Gentlemen, Thanks for all the good advice earlier this week on getting the hydraulics of my Super C working. The reservoir needed about 2 ½ pints of oil to bring it to the bottom of the filler hole. Per the instructions, moving the control levers back and forth many times with the filler plug out got things working. Two of the three control levers (single rockshaft arm and fast hitch) now work correctly. I need help on trouble-shooting and getting the control lever that operates the dual rockshaft arms to work. The left touch control lever, which operates the single rockshaft arm that controls the tilt of the fast hitch works great. It has the full range or arc of motion, about 8 inches of travel. However, the touch control lever, which controls the dual rockshaft arms for a front-mount implement like a cultivator, only has the rear 4 inches of travel. I have taken the arm connecting the lever with the pump off and you get full travel of the lever by the steering wheel when unattached. You cannot seem to move the arm attached to the pump when unattached from the control lever to get the front 4 inches of travel. And if you look on the bottom of the pump-reservoir casting, you can see that the arm only goes about half way to the stop. The stops on the bottom for the single rockshaft control lever have the full range of travel and go all the way to the stops in both directions when the lever is moved correspondingly. You can look up from the bottom and see that the arms are or are not against the stops. This is more easily seen from the left side. On the right side the starter interferes with the direct line of sight. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. I finished assembling the left side cultivator today. All that is left to get the restoration complete is put the teeth on; the plow bolts for that will be here on Monday. But I cannot get everything to lift high enough to load. That front 4 inches of travel is needed. If I can get this problem corrected the tractor with cultivator on the front and carry-all platform on the fast hitch will go on a tractor ride on Sunday and to a parade on the Fourth of July. OT: We were blessed with about 3.5 inches rain in the last week. It was very timely and very, very much needed.
