'04 ASV SR80 auxillary hydraulics bleed off

[Petez]

Trying to use a grapple and the grapple will slowly lower and bleed off. Happens when i want it to stay raised and when trying to squeeze to hold brush. Would this likely be a solenoid or something else? Thanks

First test I would do...
Swap the hose quick connects on the grapple hosing, so that open is close and vice-versa.
If it continues to bleed off, the attachment is suspect.

Ive had this happen on a different machine when the seal went bad on the inside of the quick coupler part on the machine. Most dump to the case drain to allow for an easier hook up.
