They are designed to be that way and always have been as far as I know. It's made like that so you can pull the lever to you and hit the stop or push it and go by the stop if you need to lower it more temporarily. My 5 series is similar. I use mine almost every time I have something on the 3 PH. and if I'm not using draft.
Series 4 Rockshaft Control Lever
I am having problems with the Rockshaft Control Lever “missing” the metal stop that I set into position. The lever wants to run past the metal stop. Since the stop doesn't go all away across the slot, there is enough room for the lever's arm to run past it. Has anyone else had this problem and, if so, what was your solution?

One solution I had is to put the locking lever in the way of the arm but I am not sure this is what John Deere had in mind.

Another solution I had thought of is to JB-Weld another piece of metal on top of the existing metal stop so as to close the gap. Any other ideas?
