Hugh MacKay said: (quoted from post at 16:06:57 03/19/08) Joseph: That kit is the key to your current problem. Once you install everything new inside adjustments have to be made to compansate for the change. Just no way to do it until it's back on tractor, and in the hands of the user.
It could be as simple as adjusting linkage going to a lever. Then there is more adjustment just under the edge of touch control unit, where linkage enters unit.
Joseph, Hugh here also saved me a lot of headache and money on a touch control unit overheating on my 140. Simple test, start the tractor cold, and lower the touch control to the full back position. Now open the fill plug on the top right side of the touch control unit. This is where the fluid level should be at the bottom of the fill plug. If you check and fill with the touch control in the full forward position, you will have the fluid about 1 inch to high, and in a sealed system, that's alot. The unit will overheat and possibly blow the safety plug out the front if it is overfilled. I know, I oil bathed the whole front end of my 140 this way. If I've got it backwards, Hugh will correct me.
But bottom line, with the unit cold, pull the fill plug and slowly raise and lower the implement. You'll notice that as you do so, the fluid level will rise and fall. You want the fluid to touch the bottom of the fill hole, when the fluid rises to it's highest level. Good luck!
