Backhoe one stabilizer will slowly lower when machine is working other end (i.e. bucket). OR have noticed similar behavior when actuating boom cylinder. The left side cylinder is the culprit and is sluggish compared to RHS. The 'leak' is not, I belive, in the cylinder as it will remain in position for days (retracted) without movement. I wonder if there is something peculiar in the valve 'cluster'? How could overall pressure fluctuations in the tractor cause the stabilizer (RHS'outrigger') to begin to decend? BTW, this lowering is under Hyd power as I've tried to chain the two stabilizers together but the chain was severed in a matter of minutes of tractor operation. Otherwise machine runs great and has outstanding power. Ideas? Opinions?
