None of the N's have live hydraulics or live PTO (when you push clutch in you lose power to both). That said the hydraulics should at least hold its set position for a minute without bleeding down as long you do not move the lever with the clutch in. 8N's have a position control and a draft conrtol lever to the right under the seat on the control valve block. Make sure you have the lever in the position control position (used for mowing, blading etc),. If you have it in the draft position (used for furrow plowing) it may not hold position when you push clutch.
If it still will not hold a set postion then you have 2 options:
a) fix the hydraulic problem could be simple or could be more involved.
b) Use limit chains just like a 9N or 2N has to use because they do not have position control unless outfitted with a zane thang add-on.
