I've read all the comments below and I have to say. There is no more stress on the hydraulic system with the arms raised or a cylinder holding up an implement when it's parked than there is with the engine running. The same stress is on the hydraulic circuits holding the implement up when the tractor is running or when it's not running. Either way the hydraulic system has to build enough pressure to raise the implement then hold it up. Yes I believe having implements raised and parked is a very big safety issue which is called Kinetic Energy. Yes if parked and the implement is down and some one has moved the control lever to the raise position then the implement raises when engine is started is a safety concern. But we had a rule around home years ago, no riders and stay clear of equipment, because mounted implements just don't trail behind a tractor they can move side ways when the tractor is turning. I was teaching my 11 year old nephew how to drive my zero turn mower a few years ago and had to teach him about tail swing. Then he was digging divets in my yard each time her turned around. I told him to slow down when turnning around. His reply was, "I do it this was on my video game"... I told him his not playing no dam video game.
