Operate Mechanical Draft Control-If Equipped

Rear hitch draft lever (B) controls 3-point hitch mounted implement ground penetration response to varying soil conditions.

Mechanical Draft Control:

With lever (B) fully FORWARD = No draft sensing.

With lever (B) fully REARWARD = Reduces the amount of draft load required to override the depth setting (position preset by lever (A)).

Draft Load Sensing Operation:

Place position control lever (A) to fully REARWARD position and the draft control lever (B) in the fully forward (least draft response) position.

With tractor moving, push position control lever (A) FORWARD to set implement operating depth.

Set position control lever stop (C) so control lever can be brought back to the same position.

NOTE: Operating depth set up will prevent the 3-point hitch from lowering all the way when the tractor begins to slip.

Pull draft sensing lever (B) rearward until desired draft sensing sensitivity is obtained.

NOTE: Position control lever (A) can also be raised slightly to override the draft control setting to help get through slippery spots without getting stuck. Position control lever (A) can be moved fully rearward to raise the hitch at the end of the field.

Terrain Contour (irregular ground levels) Situations: Implement will rise and lower to follow the ground contours while maintaining a nearly constant depth.

Variable Soil (ground hardness) Situations: Implement raises slightly to get through tough spots and operator does not need to shift to lower gear.
