Is there any adjustment on the position control lever so it will stay in the position it is placed?:confused: Mine will creep downward so I have to hold the lever constantly.

Hello,

I have a B1502DT.
I do not really understand what you mean. When I set the handel of the lifting-adjustment it will stay there. Otherwise my Monroematic adjustment has a switch to raise or lower the 3ph.

If your 3ph just goes down slowly, maybe your hydraulic cylinder is broken and you need new sealings.

Or is the handel itself going done? -> Tight the "clutch" of it, so the friction is higher. There must be something like that.

Cabu is on to it. Your three point should not creep or fall with an implement attached.
Is there any kind of adjustment to hold the lever in position? I don't think it is the piston seals as if I hold the lever it will hold position. If I let the lever go it creeps down on its own. I do not see anything to adjust.:eek:

Not sure on your model, but I had the same problem on mine. The lift control lever itself would fall and the implement would follow. Mine has a set of lock nuts that put some preload or friction on the control lever shaft. I loosened the lock nut, snugged the other a couple flats, snug the lock nut, and that fixed it.

Thanks I will try that as mine does have a lock nut on it but I did not see anything like a friction disc or anything so I figured that the adjustment must be inside if there was one.:D
