[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 1902, member: 82"] uum.... there is no reason for you getting small pieces of metal from a cylinder..... Even if the cylinder walls are scored, the piston should not make contact with it. I would be a little worried about where these metal pieces are coming from. Now, you mention you can get it to not move by adjusting the pedal. Does this also work when the machine is turned off? give it a go, shut the machine off and tilt the pedal back and see if it slows the drop if the bucket. If it does, it will either be your load check seals in your spool valve or a broken centering spring in the spool valve. I replaced my seals on my load checks on my 731 (some where shredded), the lift arms used to just fall on their own even after i replaced the ram seals, but i could stop it moving my tilting back on the pedal. Also, this ram, did they fully re-build it and not just replace the seals? as you did say it was scored did they hone it out or replace the outside of the cylinder. If not, that is probably why it worked to start with then went back to how it was. It would have just killed the piston seals if they didn't and you would be back to square one. [/QUOTE]
