![]() Remove the socket and rod/extension bar and push the raise/ lower lever all the way forward if an older tractor or rearward if a console model. With the engine idling and the 3 pt arms down slowly turn the nut counterclockwise until the arms just begin to raise. Its a castle nut locked in place by a roll pin. Inside the bung hole is a nut that you unlock by putting the socket on it and pushing the nut back. Tape or better yet, weld a 9/16" socket to a rod or extension bar about 18" long. Remove the bung hole plug at the rear of the seat. If you go past 1 drop it down and start over. After completely lowering the arms set the front or leading edge of the dash or console lever on 1. If it raises all the way up set the L&D lever in the middle slot. If not then adjust the cable length as described in the manual. Try it in D and see if it will raise all the way up. There is a third scenario, look where your Load/Draft lever is set. Read this entire post before attempting to adjust the draft control! However, the operating hinge adjustment screws must be properly adjusted, or the valve will pop again when the system exceeds its normal range of rotation and binds. The lift will have hydraulic pressure once again. Remove the plug, pull the spring and valve out, clean them and reinstall. If during testing or if the cable failed, and the rock shaft exceeded its range of movement that valve will open, it also will release under loads that exceed the system rating. It looks like a bolt, there is a spring under that plug that holds the relief valve closed. Under the right side of the seat, under the cover, there is a plug at the top rear of the hydraulic body. It is also possible the relief valve released, it must be manually reset 99% of the time that happens. The new cable is now too short and the operating hinge screws (1 and 2) need to be adjusted according to the instructions in section 127 on page 83 of your manual. The old cable had stretched and adjustments were made over time. Implements with Category II mast height 610 mm (24 in.) will normally use the upper two attaching holes.Common issue when replacing the cable. NOTE: Implements with Category I mast height 457 mm (18 in.) will normally use the lower two attaching holes. Upper hole (A) eliminates nearly all draft sensing. The rear of the implement droops and drags the ground as the implement is lifted. The hitch seems unresponsive in draft control operation and allows the engine speed to drop too far before raising the rockshaft. Move the center link attachment to holes (C) if: The draft control lever range is too small. ![]() The implement weight which can be lifted is reduced slightly with the center link attachment in the lower holes. The rear of the implement raises too much when lifted. Move the center link attachment to holes (B) if:Įxcessive hitch activity or hunting occurs in draft control operation. The position effects the draft sensing sensitivity. The draft sensing rockshaft center link attaching bracket has holes which allow three different positions for attaching the center link. That's not something I've ever seen before, and again, my dad's JD5055e doesn't behave the same way.Ĭlick to expand. #John deere draft control adjustment full#I don't have full range of motion using the rockshaft alone. At that point, the hitch rises a few more inches and is fully raised. I MUST pull the draft control lever all the way back to it's highest position as well. With the draft control lever all the way down (off position), I cannot fully lift an implement with the rockshaft lever. To preface this, I'm basing what I call "weird" on the difference of how my dad's JD5055e behaves versus this one. ![]() Since I've made it home and hooked a 6' mower to it, I've realized that there is some sort of weirdness going on with the rockshaft and draft control levers. I tested everything on it before I agreed to the sale, but the problem was the guy didn't have any implements to fully test the hitch. It looks great, 229 hours, extremely clean. I just bought a 2007 JD5203 last week and I'm feeling things out. ![]()
