The hydraulics are not supposed to hold up when the engine is switched of, why would you need that anyway? You don't need limiter chains or a position control to use that mower of yours, This has been discussed a lot over the years and we have a guy on here who sells Hogs and this is what he wrote some time ago in answer to a question like you have:- Posted by marlowe on June 23, 2004 at 16:01:09 from (209.103.204.81): In Reply to: position control...chains?? posted by mr chapp on June 23, 2004 at 06:16:49: dear mister chapp. i have sold and serviced hogs for years and see this all the time. PLEASE don't take this wrong but it's a real common mistake that they are not being mounted right.i know what your thinking how hard is it to put a hog on a tractor and go cut some grass? but!! your hog has a tail wheel right? your tractor has 2 lower lift arms right? set your hog on a 4x4 so it is level lower your tail wheel so it's on the ground. now put your tractor on but[[[[ DON'T]]] hook up the PTO with tractor running put the 3pt. control lever in the middle of the range and turn your top link so it will get longer and you will feel you 3pt. raise just a little and the stop but when you make the top link long it will raise a little more that because the control piston under the set is being pushed in and that makes you 3pt. lift until the pressure is released.with a little fine tuning and a little setting of the tail wheel up or down for the height of cut you want your hog will cut at the height you want. if you have ANY questions call me i will help you set it right 1-920-446-3296 your hog should not be hanging on the tractor when your cutting but riding on the tail wheel and the 3pt. at a set height and that is controlled by your top link. good luck and if you need help call Ok so there you have it from a guy who sells them and knows all about them, so it should work ok for you, of course there is the possibility that there is a fault on your hydraulics and there maybe a leak internally. If you cant sort this out, please email me at:-

and tell me what it is doing and what you have done, anything in fact to give me a clue as to what is happening with it and I will send you information on what to look for and how to do it.
