Kubota L3240 GST
I have a L3240 and when loading the tractor on the trailer with the disc attached I have a lot of problem dranging the disc on the ground once I get half way up the trailer ramps. It is not as bad with the brush cutter but it has a wheel.. The owners manual doesnt give any spec on the lower lift arms. It only gives a table for the top link.. So if I adjust the lift pins the 3pt will lift higher? In the pics below moving arms to the top holes will make it raise a little higher??
what are the other holes long the length of the arm for -- more drastic changes in lift height?
Is there any drawbacks to changing these to lift an implement higher? or than a drive shaft problem?

That is what the extra holes are for. I have a planter that I have to move to back hole to give more lift. Then when I put the snowblower on I have to move the arms forward or the snowblower will be lifted to high.

Basically, any adjustment that reduces the difference in space between the upper and lower arms will raise the implement higher. The position of the upper arms are fixed so the change is applied to the position of the lower arms when making the adjustment.

The main drawback will be lift weight capacity. In the position for maximum travel (most lift height) the 3pt will loose lifting capacity. That's why the option is given.

I use a hydraulic top link to kick stuff up to clear this sort of thing; very handy addition to just about any tractor.
