MF275 hydraulic issues

Thought I'd give this a try on the main forum..
My dad has a MF275. Sometime back (about a year or so) one of the hydraulic levers crapped out. I've used it since then, and it doesn't work worth a darn. No matter how it's hooked up (loader, baler, etc) the short lever always works fine. The long lever works fine in one direction, but in the other direction it's VERY hard to move. It doesn't move very much, and you have to really strain to move it and hold it in place to operate the cylinder.
I'd like to tackle this now that the hay season is slowing down. Does it sound like shadetree work? How expensive?
My dad's also been talking about getting older and how his right arm tends to be a little sore. I wonder why.
Thanks!
