Hydraulic lever Play
 
Quick question on this lever...how much play is supposed to be in it? Mine moves quite a lot in either direction before engaging the valve to raise or lower implements and is there an adjustment for this???

Thanks Guys!!!

Yes I assumed this much, but is there supposed to be any slop in the lever or not? if so how much and is there something that needs adjusted? I don't know that is why I asked!!! I have to tear the gas tank off to fix another issue and was thinking of killing two birds with one stone whilst in there!!!

Nope, no play. Take the tank off and look at it. Should be self explanatory when you look at it. Very simple set up.

Also consider the friction disk down inside the dash tower. If it has loosened up enough, this will add to the floppy feeling given off by out-of-adjustment linkages.

Jon on a side note the guy is rebuilding my lift cylinder for 100 bucks. He said since this if for an old Cub Cadet kudos for restoring a good thing! I thought that was cool! I wish EVERYONE had that good nature about them!!!
