Shibaura 3 point computer box!

[donkeydave]

I just got a Shibaura D26F and love it so far, but don't like the 3 point control box. I have not been able to figure it out and don't know how to read Japanese.

First I was not able to get the arms all the way down. Then, this morning, they just happened to be down. Maybe I hit something without noticing. I hooked up my scraper and next thing you know, they were all the way up and I couldn't get them down. I can't seem to get anything but the right side extender section to work. What gives?

Anyone have the translation for how to use the box or a manual in English or ???

Thanks,

Dave

I was able to work the three point today. The seller's son came and helped. He also took pictures and is emailing a friend in Japan to translate the directions.

We found that there is an adjuster on the left arm. By tweaking the nuts, we could adjust the length of 3 pt. travel.

So...it's all good for now! Some day, I may want to get rid of the computer and just go with a simple toggle set up.

Did you ever find out anything else about the adjustments or how the "box" works? Did you get the translation?

Never got the translation.

I took out the "brain" and used 2 toggles. It worked for a day or 2 and then messed up again. I am looking into finding solenoids.

Can anyone out there get them or know a good Shibaura supplier?

Check out my other post for more details.
