Drawbar Positions for PTO Operation
When using power takeoff driven equipment (which would normally require an equal angle hitch drawbar
extension) the drawbar can be installed in two different fore/aft positions (‘A’ for 540 rpm or ‘B’ for 1000 rpm).
Positions ‘C’ and ‘D’ must not be used for power takeoff operation.
Refer to the illustration and charts below for the drawbar positions and the vertical loads permitted in those
positions. Also refer to the implement operators manual before making any adjustments.
NOTE: For non-PTO work, the drawbar can be set in any of the fore/aft positions, depending on maximum
vertical load required.
