Can anyone explain briefly what the top link control spring has to do with position control? Problems here are nothing new and adjustment and replacement has been discussed I just wanted to know how or why it affects position control.
On my 245 I mowed all season last year without problems. A month ago I tightened the top link to the mower to lift it high to block it up for blade service ( mower has the top link swivel for mower to articulate on ground). Anyway once the mower started to rise the lift stopped because it was pulling on the top link spring to hard I guess. The spring/yoke on this tractor is loose by maybe an 1/8" meaning I can pull it in/out and up/down about the same 1/8" or a little less. [/b]
