The majority of the screen is in
two sections; Hitch Position Control
and Draft Control.
A Hitch Position Control on the Left.
— The long vertical bar represents the
entire working range of the hitch
from 0% to 100%.
— The top thin white line is the upper
limit that has been set for the hitch
when it is commanded to raise
when the raise button is pushed on
the MFH, and is set by selecting
the hitch upper limit setting
selection.
— The blue line is the current
position of the hitch. This line
moves up and down as the hitch
moves up and down.
— The green line is the stored
value when the hitch set button
is pressed.
B Draft Control is on the right side.
— The dark brown vertical bar is the range of the draft control system.
From the minimum draft load at the top of the bar to the maximum
draft load at the bottom.
— The Blue bar is the actual draft load that is on the hitch. This bar will
go up and down as the horizontal load on the hitch changes.
— The Orange box is the Draft Sensitivity box. The height of this box
will change as the draft sensitivity is changed by selecting the Draft
Sensitivity section (see G on page 19) on the left knob and turning
the right knob (see page 19) clockwise to increase the sensitivity
or counterclockwise to decrease the sensitivity. As the sensitivity is
changed the size of the orange box will change.
— The Draft control is working within the desired parameters when the
Blue bar is working within the limits of the orange box.
Example:With a properly set draft control, the mounted plow/ripper/chisel
will maintain depth as accurate as possible to get a uniform depth of
plowing.Setting the orange bar much wider will ensure that the plow will
stay on the gauge wheelswhen the tractor hits the tougher spots in the
eld.If the orange box is too narrow, the hitch will be going up and down and
the depth of plowing will not be uniform.
