The 3ph hydraulics on my 1982, rebadged Mitsubishi ,compact 254 suddenly stopped working. The 3ph is the only hydraulics on the tractor; no add-ons. It's pretty much just a shredding machine. A couple of weeks ago I changed the hy-tran fluid because I had water in it from a badly cracked shifter boot. I was not quite able to drain it completely so there was still some water in the fluid. Then I shredded for about 8 hrs without any problems. I parked it for a week and was going to drain the hy-tran fluid again last Sunday. When I went to move the tractor the 3ph hydraulics would not work; completely unresponsive, wouldn't lift the shredder. I didn't see any leaks. I check the trans level, and it was within the operating range. The linkage seems to be intact. I have never worked on hydraulics but am willing to give it a go. Where should I begin the diagnostics adventure. I have a shop manual for reference. Any help appreciated. Norm
