ford 5600 lever question

[pt756]

Hello there, I have a question, on our 5600, right above the hydraulic filter there is a small lever about 4 inches long, what is it for? also there are 2 knobs just in front of the lever, what do they do? thanks

Was reading other posts, I see same question asked, one is flow control other is for something else, what or when would you use them? same with the lever, have not touched it in 10 years, thanks

The lever is for draft or position control, if you don t plug or do heavy tillage leave the lever up in position control
Flow control speeds up or slows down the response of the lift, just leave in at the fastest setting
The other is a push/ pull selector for 3 point lift or a single remote line, these where often used in the UK for dump trailers, here your better off having a double action remote valve

Do you have a copy of a owner s manual, worth having
