2305 3ph

does anyone else notice on your 2305 the 3ph drops while having a blade or balist box on back while using the tractor? it also drops a couple of inchs overnight. talked with the dealer and said don't worry about it. it happens all the time valve open or closed. any info would be great.

I've noticed that mine will drop slowly if the 'speed' valve is open (don't know the tech name for it). But if its shut, it won't move. I would think that some movement would be normal over time - that's a lot of weight hanging on an open fluid system. There's no sense in worrying about a couple of inches overnight, just remember to pick it up again before moving the machine. Better yet, don't leave it up overnight, there's always that minimal dropping hazard to think about...

Yuh, I thought the conventional wisdom is, if you need the rockshaft up to work on something on the 3ph, fine, but when you "park" it, drop the hitch, and whatever's hitched to it, to the ground.

sounds good, just making sure it's me not the tractor
