3-Point Hitch TC33D 3pt hitch question

[jrood]

The 3pt hitch will raise but won't lower. I have to turn off the tractor and wait for the pressure to lessen so it lowers. Any ideas? Thanks

Not sure about the 33's, but my TC40D has a knob under the front of the seat that controls down speed of the 3-pt.

Check the flow control valve under the seat as in above post. It may have been turned all the way which will slow it down.

I wish all my problems were so easy to solve. I knew about that valve, but forgot all about it. My wife was on the tractor mowing and probably turned it when she was trying to adjust the seat. I'm so happy she's out there mowing for me, I'm not even going to tell her. Thanks guys.
