IMatch question

IMatch question -

Couldn't find this in any of the documentation - so I must ask others:

For those that know, should I level my IMatch / 3 point - in the extreme up position or the extreme down position just hovering above the ground, have ballast box attached ... thx

You will want the iMatch hitch to be vertical when the 3 point hitch is in the lowered position. This is the position when you are back up to and picking up your attachments. This assumes that the attachment has been parked on the same plane as where the tractor will be when picking it up. The iMatch works easiest when the attachment has been parked on a firm level surface and the tractor also will be level when approaching it. If this is not the case, some adjusting of the 3 point links may be required.

Assuming a flat parking space you want it level when just off the ground.

I think you will find that adding a hydraulic top link is going to make using the I Match much easier. Not a whole lot of point in having it if you have to get off the tractor to adjust the top link. I use it with top and tilt and it is very convienient.

Hydraulic top link, now that's the ticket - thx, for the advice - see another reason why I can't get banned -

If you are interested in the Hydro top link, here is a link that shows an istall and working with an I-match....

I'm assuming this will work with a 2305...?
