Could be a number of things....is lift the only function that is slow?..Is it slow tilting and reaching....???? Could be low hydraulic fluid....Hyd filter needs replaced....low lift pressure getting to the lift cylinders.....mast binding up due to worn or damaged rollers...hyd pump worn or not putting out correct pressure....bypass line or valve stuck open partially...have a full model and serial number for the truck..????
