What is the procedure to adjust the remote detents? I would like for them to work correctly on the planter where I don't have to hold them in position to raise the marker arms and planter.

Remove the rubber cap at the rear end cap of each remote valve and with the engine off and lever in "hold" position, reach inside with a flat blade pocket size screwdriver and tighten it down a bit. On wings (and maybe markers) that have an orifice to control their speed, you may find yourself making the lever not kick out at all.

Also check the travel on your levers. I found on my 8010 that the lever wasn't moving the spool all the way, so it would not detent no matter how tight I set the spring. I screwed the stop bolt (inside the console beside seat) in a little further to give more travel and things began to work like they should.

I took the orfices out on my markers and used the flow control to adjust the speed of the markers. Works fine.
