thanks everyone for your help... the dash decals are gone and I had no idea there was a float position available.... Although I hauled chuckwagons with 3010"s, 4010"s, and 4020"s thirty to forty years ago occasionally for neighbors, I never worked on them and never ran the hydraulics... We are still farming with the same bunch of 1950's Reds & Greens we had back then. The 4010 is now our "big new tractor" and am still waiting for owner"s manual in the mail.
I relocated the two rods to the upper holes, and hello! We have float.... Now that I know this info and got things where they are supposed to be, the mower lowers very smoothly when I pull the lever back onto float. Unless the SCV valve develops a leak or pressure problems, I won"t be tearing it apart. Things seem to be working as they should and another 20ac are down today... Thanks again.
So far I only have two beefs with the 4010. One is the shirt-catching PTO-lever location, and the other is the 540-PTO shaft is way too low... I have to turn over the tractor drawbar everytime we switch between certain pto machines.
The haybine had to have its entire input shaft lowered about 8" to be in proper alignment with the 4010 and the entire machine re-balanced for proper float due to the low drawbar hitch. This process takes hours which means haybine cannot be quickly swapped to any of our other tractors as before... And I don"t like the new-generation PTO clutch design whatsoever. The older 2-clutch "live pto" design seems much better since it doesn"t constantly ride the fingers or TO bearing.

Today's Featured Article - The Fordson F Ignition System - by Anthony West. A fellow restorer contacted me earlier this year asking for some help and advice on a model F that he was restoring. He had over a period of months spent a fair amount of his hard earned cash on replacement parts for the old "trembler" ignition. Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce
