    C - Front Lift Points

    D - Lifting Straps

    This procedure contains steps pertaining to the installation of optional equipment for this machine. Ignore steps that involve equipment not being installed on your machine.

    CAUTION: Crane or hoist must have a rated lifting capacity of at least 4536 kg (10,000 lbs) to install liquid system to machine. Verify any additional lifting or connecting devices, such as anchor shackles or clevises, are properly rated for the job.

    Faulty tank strap lift points or lift straps may allow liquid system to fall during installation and cause severe injury or death to you or others. Inspect tank strap lifting points and lift straps for wear before attaching and lifting.

    NOTE: In order to install liquid system on machine, the crane or hoist must be able to lift liquid system at least 76.2 cm (30 in.). Verify there is sufficient clearance above liquid system.

    Use ONLY John Deere lift bar approved for this machine.

    To maintain proper control of lift bar and load balance, lifting straps or chains MUST be approximately 102 cm (40 in.) long in front and 97 cm (38 in.) long in back (Poly tank only).

    Verify lifting straps or chains are not twisted when installed.

    Attach lift bar (A) to rear support bar (B) and front lift points (C) with properly rated lifting straps or chains (D).


  3. Carefully lift and set liquid system on machine.

  4. IMPORTANT: Do not reuse hardware. Always use new hardware when installing liquid system.

    To prevent axle guide plate deformation, DO NOT TIGHTEN any hardware until all hardware and shims are installed.

    NOTE: Right side of machine shown.

    B - Middle Mounting Cap Screw (6 used)

    C - Rear Mounting Cap Screw (4 used)

    Loosely install retaining hardware (A and B) on both sides of machine.


  5. Loosely install rear mounting hardware (C) at top of rear axle only.

  6. Install provided shims, utilizing “hook” portion of shims, to fill gaps between axle guide plates and skid to minimize guide plate deformation when hardware is tightened.

  7. Once gaps have been filled with shims, install lower mounting hardware (C).

  8. Starting from rear of machine, tighten retaining hardware (C, B, and A) on both sides of machine to specification.

    Remove caps and plugs from hoses and fittings.


  10. IMPORTANT: Ensure hose labels are installed to corresponding ports on machine.

    Damage to hydraulic system can occur if hoses are not installed correctly.

    Case drain hose located near frame rail is a low pressure hose. Load sense hose located in valve block is a high pressure hose.

    Install four hydraulic hoses (A) to hydraulic ports on underside of sprayer.
