Discussion:
mast will not raise

One of my sideloaders stalls when I attempt to raise the forks, I've replaced the switch on the "up arm" but it still stalls. I'm wondering if the cylinder with brake fluid has a check valve in it that could be sticking or is there something else further into the system that could be causing this issue? (this has just started within the last month).
