Cat P5000

I have a Cat P5000 that is creeping. The mast tilts forward on its own. I have resealed the cylinders.
Is there a counter balance/holding valve built in to the tilt valve?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated since I don't have a manual for this machine.

It might be the spool in the Hydraulic control valve is bad,the centering spring may be broke in the bottom of the spool,holding it open,that is if the reseal job was a good one and all.....

Fact of the week
The origin of "love" as the score zero in tennis is debated, but two main theories prevail. One suggests it's derived from the French word "l'oeuf" (egg) which resembles the shape of the number zero. The other proposes it's related to the Dutch word "lof" meaning "honour" as players might be playing for honour when scoreless.
