How To Adjust This?

[wushaw]

That A L2800/3400 you got there?
Set your spacing at 26" inside measurment and enjoy . Since this is your first time to run the tiller did you adjust the PTO shaft length accordingly if it needed it?

Thanks wushaw...I will adjust to 26". I had read elsewhere that the PTO shaft on new tillers may have to be cut down if they are to long....so that was one of the first things I checked on mine. Luckily it seems to be fine. I ran several passes through the garden plot and the only trouble I noticed was the turnbuckles dragging. I think we will be good to go after the adjustments.

Kinda strange that your turnbuckles are outside the lift arms. On my tractor and others I've seen, they're inside. ...

Rigid link anti-sway devices should work equally well either side of the arms. Mine (greymarket Yanmar) are outside like the picture in the OP. Chains, on the other hand should be inside, between the arms. Otherwise, with no implement mounted, they won't restrain the arms from swinging out and contacting the tires.

I am also very surprised that the turn buckles are on the outside. I also have a kubota. I am not really familiar with that model. I have to ask are you wheels adjustable to widen your tractor.

Ground engageing thing you want a little free play,,maybe an inch side to side,,or you'll break something,,center it and adjust so you got an even amount of the inch or so free play,,[it generally gets tighter as you lower and thats where you need the free play,,lowered],,,thingy

Here is where to measure and then adjust your sway links to where you have about an inch of free play. Where the tiller will sway back and forth about an inch.

Jerry that pretty impressive picture work!

For you guys who have chains or turn buckles on your lift arms, all you have to do is use a rubber bungee cord hooked between the arms when no implement is attached and they won't contack the tires, but y'all knew that, just foregot to tell him.....

garren,
I have an L3400 which has the same setup on the 3PH as you. With standard Cat 1 implements and R4 tires there is only about 1.5 to 2 inches between the turnbuckles and the tires. Adjust the turnbuckles to where there is just a little movement and tighten those lock nuts. Use a wrench or screwdriver to hold the turnbuckles and tighten the nuts tight or they will come loose and the turnbuckles will rub the tires. Do not remove the check chains.
