F you use a chain to limit max height & system is still commanding 'lift' against the chains, then the pump will essentially be trying to lift more than it can, working very hard & most likely blowing past the overpressure relief valve. To do this on a long term basis just can't be 'good'. I expected Zane to answer you on this or I would have spoken up sooner.(quoted from post at 05:40:24 09/25/12) After doing some more research over the weekend it seems like your device Is by far the simplest way to add position control to a 2/9 N.
So mister Zane, I'll bite I'm interested. I'm sending you an email now.
I'm still wondering if I am safe to use a chain to limit my max height. Anybody know?
(quoted from post at 09:01:11 09/25/12) Some people go a simpler route and just cut the drive shaft. Something to think about though.
One quick fix would be to clamp a stop to your quadrant so your lift lever can only go up to a certain height.

It's not a question of length, but angle. The PTO is very low on the N, and when the mower is raised, the drive shaft strikes the front top of the mower deck. Limiting the movement of the lever won't do any good without position control. He should get a Zane Thang AND a stop for the lever. Without the Thang, he only has full up or full down- no stopping in between.
At least that's how my setup (2N with Farm Star brush cutter) is. I put a Zane Thang on and look back when I lift to make sure the shaft doesn't hit.
