Your problem statement is not quite clear, however I will make a guess. Assuming your problem is that when you remove the '>' sign from your query term you receive zero results, then this is actually expected behavior for field types that are of type string. When searching against string fields you need to match the whole field value exactly. So the '>' is needed to get a match. Recommend redefining or adding corresponding fields as type text_general. This type is tokenized and will allow for the match you are looking for.
