WARNING: Tow hook with automatic Pick Up
Hitch (PUH) - PUH hitching and unhitching
must necessarily be performed with the hitch
in position control to ensure the correct op-
eration of the coupling/uncoupling system.
STEP 4
Lower the automatic hitch.
STEP 5
The hook must be aligned under the implement towing
eye.
STEP 6
Raise the auto hitch until the hook is engaged in the im-
plement towing eye.
STEP 7
Raise the auto hitch to maximum height.
IMPORTANT: The gap between the tip of the hook and
the keeper plate must be less than about 8 mm. A larger
gap indicates the hook is not fully retracted.
STEP 8
Lower the hitch unto the locking device.
Engage the parking brake and check that the hook is
correctly locked. Before riding on roads, make sure that
the trailer and electric braking equipment is correctly con-
nected and operating.
IMPORTANT: The hitch must always be supported on
the locking latches.
If the locking latches do not lock, adjust the lift rods. If after
adjustment the locking latches still do not lock, see your
Argo Tractors Dealer.
IMPORTANT: To prevent accidents, make sure the hook
is fully retracted and the frame is correctly latched.
NOTE: After automatically hitching an implement, before
moving make sure again that the hooks are correctly tight-
ened, to avoid a sudden unhitching of the trailer during
travel on road.
