Hi everybody, I'm new here so I gotta get the hang of this. I'm a farmer so I'm pretty farmiliar with equipment, but I have a not-so-knowledgeable neighbor. He has a 2011 kubota, which I believe is a B 2360 or something close to that. My question is, is there any way to lock the 3 pt. arms on that tractor so that they won't lift freely when upward pressure is put on them. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Grab a couple wrenches, and take 'em off.

That's normal. Tell us more about what he is doing and why he wants the arms "locked."

I don't think so.. I believe they are made to "float" by design.

I do this to keep the trailer tongue from lifting if the load shifts aft.

Nice, but what happens if you accidentally hit the lift lever? Won't something bend?

Probably, so don't hit the lift lever. Sometimes playing devils advocate can keep you from getting anything done.

Heh - heh - that's funny and very true.
Actually, on this 12 HP machine the pump just goes into bypass.

That is gosh darn clever.
