[AT] anything yet?

Tyler and Ralph; 
I've been down with the flu and other things. My Dragon Naturally Speaking software doesn't respond well when your voice is different than what it is trained for and my voice has been other than natural for quite a while. 
Now back to tractors. Ralph, I have not had time to check the hydraulic systems on our 30 and 40. All of our tractors are about one hour from where I live but I will surely make a point of checking. I am not sure that either the 30 or 40 have three points but I know they have hydraulics. We will see how that all shakes out when I can get down there again. 
You all have a great day. I will keep you posted. I cannot believe we would let something as simple as changing hoses be the problem but, we are not as sharp as we once were.

On this one, down raises the implement and up lowers the implement. We do not know if this is standard for Cockshutt or not. Maybe something is just hooked up wrong.

Hi Gil 
I may be wrong but I thought the 550 might have the same style 3 point 
hitch as the older 40 and 50 tractors. If so then changing the direction 
the lever goes to lift can be as simple as changing the hydraulic hoses 
from one outlet to the other. That is how simple it is on my 40. They 
use the same hyd outlets as the remote cylinder for trailing type 
implements.
