[QUOTE="Thomastech, post: 18915, member: 2058"] The first thing I would check is if your seals in your cylinders are good. In order to check them you have to roll your qtach out to about a 45 degree angle, and shut the loader off. Then turn the key to the run position without starting it and rock the foot pedals to relieve hydraulic pressure on the lines. Next remove your tilt cylinder to qtach pins and allow your qtach to drop down. Then you have to disconnect your hoses under your step plate and remove your top tilt cylinder pin. When you have the tilt cylinder held in a vise remove the hoses from the cylinders and cap the ports so that no air can enter and no fluid can escape. Try pushing and pulling on the ram end of the cylinder, if it goes in and stays in or comes out and stays out you will need a new seal kit for t he cylinder. if not then the problem may be elsewhere in your system. let me know how you made out with this. I have plenty more tips that I can share. [/QUOTE]
