OPERATION
Attaching Implements (4WD model)
CAUTION: Always use POSITION CONTROL
to attach/detach implements to provide pre-
cise control of hitch.
FIG. 46: Back Tractor to implement, centering Tractor
with implement hitch frame.
Raise or lower hitch using position control lever, 1, and
align left lower link end with corresponding implement
attaching pin.
Lock the brakes, shut off engine and remove key.
FIG. 47: Side ball end of left lower link, 1, over implement
pin and secure with linch pin.
Adjust height of right lower link using leveling turnbuckle,
2. Attach and secure right lower link, 3, to implement with
linch pin.
Attach top link, 4, to top of implement hitch frame using
pin supplied with Tractor. Rotate center barrel section of
top link, to lengthen or shorten it, and level implement
from front to rear.
After the implement is attached, it can be readjusted for
level operation using leveling crank and top link. Secure
all adjustments.
IMPORTANT: With some mounted implements, it will be
necessary to remove drawbar at rear of
Tractor to permit implement to be raised
and lowered without obstruction.
Certain implements require minimal side-play. Stabilizers,
5, at each lower link should be evenly adjusted to reduce
side-play to desirable level. Do not remove all side-play
as lower link damage may result.
NOTE: The amount of side-play (stabilizer looseness) is
dependent upon implement and type of operation.
Normally 2"(50mm) of total side movement is
desired, 1"(25mm) to each side of Tractor center-
line.
