3-Point Hitch Three Point Hitch Wont Go Down

[MikePA]

Raises up fine, in fact it's at the top of it's travel. When I push the lever all the way forward, the arms do not move. I checked the level and it's moving, but the arms will not go down.

Any ideas?

MikePA, do you have a small knob located right at the front & bottom of your seat close to floor level ? If you do, if this knob is turned all the way in (clockwise), the 3 pt hitch can be raised to it's maximum height but cannot be lowered. By turning this knob counterclockwise you can control the rate of descent of the hitch.

/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif I had asjusted this knob right after I parked the tractor the last time I used it. I wanted to slow the 3ph down and must have turned it just shy of full clockwise. Thanks!
