4110 Draft Control

[UncleBuck01]

Where Do you keep it when post hole digging and brush hogging ?????
1 - 5 , 1 being toward the front of tractor(steering wheel), 5 being toward rear of tractor (3pt hitch). In the past, I have kept it at 3 (middle ) But this time around it felt Like I was getting little downward pressure

Thanks
Buck

You should keep it in the off position. If you are using it for bush hogging or post hole digging you are asking for trouble. Every time it senses a change in ground pressure it is going to adjust the 3ph height.
Draft control was designed to work with ground engaging equipment ie-- a plow. If the plow digs in and bogs down the tractor the 3ph will raise, if there is no drag on the implement it will push the 3ph down. This type of control is not necessary with a bush hog or a post hole digger.

Buck,
Unless you are plowing, leave it in the 1 position.

Like busting a half dozen shear pins on ten holes, I agree
