This is a common design error...what happens is that gravity from the bucket pushes oil out of one side of the cylinder piston, faster than the pump can replace the void on the opposite side of piston.....
depending on how cylinder is hooked up, extending or retracting, wqhen this happens....problem can be solved in differnt ways.....
a regenerative valve is best cure if cylinder is extending....but do not work on retract...
one way adjustable orifice/ check valves (on meter out)is another option, that will slow drainage so pump can keep up with the void....
Question: IS CYLINDER EXTENDING OR RETRACTING WHEN THIS BUCKET DROPS DOWN??
