Discussion:
Hydraulics creeping slightly, up and down ?

Hello.
On My Mitsubishi FG25 1996 the up and down hydraulics for the tower, have started to creep after I release the lever, it does so in both directions. The creeping goes to a halt very smoothly.

I have tried to connect another joystick/lever to the up and down hydraulics, but same result.
The hydraulics for tilt and sidemovement has no creep.

Sorry for my lack of forklift-terminology, I'm a fairly new owner of my forklift.

Many thanks, from Denmark

The only thing I can think of is maybe a bad poppet in the spool valve or a bad spool valve spring not letting it return fully to center.
