check chains too long ?

Hi again
I wonder if you could assist please

Super Dexta with kuboto 1.2 flail mower.
Works fine other than has decided to jetison the off side pin from the three point linkage, despite having new lynch pins.

Obviously I haven't noticed the lynch pin missing until too late and then the pin itself vanishes and when I try to lift it it won't.

What might cause this ? Pins are 150mm long but really need to be 95 ish. Check chains are loose - should they be tightened ?

Thanks for any help

Have you fitted a steady bar from the link arm to below the axle? That will prevent the mower swinging and give a consistent swathe.
See my post about isolation.
