Thanks [Reply]  [No Email]

Also the life eases up. Is that from the disc also? Thanks for the help. [Reply]  [No Email]

These forces are trying to push the eccentric toward the front of tractor, where as raising the touch control lever tries to push the eccentric toward the rear. Without either your hand OR the spring/cork washer assembly, the lever will naturally relax to a non-lift/lower position due to the forces described. [Reply]  [No Email]
