Is it the same PTO pump and hydraulic tank on the FL6 as where fitted to the Cyldesdale?
Possible that a smaller oil tank is running short when all rams are at full extension. PTO pump may not have as good a capacity or be low on delivery pressure.
After that I suppose it's pressure testing time on relief valves first then spool outputs. May just have picked some dirt up on transfer between vehicles.

Ahh! The way I read it was a recent conversion onto the Volvo.
