I have a 2001 BX2200 used mainly for mowing. Last year the lift started 'sticking' for lack of a better word. I raise the lift lever and it will raise a little then stall and kick back. I then have to raise the lever again and the same thing happens. It may take three to four tries to get the mower or the 3ph to go up. It happens when lowering the lift also without the mower attached. I checked for any thing that might be impeding the lift but nothing obvious.

I tried several different searches but did not find any posts concerning this problem. I have not taken anything apart yet but need to get it fixed before mowing season returns. Thanks for any suggestions or a search string that will get me to the appropriate posts.
