It's manual levers. Jumping off seat, the truck still lowered slowly. But stops a few seconds later after the deadman switch opens. That would mean it's bypassing from spool valve, but stops when load holding valve closes. (By jumping off seat)
If the load continued to drift with dead man switch open, then I might suspect packing leak. Make sense?
I just can't catch it fail. Hard to fix a working truck!
