3ph lowering limit on a B7300

[DmansPadge]

Hey guys. I have been involved in a similar discussion on another forum but I wanted to get some of the Kubota guys input. I have a B7300 and I will soon be buying a 4ft brushhog. I had asked some questions about setting the height on the brushhog. Sneakypete gave me some great info on using check chains which seems easy enough. However, I was looking through my owners manual, and noticed that there is an adjustment to change the lowering limit of the 3ph. It is simply a bolt that you can screw in or out to change the lowering limit of the 3ph. It is located just to the right of the lift arm. The only guy I know that has a tractor like mine is Sneakypete and he said he has never tryed using it. I was wondering if anyone else has this option and ever uses it? I know I would have to adjust it from implement to implement, but, once I put on the brushhog it will stay on for extended amounts of time so I'm not worried about that.

Thanks!

Yep. I have the same adjustment on my BX. I have used it with success for my rake before I had guage wheels.

Thank you! I posted this one a few days ago and I didn't get any replies!

Does this take the strain off the hydraulics? Does it work like using check chains would and let the 3ph rest at the desired level?

Thanks!
