3 point hitch travel on bx2370

[BX'r]

How is the up travel adjusted on the hydraulic 3 point hitch?
I'd like the up travel to stop a little lower.

Look at the three point lever, then concentrate on the slot in which it travels. There may be a stop you can relocate located at the end of the slot. Loosen it, put it where you want it, retighten.

It's quarter inching, not position control. The way you stop it going up any further is that you stop pushing the lever into the up position. It requires feedback between your eyeballs and your hand on the lever.

It's a pretty basic 3ph.

Ok, thanks for the replies.

There may be a feedback rod between the short upper arm and the valve. It is generally used to limit the amount of up direction travel to stop the squealing of the bypass valve. I think it would be able to reduce the amount of up travel to some degree.

That's what I thought Russell, just checking on here to see if anyone had made that adjustment.
Thanks for the response.

The 3-point control on a BX70 series is nothing more than a handle connected to a control valve. It is detented to the center so you pull back and hold it until the arms are where you want them, then you let go of the lever and it returns to neutral. There is no height adjustment whatsoever.
