Hyster reach stacker boom stuck

Hi guys.

I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of the problem I have with the reach stacker I operate at work. The boom keeps getting stuck in or out and won't come in. If the machine is left for a while it works again. Our fitter has been looking at it but can't seem to pin point the problem in time as the truck is needed to move containers.

On the side of the machine is says
