Thanks for the pictures. Mine is a 7200 JR. Not exactly sure what the differences may be between the 2 of them. I have tried mine in both the top and bottom holes (of the top link). I "think' my next step is to get an adjustable link for the left hand side and just raise them up as far as possible. Or, see if I can drill a hole further out on the link as suggested by someone else. Any other suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks for your time,

greg

RayBee,

You mentioned adjusting the "lift quadrant'. Can you provide a little more info for me. I have tried adjusting everything I can see that should be adjusted and it still doesn't seem to make a difference. I went and measured my augers. They are 46" also. My "boom pole' looks a little different then yours. I wonder if it is shorter. That would account for a lower lift IF my thinking is correct. My "boom pole" is 66.5" from the end of the top link attachment to the swivel point. The model number on mine is a L7200-JR. I'll reckon a guess that the boom poles are different sizes (lengths)

Greg: .....I measured my boom pole @ 74" from the top link connector
to the swivel. This could definately be your problem. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

I also measured (14 1/2") from bottom link pins Centerline ....to the bracket bolt on the spine of boom (in the rearmost hole). For your reference.

The lift quadrant ie. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif ( Hydraulic position control on right fender).

Good news. Thanks to RayBees suggestion, I went out and poked around the tractor some more last night. I found a lift adjustment near the lift arms on the right hand side of the tractor (as you are looking at the tractor from behind) It is under the seat area. Mine (a Kubota 2710) had 2 nuts on it. I "observed" the lift arm mechanism and realized I might could make it raise higher by adjusting these nuts. I adjusted them down and my PHD now clears the ground /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Very cool. Thanks for your patience RayBee. I was afraid I had bought a very expensive piece of equipment for nothing. Now it appears I have a useful tool.

Thanks again,

greg

Greg; ...... I'm happy for you! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Now be safe with that PHD, ......a lot could go wrong, and quickly if you
don't stay focused. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Good luck with the B2710. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif ....Ray
