Dropping off altogether? Could be a lot of things like does it have a quick hitch? If it does the ram that locks onto the bucket might be the problem. Could be a hydraulic problem. Is there a damaged pipe leaking.

If no external leaks then either the hydraulic cylinder is leaking internally or the valve is leaking internally.
