there is a non return in the system to keep them under pressure, sounds like it's not holding pressure

Hi ended up getting a 60 plate cat 432e premier with a miller twin lock hydraulic hitch which is the best bit about the machine overall it's not too bad a machine albeit a bit unstable had it on 2 wheels twice today and also was rather smokey I have it again tomorrow then hopefully will get the Jcb back
