A - Sway block

B - Quick-lock pin


Sway blocks (A) are used to limit sideways motion of draft links during operation and transport.

Sway blocks must be fitted when working with attachments which follow exactly the line of the tractor.

NOTE: If sideways motion is excessive even with sway blocks installed, additional spacers can be used between the PTO housing and the sway-block mountings. See your John Deere dealer for suitable spacer rings.

If the attachments (plow, disk harrow etc.) require sideways motion in the operating position, remove quick-lock pins (B) and take off the sway blocks.

With sway blocks in this position, draft links will sway in operating position. However, sway is locked out in transport position.
