Default 782 lift problems

Good evening peeps.

Been spying and looking for info for years, finally have to ask for some help.

I have a red 782.
Today I swapped in a dual spool hydro unit so I could run a power angle.
I swapped in the new unit, including the lines off the trans ( didn't want to bend mine)
I ran new lines to the front with 1/4 inch quick connect couplings.
I mounted up my 42 inch plow with my brand new cylinder and mounts.
Started her up, everything barely moved.
I pulled the three point, dumped about two quarts of fluid in, put it back together.
My hydro now BARELY work. If I pull a hose off the power angle cylinder and pull the lever hydraulic fluid shot about 40 feet! Hook it back up and nothing. It's like the cylinder has some kind of a pressure lock. The stock lift cylinder will only lower if I stand on the 3 point while pulling the lever. It will only raise about 1\2 inch off the ground.

Machine moves forward and backwards like brand new.
Could it be the filter?

Does the cylinder move freely?
Only thing I can think is that the cylinder is tight.

Just to make sure we all understand, when you say "dual spool hydro unit" are you just referring to the spool valves mounted on the steering column correct?

And was 2 quarts enough to fill it, or was that all you had?

Also, how do you have the lines hooked up?
Is it possible you have them crossed up somehow?

GOMPERS,

I'm about to thow up. I am an idiot. I think I have the lines crossed. I have the deck lift on the two marked "A" and the two auxiliaries on the ones marked"B"
It appears that both should have an "A" and a "B"

Once the sun comes up I will switch them up and report back.

Ps.
2 quarts topped it off.

Glad you have it fixed.
Hang around,we fix all the worlds problems one day @ a time
What I would of liked to see is the 40' squirt of hydraulic oil.
That had to be funny.

Some years back, I was removing plow hoses to one of my 2 cyl John Deere farm tractors.
They have plugs on the back that are removed/installed and retained with a spring loaded pin.

Well one was not fully seated, and I, standing behind the tractor, actuated the lever and one plug blew out hitting me in the gut, propelled by #1200 of warm hyd fluid, soaking my 'T" shirt, glasses and Levis, in a millisecond.

I was startled, couldn't see, & it hurt.
Instantly I thought it penetrated my gut and the warm fluid was blood.
I just knew I was going to die quickly.
Well,
after the initial shock of it all, I began to realize ( it seemed like an hour)
that I was not bleeding to death, and I needed to unlatch the actuating lever, stopping the hyd oil from gushing out.
There I stood hyd oil dripping from my face,hair, glasses,
Levis, & shoes.( Hat plum blowed off my head)
Lucky I was behind the barn and not in the far field.
I slogged to the house and removed everything before entering and showered with Dawn dish soap.
Everything but my shoes wound up in the burn barrel.
My stomach was a bit sore for a few weeks but no other problems.
Looking back,
I think it was a stupid move to actuate the lever to see if everything was ok,
akin to looking in a gun barrel and pulling the trigger to see if it was loaded.
No, I didn't chit my pants that day, but it wouldn't of mattered if I did.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
