Lift / mast dropping when sit on seat

Hi, I have a Cat DP25N, S/N T17D-60047.
The mast drops when you sit on the seat. I have been told it may be a LLS or unloader valve connected to the seat switch. Can anyone help out with info / advise on this?

sounds to me like the lowering spool is stuck or there is a problem in the control valve

even when the lift lock is engaged or disengaged there should be no movement from the mast unless it is called for by moving the levers.
