9n hydraulics

[Kondoge]

hey sorry for double posting, anyway Im working on fixing my 9n all around so if I have questions this is where I come to for answers. I managed to get my hydraulics to lift and go down but they are really funny though. they will lower if the lever is all the way down, if I lift it just above all the way down, they hold a tad more just under half way up the quadrant they lift all the way up without putting the lever all the way up. what did I do wrong or is it supposed to do that?

later on I'll post the story of how I've come to own my 9N and how the restorations went so far.

Loosen the four bolts that hold the control lever to the housing. It can then be moved fore or aft. Experiment with it until you get it where you like it.

Just so you know. There is no posdition control on the 9/2Ns. Only up or down.

ok thank you that is really helpful

If you hydraulics are working you need to find your sweet spot on the Quadrant to use as a position control. Move lever up until arm raise to desired hight then move lever down until arms stop. Move quadrant lock up under lever. It will take a bit of time to get it adjusted correctly

that's what I've been doing and its been working well so far
