JCB mini digger blade problem

[Goodwill Man]

Hello Members,

I'm facing an issue with my mini digger, the JCB C14. Recently, the blade isn't lifting as it should. While it still goes down and raises the digger, it fails to move upwards unless the engine is at maximum revs (and still very slow). I've checked the hydraulic fluid level, and there's no visible damage to the blade cylinder nor any signs of fluid leaks.

Do you have any insights on what might be causing this and how I could resolve it? Thanks for your attention.

It's probably on a cable which might be stretched or need adjustment

Sounds like the cable end at the valve is limited in movement by mud!

Yeah , I think Mr Goodwill has answered his own question
