It sounds like maybe he was putting oil in the rear end, thinking that's where the hydraulic fluid went.
Perfect example of why people should get an owner's manual, read it, and understand it, before they even touch their new tractor.
There are three possibilities for why the loader is slowly going down:
1. Oil is leaking past the piston in the cylinder.
2. Oil is leaking past the valve and back into the reservoir.
3. Oil is leaking out of a hose or fitting, on to the ground.
The hydraulics and rear end are separate on an M. Rear end takes 13 (IIRC) gallons of heavy gear lube. Belly pump takes 6 quarts of hydraulic fluid.
Being overfull, the rear end is leaking past the input shaft seal. If you put the correct amount of oil in (until it just starts to run from the check plug on the left side of the torque tube), the leak will be slowed down greatly.
