As for the bucket, I don't get how it could be the bucket itself. When I operate it on open, I hear the machine lug slightly when it reaches full open, but when I try to close, there is no sound whatsoever. When I turn the machine off using the pressure relief switch, the bucket closes. To me it seems that the fluid is flowing in only one direction. The bucket cylinder has only the piston o rings, so I would think that if it went one direction with strength and no apparent blow-by, that it should work in the opposite direction which would tell me that the fluid isn't getting to the top of the cylinder. What would prevent it from getting there? The quick connects? and if them, wouldn't I hear the machine struggle against a dead-head? Am I wrong in that line of thinking?</p></blockquote><p></p>
