Can I leave Mower on tractor Raised Long Term?

[CobyRupert]

It will slowly slowly leak down. I believe for the loader hydraulics Kioti says something like an inch an hour of sag is “normal”. Mine is nowhere near that bad and I have also kept the rear finish mower raised for several days with no sag but I would expect it to occur so place blocks under it.

Translation: "Not normal, but we won't do warrantee work on leaks less than that."

Just came across this old thread of mine from 6 years ago. Thought for grins I'd post that I've been locking the mower in up position for all these years and it does not (yet) leak down, even over several months during winter.
