i bought this 190xt back in january and i am trying to get ready for plowday. i put one of my semi-mounted plow on and i made a couple passes and all was fine. but then the 3 point started to raise the plow out of the ground. the 3 point will raise up but it will not lower back down unless i shut the tractor off.
Inam thinking the problem is in the traction buster but not sure what to look at?
Any ideas are appreciated.

Linkage for the traction booster may be stiff and needs to be freed up. It is connected to the rod that goes to the base pivot of the right draft arm (follow the rod up to the pivot above and check that it all moves freely). Also make sure the handle for the traction booster on the rear of the console is pushed down as far as it will go, then after you see that it isn't raising the draft arms you can adjust as needed.

linkages are free, should the traction buster valve be easy to slide freely? im thinking its stuck.
thanks

the issue ended up being the traction booster valve was sticking. i got that freed up and its working properly now.
thanks
