I need help figuring out a hydraulic problem on my gehl 353 mini excavator. I have two functions that are slow to change directions. They are the boom cylinder and dipper cylinder. It takes about 2 seconds to change form one direction to other. Makes it almost impossible to dig properly. Thanks.

Good day
Do you have a hydraulic schematic for the machine ? Any history to the problem ? If you operate both arm and boom together, is the delay still evident?
Kind regards

Yes it does it while operating together. Has had recent hose replacement. So I was leaning towards dirt in system somewhere. I dont have schematic.

Can you recall which hose was replaced and did the problem show up at that point?
