32. Swinging Drawbar Clevis Positions
Fasten
the
drawbar in position using the swing
limiter
pins when pulling equipment which re-
quires
accurate positioning
and
when transporting
equipment
Allow the drawbar
to
swing
when
pulling ground
engaging equipment which does not require accu-
rate positioning. This
will
make
steering
and
turn-
ing
easier.
A WARNING:
Always
secure
the
drawbar
4lla to prevent
swinging
when
transporting
equipment
or
when
operating
any
but
ground
en-
gaging
equipment.
The
drawbar is adjustable for height and projec-
tion relative
to
the
end of the P.T.0. shaft.
To vary
the height
of
the drawbar/implement hitch
point, invert the drawbar and/or reposition the
clevis strap
as
shown
in
Figure
32.
The
front
locating
pin
may
be
inserted in either
of
two holes
in
the drawbar to
vary
the
P.T
.0.
shaft to
hitch
point
distance.
This distance is dependent upon the type of trans-
mission
installed
in
your
tractor.
