Adjust Lift Links

IMPORTANT: Avoid damage due to insufficient clearances.

When the hitch is raised, the lift link and the draft link may come into contact with the tires or other tractor components.

Check clearances and stops:

  • To widen the clearance to the tires, mount the lift links in the front bore of the draft links.
  • When draft link are raised, always lock the stabilizer bars (hydraulic or mechanical).

The raising height as well as the operating depth can be increased with the lift links.

Increase raising height ==> shorten lift link

Increase operating depth ==> extend lift link

NOTE: Short lift link means:

Short raising parth ==> greatest lifting force.

Long lift link means:

Long raising path ==> lesser lifting force..

IMPORTANT: Avoid damage due to wrong adjustment length.

When setting the lift links, faulty settings and incorrect operation may occur.

Observe the following when setting the lift link:
