The mast will jerks when lifting. This only happens every third or forth time. No other problems with the lift. The hydraulic fluid level is correct. The hydraulic system is self bleeding. All the cylinders look good, no scoring or damage. Mast rails are clean and lubricated. Thanks for the help.

when you say "jerks when lifting";
is it only when loaded, or unloaded,
is it staging correctly?
is this a 2, 3, 4 stage mast?
is it the carriage that bounces,
and how much is each jerk, 5 inches? a foot? 1/2 inch shudders?
does it do it once and that is it for the hour or every 4 times you lift above 6 inches off the ground?

by the way, I heard that time spent fishing does not count against your allotted time on earth...
