Hitching
Caution
A safety chain will help control towed
machines should it accidentally separate
from the drawbar while transporting. A
runaway machine could cause severe injury
or death. Use a safety chain with a strength
rating equal to or greater than the gross
weight of the towed machines.
Attach safety chain to the tractor drawbar
support or other specified anchor location
with the appropriate parts.
Hitching to Tractor
• Ensure swinging drawbar is locked in the centre
position.
• Ensure hitch pin is in good condition.
• Level clevis with tractor drawbar using hitch jack.
• Back tractor into position and attach hitch clevis to
drawbar, using an adequate hitch pin.
• Lock hitch pin in place with a hairpin or other proper
locking device.
• After tractor to implement connection is made, relieve
pressure off the hitch jack.
• Place hitch jack in raised position.
• Route Safety Chain through chain support and
drawbar support.
• Lock safety hook onto chain.
Note: Provide only enough slack in chain to permit
turning.
