260 series - Deck lift malfuction

Recommended Posts

First time poster and reaching out to the pros here before I dig into the issue as I'm unfamiliar with hydrostatic drives and the related components on my 260 series tractor.  I can rebuild my 8-32 in my sleep but I haven't dug into this other rider yet. 

I have a 260 series riding mower with an adjustable deck lift that has been showing signs of failing.  It used to stay at the adjusted height until a few days ago - it would slowly drop over a period of hours.  Now the deck won't lift without holding the switch for a while  - and the deck only goes up about halfway and drops back down as soon as you let off the switch.   Am I right in thinking it's the lift actuator (either failed/leaking)?  No other symptoms, it still drives, cuts and runs fine, just stuck with the deck always down. 

Thanks in advance!
