That sucks....at least it should be an easy fix beyond the cost of the cylinder.

A bit off topic...
I was moving some rocks the other day...One was under a tree with low branches... I couldn't get it with the BH thumb (it was to big) and I couldn't scoop it up with the FEL so I used the FEL bucket in front of the rock and dragged it back into the open where I could get a better angle to scoop it up. It worked and the FEL had just enough power to lift it. I wondered if pulling it backward with the bucket was a smart move as I don't think its engineered for loads from the back...any thoughts about that?
