Hydraulic pressure low until engine is reved up

I'm having problems with my telehandler. The forklift is a TL943. I can't get full hydraulic pressure without keeping the engine revved up. WHen you use the the auxiliary lever I get good pressure and everything works fine, but without using the lever and the engine idling, I have hardly any pressure and nothing will move. This just started happening. Any help would be appreciated.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
