When I used my B3200 a couple of days ago and lowered the 3PH it operated differently than my old B7800. On the B7800, as I remember, by pushing the lowering handle forward it would lower 3PH a small amount with each push and to lower all the way you have to push it all the way forward and hold it. The B3200 doesn't drop the 3PH any when you push the lever forward until you push it all the way into the slot and then it starts dropping till you let off. No incremental steps. Know you can adjust the speed so it's not really a problem, just different. I stopped by Barlows Equipment yesterday to see if mine was operating properly and the closest new one to the front door operated the same way. So, if you get a B3200 then that's the way it operates unless someone has one that operates differently. On the Kubota web site the B7800 and B3200 both say they have the 1/4 inching valve on 3PH. I had assumed that meant it drops it 1/4" per push of the lever as on the B7800 but maybe that's not what that means. My L3240HST had position control (set it to a number and that's where it went and stayed). I know some say that's the only way to go but for my uses the hold it till it reaches where you want it is OK and pull it back till it reaches where I want it is OK.
