Kabota LA1055 with BH92 hoe drops after a few hours of sitting. Getting worse. Hope someone has had this and point me in right direction.

some bleed down / drift is somewhat normal and can be expected.

caused by small internal leaks in seals of cyl or valvles, etc... Generally increases with age, use and/or abuse. I had a guy who seemed to keep pressure on too long when working after max. stroke had been reached and IMO his use would accelerate bleed down of my equipment.

solution is a rebuild of internal seals.

next time buy a kUbota, they work better

Kubota hydraulics are notorious for bleed down. I switched from UDT2 Hyd. fluid to the more viscous UDT and it helps a bit.

As mentioned above, use the boom lock on the BH92 and set the bucket of the LA1055 on the ground.
