1206 three point problems

IHNate · Oct 18, 2011

I have a 67 farmall 1206 that had some hydraulic leaks. One of the leaks was on the draft sensing shaft of the three point. I completely disassembled the three point, drained all the hydraulic fluid and replaced the two o-rings that were leaking around the shaft. I put everything back together without putting the three point arms on, and when I started the tractor up, the top three point arms went all the way up and I cannot get them to go back down. Everything else hydraulically works fine. I tried working the draft sensing lever back and forth and I still can not pull the arms down. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

when ya put it back together ya got the arm coming up from the bottom to the linkage hanging down from the top on the wrong side . You can access the problem thru the top link plate and ya can pull the draft scening arm around it and get it on the back side . Once you get the top link plate off you can look in and on the right side you will see the one coming up from the bottom and the one hanging down from the top . The one on top needs to be on the back side of the one from the bottom.

Two o-rings on cat 3 like 1206 has.
