Hi Everyone, I'm new to the forum (and new to tractors for that matter) and just bought a 12 acre property that came with a 1967 JD 4020 that pulls a Woods batwing mower. I've had great luck with using the tractor and its in really nice condition but I had a question on it. Whenever I get about an hour into mowing, I look back and the rear-most center batwing creeps up occasionally maybe a few inches. I pull the 'lower' lever and it goes back down but I was wondering if this could potentially be attributed to something like a leaky valve on the raise lower lever perhaps? I undid the hydraulics and drove the tractor down the road to fill it with fuel today and forgot to close the valve right below the second of the two ports that the hydraulic hose was connected to and hydraulic fluid spewed out the back when I started it up until I caught it pretty quickly and went down to turn the valve. Is this normal for these valves. I had assumed that it was like an air hose and only opens when a hydraulic hose is connected to it. Am I wrong in that statement. Any help is appreciated and sorry for any ignorance.
