Adjusting the height-adjustable ball hitch (option)
Before hitching a trailer, the height of the ball hitch can be adjusted to the
height of the trailer drawbar with the height adjustable ball hitch.
Injury hazard due to falling ball hitch!
If no locating pin is pre-adjusted, the ball hitch can fall on limbs when
adjusting it.
► The locating pin A must be pre-adjusted before adjusting the ball hitch.
► Never remove the locating pin A.
Danger of accident due incorrectly locked ball hitch!
The ball hitch can come out of the lock on the adjusting plate.
► Ensure that the lock pins on the left and right are visible and engaged
flush in holes C of the adjusting plate.
1. Put the trailer drawbar in a horizontal position.
2. Insert lock pin C in the required position.
3. Pull lever A upward.
4. Slide the ball hitch upward or downward until it is at the same height as
the trailer lug (at the middle of the tow hitch).
5. Release lever A.
➥ Lock pins B must engage on either side.
In connection with a hydraulic or pneumatic trailer brake, the ball hitch has
to be set in the lowest position. If the machine is equipped with an
automatic ball hitch, the drawbar lug must rest on the base of the jaw.
The height-adjustable ball hitch can be completely removed if necessary.
To do this, remove locating pin C, unlock the ball hitch with lever A and
take it out downward.
