B20 Loose 3 PT Lever

[Anonymous Poster]

I am selling my B20 and want to make sure it is in the best tip-top shape. One thing to adjust--- The lever for the 3 point will not hold position-- just drops to the bottom. I have used the stop pins, but I know this should not be, because it used to work fine. I did pick up a set of concave spring washers that are meant to hold tension on the lever ($3.00). Dealer said these sometime get "flat" and need to be replaced. I took off the lock nut , but for the life of me cannot get the lever to come off the shaft. I even have a dealer spec drawing that shows how it goes together, and it really should just slid off so i can put the new spring washers in place. Have used liquid wrench and elbow grease, but do not want to break the shaft that leads into the control box. Any thought or suggestions?

Sometimes a little heat from an oxy/accel torch works wonders! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Tried the heat, wouldn't budge. Kubota wins on this one, dealer job.
