Operating the Linkage Drawbar Tongue
Always work with three-point hitch locked laterally using stabilizer chains, stabilizer support or sway blocks as specified in your tractor Operator's Manual. If equipped with the tongue height resume chain: Raise three-point hitch until the chain can be connected to the tractor with the same length and at the same location as required for the tongue adjustment (see "Attaching Linkage Drawbar Tongue To the Tractor" in "Attaching and Detaching" Section), then slowly lower three-point hitch until chain begins to tighten. If not equipped with the tongue height resume chain: Adjust the three-point hitch position at the height required for the tongue adjustment (See "Attaching Linkage Drawbar Tongue To the Tractor" in "Attaching and Detaching" Section). Refer to your tractor Operator's Manual to maintain the three-point hitch at the position required. IMPORTANT: Do not adjust cutting height or pitch angle of cutterbar by means of the three-point hitch as this may lead to hook-up failure. IMPORTANT: Do not make turns sharper than 90° as this may lead to hook-up failure. |
CAUTION:
Always use the tractor three-point hitch in "Depth" control.
