John deere 1640 Loader Control Valve Reseal Part 1

The loader control valve on our john Deere 1640 was leaking so in part one of the two part series I run through stripping it down.

I run into that when I put a new valve on my 1020. At an idle the engine acted like it was under load and the valve sounded funny. The John Deere guy told me to check that, sure enough, the relief was set too low. Keep smilin Lance, another good video. PS If you want some snow I can send you some, lol.

[@BundyBearsShed]

Yes it can be a problem if not set correctly, Im all good for snow thanks, lol .

Hi Lance, thanks for explanation on the difference between open centre and closed centre hydraulics and how John Deere differ from other brands in this.

[@BundyBearsShed]

You are welcome.

Call it " Bushhogging" in Alabama . I have my original valve for my 2010 JD . The feller I got it from put a joystick in place . It was under a hundred bucks , so not too bad for a get by

[@BundyBearsShed]

A joystick would be handy at times.

[@BundyBearsShed]

@@BundyBearsShed Btw do you know how to identify the model of pretty old hydro cylinders of tractor loader. Arm set cylinders engraved "1186" on the body, bucket cylinders engraved "1573". That's the only clue I can find. If I can figure out the model, then I can find the kit to real if need to do it. Thanks in advance

Only a proper Aussie can say he's got his safety thongs on!

[@BundyBearsShed]

Yep, lol.

[@Diesel_engines]

Its a walvoil unit perhaps SD5 series

[@BundyBearsShed]

Im not sure I showed my mate who owns a hydraulics franchise and he didnt know the logo.
