    We have a GK IV Plus greens mower and the last couple times we mowed with it we were able to mow a couple of greens and then the back reel would not lift up from the mow position. Had to tie it up with a strap to get back to the shop. Thought maybe hydraulic filter was super dirty, but it checked out fine. Then put new lift cylinder on and still had the same problems. Wondering if anyone has had similar problems and might be able to share their knowledge. Thanks for the help.

    There is a hydraulic valve in line with the rear cylinder, right next to it. This is the only other component I can imagine would be your problem. Possibly it has failed or needs to be cleaned.

    We are having the same problem Christopher. Did that help you find a solution or not?
