My Kubota B7800 has pins to lock the mowing deck in the up position so I can use the 3 point hitch without having to remove the mowing deck e.g. a box blade for grading my gravel driveway. Is there a way to lock the 3 point hitch in the up position so that I can mow without taking off the box blade? Thanks. This is my first tractor so my knowledge is very limited. I don’t know how I lived this long without tractors in my life!

Which is behind your heels when you are sitting in the tractor seat.

Blue is flow control valve.
Red pedal is probably differential lock for improved rear wheel/tire traction when moving forward or back in a straight line. Step on it to engage only when the tractor is stationary. Hold it down with your heel as long as you want both rear wheels/tires engaged for traction.
All this is in the B7800 Operator's Manual.

YES. WE UNDERSTAND.

If you lock the "flow control valve" the 3 point hitch will stay up , but also the mower will stay up. The lift power for raising the mower is supplied by the 3 point hitch raising. As far as I know there is no way on a B7800 to keep the 3 point hitch in the up position and have the mower on the ground.

Correct. Mower lift linkage is clamped to one or both 3 point lift arms. Any 3 point implement will have to be removed in order to use the midmount mower properly.
Well not really. You just need to figure out a way to keep the attachment off the ground. With some thought that may not mean the attachment has to come off.
