Where the touch control lever enters the top cover, the plate has 4 bolts that can be loosened and slide the plate forward and aft. This can change the sensitivity of the lever and affect the sensitivity of the hydraulics.
Personally, 73 years on my '51 8N with Sherman (I'm 83), draft control never worked as advertised. All plowing, cultivating etc. was and still is as touch control. I did rebuild the hydraulics once and used the special Jig to adjust linkage before remounting the top cover onto the tractor. No change. Your results may vary.
