3 point hitch qustions

[jack707]

I am going to be using the 3 point hitch soon and from what I seen on you tube its a easy thing but I have a few question's for you since this tractor is new to me.
First question I must be doing something wrong here those levers in the pic. are supposed to raise and lower the bar then I slide the far one up nothing happens.

#2 The top part of the hitch has no bar for the 3 points I saw other tractor that have a bar and it raches down show what ever your hooking up doesn't swing,does framtrac just connect there? or do I need to buy a bar to put there.

Are you saying that the 3PH lift arms do not "lift" when you move the Position Control lever to the #1 position?

You are missing the top link. You can purchase a replacement at farm supply stores such as TSC.

I'm saying when I move the lever up the arms are supposed to move up and I don't see that happing do I have to do anything else for them to move?.

I thought so no TSC around here just Fleet farm.

In wisc you have Fleet-Farm all over, check there.

Here's a convenient trouble-shooting guide for your problem: Waters Tractor, LLC.

What the heck kind of set-up is that? You need to find a cup that will fit over that PTO shaft and fill it with lithium grease. Put it back on and leave it. Need to see a picture from the side. You can buy a top link at TSC for around $20 but I can't see where it would attach.

Thanks Stonypoint! .I'll take it out and drive it awhile and then see if the arms lift.

When I picked it up the man tied a lever to the bucket so I would not have to use it. I untied it and guess what the arms moved up and down!.

That lever runs the rear remotes by a spool valve. There is a setting on the spool for single or double acting cylinder. We have to bungee it forward to get our back hoe to work. With it bungee backwards it will divert from the 3ph. What is the rear remote controlling?

Here is a PDF of a page in the Speeco Catalog. Their online catalog has this with a neat thing that you point to an item and it matches it to the list of parts. Here also is the link to that page.
