John Deere 7000 Series Tractor Shown

A - Sway Block (2 used)

B - Support Bracket (2 used)

C - Washers

Quick-Coupler Hitch:

To minimize side sway of hitch, install sway blocks (A) in lower position.

Draft Link Hitch (Category 2 or 3N):

Set sway blocks (A) so that minimum distance between arms (center-to-center) is:

• 850 mm (33.465 in.) (spacers outside of arms)
• 950 mm (37.402 in.) (spacers inside of arms) If hitch has too much side sway with sway blocks installed, shims may be added between sway block support brackets (B) and PTO housing. Shims are available from your John Deere dealer.

NOTE: Add or remove washers (C) between the head of the pin and the sway blocks to minimize movement of sway blocks.
