Can anyone help me adjust the drop rate of the 3 point on an 806 Farmall? Thanks

Are you wanting it so speed up or slow down? Are you familiar with the draft control?

I have a large rotary rake on it and when you lower it it falls like a rock. I need it to go down slower. Draft does not change this. Thanks

Do you not have a descent control knob under the seat ?

This knob is turned in to decrease the drop speed. and turned all the way in to lock for transport.

No knob on this one

It may be a T handle, or something similar, but I believe almost every tractor has a control to change the descent speed.

I inherited an old 706...i don't recall ever seeing a rate descent control knob like is on my Kubota.

I am pretty sure it's all tied into the draft control system. The draft control is the outer lever, next to your 3pt control. Fully forward should be off, then it goes from light load to heavy.

I suspect if operating your draft control isn't making any difference, you will need to rebuild the draft control valve. Perhaps there is an adjustment on the valve itself (not sure).

You should see a link to IH tractor parts - here you can pull up a parts schematic and see what's what. Since I am on my iPhone, I can't load the pages..but I have used this site in the past to troubleshoot (and order parts). Hope this helps.

NOTE: I edited my parts link..for some reason my local supplier's parts link no longers works...but this one does!
