Hit a stump or log bushhogging. The draft control will normally raise the bushhog when it hits something (feels resistance), I also raised the lever to elevate it slightly. Apparently the draft control raised it up into the full up position, but it will not go back down. Tried leaving it sit overnight, it did bleed down slightly, but as soon as I turned the tracctor on, it went back to the full "up" position. I have been able to make all the repairs to this tractor so far over the last 3+ years of ownership. I sure would appreciate any thoughts about what could be causing this. My initial thought is that the draft control (resistance control) has failed, but not even sure where it is located (assume in back top internal of tractor). Please let me know any suggestions for how to approach this. Also, is there a bleed valve anywhere which I can use to lower the bushhog so I can remove it (if it needs to be removed for this repair)? Your help is very much appreciated. Senna
