Slow travel with load only

I've been designated to work on our fleet of a bunch of random equipment and never had training... ive done good until recently... I have a crown sc4000 that seems to lose travel power when under a load... im hoping anyone has an idea of what could be causing this... any help will be appreciated... thank you

I checked and was really weird.... had same voltage with and without load but higher amp draw without.... turned out it was low on hydraulic fluid causing the mast raised limit switch to be made when barely raised... im new here hope it helps someone else... thanks
