Grant,

You also need to know how to use the draft control mode. Position control mode is self explanitory. Below is a link to a reply I made than should tell you all you need to know to use draft control effectively.

Regards,
Larry

Grant, That is for Position Control and Draft Control. When it's pointing up, it's in Position Control, and when laying down, or forward, you have draft control. Draft Control is for plowing or anytime you put an implement into the ground, such as with a rear scoop, if you are pulling it. It won't work if you are pushing the scoop in reverse, to fill the scoop. I use Draft Control with my scoop. Works great for me. Also I use it for working the ditches along my drive with my back blade. I can set it and forget it. If I get into some hard ground, the Draft Control takes over and raises the blade just enough to keep going and then settles back to where it was set before. Good luck!!!

Another one of those oft asked questions...

Click on "View Archives" at the top of the page, then click "Keyword Search", then type in "position control" (without the quotes). Click Search and you'll get about a thousand posts about the hydraulics and that little lever.

In a nutshell, it lets you switch between setting the level of the lift yourself versus having the system adjust it for you automatically. The automatic setting is mostly for plowing and is also useful with a back blade. Vertical is "position control" - you set the lift height. Horizontal is "draft control" - the system adjusts the lift height based on the resistance it senses.
