I tried this on the Mitsu forum, but it is a quiet spot lately.....so my apologies. My Mistu/Satoh Beaver (370) 3pt lift seems too fast, very jerky - much faster than any other tractor I have owned. I dont see a flow adjustment under the seat, is there anything external that can be adjusted?
Back blading is very tricky as I can only lift in 3-4inch jerks - shakes the whole tractor. On the positive, it lifts very heavy implements with no resistance!
Note, this tractor has a Johnson Workhorse 10 FEL plumbed from the gearcase; could that be a factor?
Second question - The Johnson loader has down pressure to easily lift the front wheels, yet it only will lift about 300lbs of dirt - and begins to squeal lifting anything more than 200lbs. Is that normal? Should I have the valves serviced?
