I have an older 50E powershuttle that has a factory 3 pt lift. The other day when tilling the garden the lift just dropped during a turn when the tiller was lifted. I unhooked the tiller and the lift will raise to the top with no weight but if I (300 lbs.) stand on the arms it will slowly go back down. We have contacted our local dealer but it seems this is a pretty rare tractor in the southeast and not many Massey shops have ever worked on one. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Assume you have check the fluid level and it is fine. Not many options there and not the one to give best info but most likely a lift seal blew at least part the way and oil is leaking past it. The greater the load the faster it fails.
