I'm wondering if we did something wrong in that job. Sometimes when I lower the implement, it will suddenly just rise on its own. I remember being amazed at the time when I first read how the L/D mechanism worked. I surprises me that they don't all develop leaks, what with the abuse we put on the three point hitch doing things like pushing up privet with a box blade. [Reply]   [No Email]

If handle moves then the friction washers on handle are worn and need shimmed or replaced.   [Reply]  [No Email]

In fact, the implement often will come back up even while I still have my hand on the handle. It's like it has a mind of its own.   [Reply]  [No Email]

My neighbor noticed the same thing when he borrowed the 2130 to go over his field with a chisel plow. Whenever you want to take a vacation to East Alabama, let me know, and I'll arrange a demonstration. :) And I would even let you get the old 1020 running again too. Seriously, maybe I ought to start a separate thread on the strange lift behavior. But I'll spend some time reading the service manual first, so I'll understand better how it's supposed to work.   [Reply]  [No Email]
