I've made and installed,the position devise (plans from Rick) it seems to work, but I'm not quite sure of how to adjust it.

Okay, I know what you are referring to now. The adjustable stop has nothing to do with the function of the position control devise. That said it is a setting marker. Thus, when you get the position you want. You can moce the stop so that the "point" rests on the tube. Thus if you need to raise you lift while working, i.e. at the end of a row, to clear a stump, etc. Then you can easily find your origional position.

It works like the wing nut stop on the lever control quadrant.

That help?

I just bought a 1958 Fergusen and noticed the chat about the adjustable stop. My tractor either goes all the way up or all the way down. Is this normal and if so, will this adjustable stop remedy the problem?

It soulds like you have something else going on. The adjustable stop we are talking about is marker for the operator to place the control lever back to the same position each. It will not stop the hydrolics from moving to a commanded position.

If you have lift control concerns post back in a new thread and someone smarter than I should be able to help.

I would also be interested in the information to build the depth control for the Ferguson hydraulic lift system. Thanks.

Jeff is the "depth control" that Randy refered to the same as the "position control" devise. I built the position control from the plans on parts and pieces. If there is another device I would be interested in it also. Thanks, Roy

Depth Control and position control are two seperate systems. Depth control is properly called Draft Control. Detail discussions of the differences may be read in the archives. Depth control is inherent in your tractor as produced. (that big spring under the seat is part of the Draft control system.) Adjustment and setting instructions are found in the owners manual.

So how if you don't mind sharring, how much and how long did it take you to make you position control, and how does it work for you.

How do you mean adjust it? The only adjustment necessary is the spring compression. Tighten the screw that will compress the spring on the cam. The position you want is enough compression so that you can move the finger tip control by hand yet as the lift arms move the cam and square tube will not slip.

You can test this by moving the finger tip control from full down top full up quickly. Then before the arms have time to complete respond let go of the lever. It should be pushed froward and come to a neutral position.

To get to the height you want. Move the lever and hold onto it until the desired height is reached then you can let go of the lever.

Hope this answers your question.

BTW how long did it take you to make it? What is you cost?

Jeff
