what makes hydraulic control lever return to center. my bx2200 hydraulic control lever wheel not return to center after pulling it up the whole way in lift mode after you let go of the lever it returns to the down position instead of center and the blade drops. I must hold up on the lever in the center position to keep the blade up.

Usually there are two opposing springs that force the piston to a center position when released. If one of those springs is broken it might cause what you describe.
