Frame sections on an implement are supported above the ground by lift wheel assemblies having positive mechanical depth stops and series connected lift cylinders. A pressure responsive bypass valve is installed in series with an orifice between the ports of the series connected cylinders. The valve permits the corresponding cylinder to be retracted and positively held against the depth stop and allows bypass flow to the next cylinder in series for continued retraction of the next cylinder until it bottoms against the stop. The orifice protects the bypass valve poppet from damaging high flows and controls the rate of descent of the other frame sections onto the remaining stops. The system permits the cylinders to positively maintain the down-stopped positions of the sections without unwanted looseness typical with slotted or other lost motion types of connections. A restrictor valve may be added to limit the maximum pressure so that all the bypass valves cannot open at the same time.
