Brian,

Are you saying that your "drop rate knob" below the seat (see the attached pdf for a visual) is full CW and the 3ph still slams down?

Full CCW should let 3ph lower real fast .......Full CW should make the 3ph take an eternity to lower.

did that
still goes notchy notchy notchy, thump thump thump, then slams the final couple inches.
just REALLY REALLY REALLY SLOW.
