wkw, If the draft lever moves when your lift lever moves, it is from friction between the concentric shafts. The draft lever should not move with your lift lever. For the implements you mentioned, you do not need true draft control. You can control the depth on the fly using the depth lever. The only implements that I was ever able to get the draft control to work on was a Pittsburg Frame Cultivator with a B414 or a Ford Dexter. Heavier work such as disking or plowing would wreck the draft control in short order in my experience. Basically, the deeper or lower you set the draft lever, the deeper the implement should work with the depth lever set to the same point. For the work you are doing, I would simply turn the draft control off and go with touch control. I do not remember how to do that on the B414.
