lots of chores require position control..
shredding, posthole drilling, towing trailers, etchowever, i use the draft control even with a blade, set so it barely drags.. and in this method, i do the final leveling without digging in..., i use the draft anytime i have eqipment in the ground and set it just short of spinning so that the system will auto adjust and still go as deep as possible.. sometimes even with a big disc i set it as when i hit the looser soils, it digs to deep and would stall or spin the wheels.. so again the draft control is set to lift just before this happens. so unless your plan to plow or rip very very shallow with a small plow and a big tractor, and go very very slow, ,the draft control is a winner.. you set it for the speed, size of load and soil conditions. oddly enough the early 9n and 2n only had draft control and no position control.. they were designed for plowing only.. the later 8n added the position control to allow the tractor to become the "universal do all" that it is today.. hope this helps.. bill
