I have a B6200HST. The lever to raise or lower the deck and 3-point is vague at best and requires almost zero effort to actuate. I've accidentally raised the deck by bumping it when turning a corner.

Is there a way to firm this up?

Also, should the lever self-center? When I raise/lower, I have to put the lever back to center or it leaves the hydraulic hoses under pressure at all times.

#1 Yes there is a way to tighten up the three point control.
In the picture tighten the (510) nut to put more force on the 2 tension washers (390), if it won't tighten you will need to replace some parts. ;)

#2 No there is no way to make it a center off valve.
What hoses? The three point has no hoses the control it? :confused:

Sorry, I have accessory hoses for a FEL set-up. I can watch those to see when they're under pressure.

Assuming it won't tighten, which parts need replaced?
