49 8N Hydraulics Won't Keep Rear Blade Up

Bartman, don't mean to hijack your thread. Figured my fix would be similar to yours.

I assume this bolt gets adjusted, when clutch is pressed down, there is almost no movement. Clutch goes half down before any tension.

buckeyefarmer, no problem, I'm always up to learn more about tractors, even if it's not about mine.

I had already started my own thread in New Holland / Ford , but didn't realize there was the vintage tractor forum here where I should have posted. And I've only Been on here 10 yrs or so.....
But this is for dad's tractor, he bought the 600 back around yr 2000. He has an 8N, with a lot of parts missing, a 9N that was his dad's, and I bought him a kubota L5030 back in 2004. I grew up using the 8N. We did everything with it, cut, rake and baled hay, pull out timber, plow, disc, cultivate, plant corn, haul firewood...
Helped rebuild the engine, but that was yrs ago.

well, if you want help with it, just let me know.

Definitely will need the help next time I'm there to mess with it. I don't think dad has a book for it.
