everyone howls about the position control(or lack of it). I adjusted mine in away that seems to work for me. you are supposed to tighten the reaction spring tee until you can just turn the spring by hand. This sets the draught c0ntrol. I found by reefing the spring up abit more, (about 3 turns on my 52 tea), I have,to an extent disabled the draught control. Great for mowing, grading. Loosen it back off if I want to plow. Doesn't seem to be hurting anything after 1 year. Any feedback? Thanks, Kev

Kevin,
Will it hold in whatever position you set it with a piece of equipment?

Kevin, This is a protective device Harry Ferguson designed to prevent major tractor damage and operator injury from hitting an unseen object. Disabling it by tightening the yoke may subject you to these perils. I won't try to outthink anyone with that many inventions/patents. The "Ferguson system" is still used, a testimony to its worth. Good luck with your modifications.

Like i said,this kind of thing should only be done for mowing. Ground engaging implements should only be used with the draught control operational. Cranking up the spring only numbs the draught control. It still works somewhat.
