Bobcat 825 hydraulics

[bobbydfangus]

Looking for help with poor hydraulic function of 825. drives and steers ok. Out of the blue the hydraulics became very slow, then after a little while pretty much don't work. the bucket will tilt up about 50mm after holding the control pedal for about 30 seconds. the lift won't work at all. for a while if you held the lift pedal at a certain point it would operate properly provided you could hold the pedal still without moving it either way even 2mm, this will no longer work. The hydraulic oil is at the correct level, it was replaced maybe 5 hours ago. it is case of the old favourite, it was left at the neighbours house for about a week....upon return.....this Does anyone think this is a controller body fault? any help appreciated. Thanks

Could the auxilary hydraulics be acidentally activated?

Have thought aboutt this and I believe they are not activated, however maybe they are without me knowing. they are not hooked to anything. The hoses are plugged near the main arm pivot. I can move the centre pedal and it all makes a "noise". I'll fire it up tom if I get a chance and fiddle with this possibility
