Hitch Control

LX234779-UN-25NOV15

A - Depth Control Regulator

B - Hitch Control Switch: “Raise”

C - Hitch Control Switch: “Lower”

D - Raise-Limit Control

The hitch is operated with the depth control (A) and control switches (B) and (C). The raise height is restricted with the raise-limit control (D).

To prepare the hitch for operation, start the engine and either:

• move hitch control (A) to the position that corresponds to the position of draft links,
• move control (A) to one of the end positions, or
• press control switches (B) or (C).

Pull control (A) towards “0” to raise implement
Push control (A) towards “9” to lower implement

With control switches (B) and (C), the implement can be raised or lowered independent of control (A) (e.g. to turn around at end of field).

If switch (B) is pressed, the implement is raised until its position corresponds to the position of the raise-limit control (D).

If switch (C) is pressed, the implement is lowered until its position corresponds to the position of the depth control (A).

To reach the operating depth faster in the compacted soil at the headland (quick raise/lower), press and hold switch (C). As soon as switch (C) is pressed, the set draft force is overridden. Once switch (C) is released, the implement returns to the values specified previously.

NOTE: The quick raise/lower function only works as long as the vehicle is in motion.

Hitch - Transport Lock Activated

CAUTION: Always engage the hitch lock before driving the tractor!

To activate the transport lock of the hitch, move the depth control beyond 0 to the stop (lock symbol) into transport position (A). The hitch is now locked.
