Unless you have some special setup, the 3PH does not supply down pressure. The weight of the implement determines its working characteristics, you can set the 'position' of the implement (the lowest it will go) but it will float up to the limit of its travel if the attitude of the tractor changes. Otherwise if the front wheels went up over an obstruction the rear wheels would lose traction. Rather like when you put too much down pressure on the FEL, and the front wheels leave the ground.
There is 'load control' available for some hitches. This keeps the tractive force to the implement constant by raising the implement if it hits a 'hard spot' as when plowing. But the low position is still set with the position control. Putting extra weight on the implement in the form of sandbags or other temporary mass is common, but not recommended. Adjust the top link to get the implement working the best for your conditions, the attachment manufacturer usually matches the weight to strength pretty closely.
Hope this helps,
bliz

Amen to the snow in your area. I was caught there in the February, 1966 blizzard with 52" and 15' drifts. We get enough for me here with an annual average 107" total.
