Do you guys operate your box blades in Draft Control mode, assuming you have draft control on your tractor?
Huh? You just described "float" mode.Markey said:When draft control is engaged, the implement will follow the contour of the land. .
Ok, so how is that "following the coutour of the land " with a boxblade? With a plow maybe, but not with a boxblade. The only "contouring" with a BB would be on rolling ground, when the rise and fall of the tractor front wheels fall outside the parameters of the draft control setting.Z-Michigan said:Sort of, but not really. Float mode means the implement can be pushed up and down. Draft control means that the implement is hydraulically raised whenever there is significant pull back on the tractor (as measured by the sensing link, which is commonly the top link) and then lowered again to the setting on the position control lever when the pull is reduced.
Some may. But I'm curious as to your motives here. Your profile lists a tractor WITH draft control AND a boxblade. Why don't you just find out for yourself/TNhobbyfarmer said:HMMMM.......Don't think we have come to a consensus here. Others want to jump in?
