2. CAUTION: Prevent unexpected movement of rockshaft by placing draft sensing knob all the way down before attaching implement to hitch.

   Back tractor up to implement so hitch points align. Place gear shift lever or PowrReverser™ lever (if equipped) in NEUTRAL and set parking brake.

3. Pull hand throttle all the way down and allow engine to idle for 1—2 minutes, then turn engine off.

4. Slip draft links (B) over implement hitch pins (A) on both sides and retain with locking pins.

   NOTE: Locking pins can be stored on draft links through holes in sway chain ears when not in use.

5. Lift locking clip (F) and rotate tab (G) to rear to release center link (D) from transport hook.

6. Attach center link to implement top mast (C). Retain with pin and locking pin.

7. Adjust center link and lift links (E) as necessary. (See LEVELING THE HITCH in this section.)

8. CAUTION: To avoid bodily injury or machine damage whenever an implement, implement quick coupler, or other attachment is connected to the 3-Point Hitch, check full range of operation for interference, binding or PTO separation.
