I have posted a couple of threads concerning the 3pt on my MF165. Several of you have helped me tremendously to get this thing up and running. I have been successful in getting the 3pt to operate, however, when the 3pt reaches the top, it forces the diverter valve handle wants to pop back to neutral. It almost seems that there is an overpressurization issue. Is there an adjustment that I can make to the linkage that will correct this. I do not have the I&T shop manual. I have read other posts referencing this adjustment. Is there anybody that can help with this?

Thank you

Have you tried to adjust your max lift height at your lift lever? Should always be able to grab your 3-point links and be able to raise them several inches by hand.
