McCormick cx105 xtrashift LIFT ARMS trouble.

[HobbyFarmers]

The lift arms do go up and down although don't seem to lower to the maximum. I am trying to level the farm track but the leveller is 5/6 inches off the ground. Is there a simple solution that will enable the arms to lower fully?

Lengthen the drop arms.

Thank you le bon paysan. I have lengthened the drop arms but still unable to get the implement low enough.

How used to the tractor are you ? If you are not used to driving it , do you know there is panel in the back RH corner of the cab near the pto lever where there are setting for your hydraulics , the height control may be set wrong

Have the same problem with cx not lowering fully down, which can be seen with 2" left showing on assister rams. I have been told it needs calibration or maybe a new controller for the dial for up and down.

Check the pickup hitch rods are not dragging in the tubes, always a common problem.
