I have read the previous dialog on position control from the B7500 v. B2410 thread, so I know what it is and how 3pt height is set on the units with and without position control. Additionally, I have read what Muhammad says:
The 3point hitch should have a high lift capacity for
starters, and also position control is a feature that should be
available or come standard on a tractor, unless it is an
economy model stripped of features to be offered at a low
price. Position control will allow you to set the 3point hitch to
a specific height and hold it there. Without position control,
the 3point hitch leaks down from the set level. If you wont
be using the 3point hitch much, this feature may not matter,
but for frequent or heavy use of the 3point hitch, position
control is almost a musthave feature, and will improve your
productivity.
What I really want to know is how bad is it not having position control? What cannot be done without position control? If it is almost a "must have" feature, then why would Kubota make $10,000+ tractors without it, rendering those units inadequate in 3pt hitch capability? Does the 3pt hitch really "leak down" on the 7500 like Muhammad says? I am trying to get down to the essentials of position control to figure out if I need it.
Lastly, this is my first post. I have been reading this site for a few weeks, educating myself along the way. This site is terrific. Thanks to Muhammad and to everyone who posts. If this site were a PTO, it'd be <font color=red> LIVE! </font color=red>
