B - Connection of the Lower Line of the Center Link to the 3rd SCV Right

C - Guide Rail

D - Raise Height Limit

IMPORTANT: Caution, the center link is heavy and can damage hydraulic hoses and other components if it tilts down during installation or removal.

IMPORTANT: Check the following before putting into operation:

• When raising the implement, make sure that it does not come in contact with the tractor.

• Pay attention to the settings for center link length and maximum raising height.

The length of the center link can be easily adjusted when seated in the operator's seat using the 3rd selective control valve (SCV). In addition, the center link can be actuated from the remote control switches on the fender.

Attached to the hydraulic center link is a measuring rod that is intended to facilitate adjustment of the center link when in operation. For this purpose, the rod has marks on it to assist in positioning. The rod is not suitable for use as a handhold when in transport or during installation and removal.

Route the hydraulic hoses so that the loops face away from coupling area of the center link. Connect supply line (A) with the left port on selective control valve 3 and supply line (B) with the right port on selective control valve 3.

IMPORTANT: Take extreme care when setting the MAX lift limit and make sure there is adequate clearance at all tractor components. Remember that retracting the hydraulic center link brings the implement closer to the tractor.

Use the depth control to raise the implement fully. Carefully move the raise height limit mark (D) towards MAX until the implement reaches its highest possible position.

If severe wear occurs at guide rails (C) on the PTO housing, the rails must be replaced with new ones in order to prevent the center link from coming into contact with the hydraulic block.

IMPORTANT: Retract hydraulic center link when not in use.

When attaching the center link to or removing it from the tractor, remember that the center link is very heavy.
