Why is my wheel loader slow to lift the boom?

Common reasons for slow boom lift:

  • Low hydraulic oil level – check and add oil
  • Clogged hydraulic filter – replace it
  • Worn hydraulic pump – needs repair or replacement
  • Hydraulic cylinder internal leak – seals may be worn
  • Wrong work mode selected – switch to power mode

Start by checking oil level and filters. If the problem remains, have a mechanic test the hydraulic pump pressure.
