The teledepth is for positioning the hitch only and the draft control portion of the hitch is controlled with the large handle lever on left side. Higher you pull lever up, more sensitive hitch is. You must have the lower float lockout pin removed to utilize draft control. My suggestion "forget about it" unless you are plowing contoured up and down land. Then it may keep a more even depth control of the plow than you can manually. Have to remember, all draft controls attempt to maintain a steady draft on tractor so if front of tractor goes down, mounted plow goes up, with draft control it will automatically sink that plow in to keep even pull and vis versa when front goes up. On varying easy and hard pulling land it will vary the depth of the plow to maintain the even draft. In our level land around here it was just basically locked out, but I have seen it work well on hilly land with the newer draft controls systems but not on that old mechanical type you have on that tractor.
