I’m asking this for a friend that also has a M7040 like mine.
I was at his place today and we were hooking up a harrow to his tractor. He was on the tractor and I was doing the hookup.
I noticed that the harrow wasn’t sitting level….the right side was noticeably lower than the left. When everything was connected, I told him to raise the harrow so I could put in the lower hitch sway pins. When he raised, i noticed the harrow didn’t raise level. The right side stayed low. We went to the shop and measured the lift rods and they were exactly the same length so this isn’t an adjustment issue.
it appears that the left side lifts first. Anyone noticed this on a tractor before where the lift rods are already the same length? It was getting dark so we parked and he will do the harrowing tomorrow morning. I’m wondering if hooking up with the harrows not level would cause this. I’ve never seen this before.
