Anyone know how to lower detent pressure on M7040 scv short of removing detent balls?? What is purpose of set screw on opposite end of spool that cable attaches to a cab tractor?
Thanks,Jim

I got some of the same issues.

I think some of the issues is with the cables. I have it on my list to lube them, and not quite sure how to do that either.

Softer spring in detent will probably do it. Can you post a pic of the set screw & spool valve?

Same thing here. Curious to see if there's a fix.

I'm not familiar with that valve but it looks like a limit-stop screw to limit the movement of the internal component.

If you mark it you could try and back it off half a turn and see. Always can put it back to original position if it doesn't help your problem.

I backed set screw out 2 full turns & lowered detent pressure. Now scv lever is easier for me to operate. I baled 64 rd bales yesterday.
