G'day lugnut.
For some reason I did not get the whole thread in your pm.
So that lot may not help ,so try again.
With the lift cover removed to carry out a complete adjustment does require service tools ,let me try to guide you through the procedure without the service tools .
First with the cover on its back and the lift arms in the FULLY RAISED position set the Position lever in the TRANSPORT position and the DRAFT lever in between the two lines which are stamped into the metal on the DRAFT quadrant.
Undo the position control adjusting locknut "circled in blue",screw it out till at the end of the thread but not all the way out then undo the lock nut on the draft adjustment set-screw"marked in red circle",
You do not have the adjusting tool so push the control arm with about three pounds of force and at the same time watch the gap between the control arm and the dash-pot piston ,this is the small rod with the little ball on the end ,with pressure on the control arm adjust till you can just see a very slight gap between the two at this point lock it up.
Next set the DRAFT lever in the UP position ,all the way back.pull the lift arms up towards you and put a one inch spacer ,a socket!! etc. between the lift cam arm and the lift cover this will hold the lift cam roughly in the position you need for the position control adjustment,set the POSITION CONTROL lever about one half inch from all the way up and adjust the small Allen grub screw in until you get the same result as you did with the Draft Adjustment that is adjust till you can JUST see daylight between the dash-pot ball end and the control lever with about 3 lbs force on the control arm.
That is the hydraulic system adjusted as near as you need to get the linkage to work .
To carry out a complete adjustment requires that the draft toplink assembly be removed ,serviced ,adjusted and renstalled.
again this is only to possibly get you going .
Happy days.
