Default Hydraulic lift issues on 1250

Hey guys!

It's been a long time since I last posted, but I've put the 1250 through the runner on everything since (tilled my garden with it, mowed my 1+ acre with it all summer, plowed with it all last winter, and leveled my driveway with the back blade). I just threw the tiller back on to till under my garden for the winter and I noticed that not every time I pull back on the lift lever (mine broke off and it's actually a pair of needle vice grips as the lever) it won't always raise the attachment.

So I took another pair of vice grips and at the hydraulic valve, I lifted up the lever from there and it lifted no issues. So luckily, it seems like with some tweaking this is an easy fix.

Is there a way to adjust the movement of the lift lever? And since I'm using vice grips, maybe this is a good time to replace it with something better while adjusting things...

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
