Crystalman,
Our 5245 has a lift problem, the Zetormatic control lever is stuck as a house, and the position lever has more friction in the upper end of the travel. In that end, the oil flow also seems to be obstructed. Could this be caused by the additional Zetormatic control valve, that is stuck inside the main lift valve and therefor jerking with the lift ?
Not many people seem to recognise this, i have had no time to go and have an inside look for myself, but this winter i want to fix it all the way, we bought it 4 years ago and it was already in a very poor serviced condition when we got it.
