different valves on the hyd control block that sits on top of the trans case just ahead of the drivers seat.Do you have an operators manual? If not I'll try to find mine and could send you copy of the pertinent info. Or I could leave you my phone # to give you more detail.
