Rebuilt the hydraulics last weekend. While apart I checked everything I could reach through the bottom or side covers and all seemed well. Lift works great but I still cannot set the quadrant for proper actuation unless the plate is all the way forward on its bolts. What would cause this. Service manul directions followed to the letter as well as archive reviews. I hate to just leave it that way and have no clue as to why it needs to be set full forward. Something else must be worn or bent but have no idea where to look next. -Lee

Both of my tractor's long cranked shaft from the quadrant lever that rubs on the Control Fork were worn. No longer round, rather "D" shaped in cross-section. Used JB Weld to build up the "D" to an "O" and filed smooth so the shaft is nice and round in cross section.

If the distance is 2-1/4 from the top of the quadrant to the rear of the lever or anywhere close that is ok. There could be wear on the linkage somewhere, possibly on the end of the Control Fork at the top may be worn or rusted through or the long cranked shaft from the quadrant lever that rubs on the Control Fork could be worn, either of these will cause the Control Quadrant to need to be pushed well forward to make up for the worn part. If, as you say, the hydraulics work ok and you can find the neutral position on the lever then don't worry about it, you can't expect it to be absolutely as new at 50+ years old.

Thanks John and Chuck for the input. Sounds like something else I need not worry about :)
