I think I broke this adjuster for the 3 point hitch. Can it be repaired?

Hello everyone,
I have a L3130 which had a snowblower on the 3pt for the winter. I used this device (see attached photo) to correct the tilt. However, when I was doing that I think I put too much weight/torque on it and it stopped moving/locked up.



Any suggestions if this is something that can be repaired? If I need to get a new one do I have to get it from Kubota? Anyone know the proper name for it?

Thanks for any help -

Are you sure it's not bottomed out/at end of its stroke? If somebody put it together, somebody can take it apart.

Kubota USA sells the complete assembly but there are two versions available, part numbers below.
TD060-39500
HTD00-39500

They sell parts separately also so it is possible to repair it. Interestingly the individual parts are single numbers so no idea which assembly they fit.

The secret seems to be an expansion plug driven into the top of the gearbox. You will probably need to get a new plug if you remove it.

it is a simple geared handle and vertical threaded rod mechanism so not much to go wrong.
