A - Rockshaft Draft Control Knob

B - Rockshaft Position Control Lever

CAUTION: To prevent unexpected movement of rockshaft, push draft control knob (A) all the way down before attaching an implement.

Loosen draft control knob (A) and push all the way down when you do not want rockshaft to adjust automatically to draft load, such as when attaching implement to tractor. Tighten control knob.

Use position control lever (B) to control hitch movement and depth. Position control should be used for the following applications:

CONSTANT DEPTH USE OF IMPLEMENTS on level terrain and for implements that do not engage the ground, such as spreaders or sprayers. Place position control lever at depth desired.

TRANSPORT OF IMPLEMENTS and end of field turnaround. Position control lever should be moved fully rearward during transport for usage with or without load sensing.

FLOAT OPERATION for implements with skids or depth gauge wheels designed to carry full implement weight. Push position control lever all the way forward and draft control knob all the way down so implement can follow the ground contour.

NOTE: Lift links can be adjusted for implement float. (See ADJUSTING IMPLEMENT FLOAT in this section.)
