from sitting a relief valve maybe stuck open try it 2-3 times a day it mite shut and your good to go ..some of the older tractors had a ball on a spring and it would stick open and shut down the hydraulics .. good luck

Check to see if the pump is pumping fluid.

The pump may need primed.

Have you checked and replaced the hyd filters and cleaned the screen if it has one.
