Hi there group. I posted a week or so ago stating I bought a 656 for a pretty decent deal. There was only one small problem the owner told me about when I bought it. He gave me the handle and bracket for the draft control and said the end of the shaft where the lever attaches broke off. I figured no real problem, I wouldn't be counting on it much anyway.
I seem to have to trottle up to raise the hitch at a decent rate, but when lowered, the 3 point lowers so slow I find myself having to stop the tractor to wait for it to lower to where I want it. Power steering and other hydraulic functions seem to work as they should, so it seems like it would be an adjustment issue.
My question is, do I need to replace this shaft to adjust the rate of fall for the hitch, or am I missing the place I am supposed to be adjusting it? I know right where it is on my green tractors, but I'm sort of stumped on the new red one. If I need to replace the shaft, is it a big job?
