I have an air-suspension seat on my 3039R.
The back-rest moved on me when I was fiddling with the rear window.
I was facing backwards with my knee on the seat and leaned on the top of the backrest with my arm rather heavily, and it tilted way to far back. It made a gear-stripping sound.

I can't see any adjustment for it, the manual says nothing about it and my dealer/salesman has no idea how to adjust it.

So, how does it adjust, short of just grabbing it and forcing it back into a comfortable position?

I figured it out.

I found a little lever that releases all tension and allows the seatback angle on the Deere 3039R to be adjusted.

The lever is camouflaged behind the seatbelt and is about 1/2" wide and 3/4" long.
