Have had my MF1526 about a year now and I'm frustrated with the turnbuckle adjustable lift link on the 3-pt. While using a 3-pt implement the turnbuckle 'walks' loose. After two or three hours the right side of the implement will hang several inches lower than the left side when it is raised. In the case of my five foot flail mower the right side can drop so much that at full lift it is only a few inches off the ground. So every couple hours I have to stop and use a wrench to tighten the turnbuckle back up to level the lift arms. Is this normal for these tractors? I don't see any way to lock the turnbuckle.
