53 NAA 3 point lift

Mark S. La Porte Indiana	Just bought this tractor. When I start the engine the lift will not operate (lift) until it has run for a few minutes. After that it seems to operate fine. Any thoughts? Thanks Mark
Bob G	My 8n does thast in the winter. The 90 wt oil take a bit to waarm up. make sure the oil level is where it should be. others may be more helpful!
Mark S. La Porte Indiana	Thanks Bob. The oil levels are good, but I am going to change all the fluids and grease it ASAP. The hydraulic oil does have a slight milky look to it. I read on here that the breather is just a felt type item that could have left moisture in. Thanks again, Mark
Bob G	The gear oil in my 8n gets the same way. I think it is condensation as it never sits out in the rain and I don't run it in the rain either. Good luck
Jim Loveridge	Mark, be sure you refill with hydraulic fluid. The NAA isn't like the earlier N series tractors. I get mine at a NAPA store it's just Valvoline Hydraulic oil. Hope that helps. If not it may be a tired pump, sticking relief valve or other things.
Mark S. Indiana	Thanks Jim, The book says Type A or B depending on temperature. I also thought the hyd. fluid at NAPA or TSC Ford hydraulic fluid. TSC says it is for use in older Ford tractors. Thanks Mark S.
