Tom, I guess it depends . . . , but my guess is "probably not". Now let's see if I can figure out how to explain what I mean. Try raising, then lowering your 3-point to the maximum direction both up and down with NO implement attached, and see how low the lift arms go (how close to the ground). Then back the tractor close to the box blade and raise the 3-point hitch so the lift arms are the same height as the pins you're going to attach them to on the box blade. You had to raise them over half way, didn't you? So, in other words, when the box blade is hooked up, the 3-point hitch is over half way up to start with, even if you do push the lever all the way to the lowest point, the arms can't go down any farther because the blox blade is holding them up, and by the same token, you can pull the lever back slowly, but nothing happens until you pull it back past the height that the box blade was already holding the arms.
Now that's what I found on my Kubotas, so if your Deere is different, then ignore this message and maybe someone else has a better answer. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
