    Be sure that drawbar does not interfere. If necessary, move the drawbar ahead or remove it. Check for any other potential interference.

    NOTE: A typical hitch & implement is illustrated.



  2. Back tractor up to implement (A) so hitch points (B) align. Place transmission in NEUTRAL, stop the engine and engage park brake before leaving the tractor seat.

  3. Slip draft links over implement hitch pins (B), and retain with quick-lock pins.

  4. To rotate and remove the center link from the center link support (C).

  5. Attach center link to implement top mast.

  6. Adjust center link and lift links as necessary. See Level the Hitch in this section.

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

    Using position control lever (E) to lower or raise the implement slowly and check for any point of interference.

    IMPORTANT: DO NOT shorten chains so short that it does not allow the hitch to rise fully. If chain prevents hitch from rising, this can cause the chain to break. The hydraulic valve opens and may cause excessive oil heating, or damage to pump or equipment.

    NOTE: Use spring or rubber strap to keep draft links out of rear tires when draft links are not attached to implement.

Implement side sway should be adjusted when the rockshaft is raised for transport. Remove R-Pin (F) from the threaded rod (H) prior to adjustment. Rotate the turnbuckle (G) to get the right length and then reinstall the R-pin (F) to lock the adjusted length.
