Using Hydraulic Hitch Position Control

CAUTION:

CQ267070-UN-06MAR06

M47168-UN-31JAN92

A - Position control lever

B - Draft control lever

C - Position control lever in transport position

D - Position control lever in depth position

E - Position control lever in float position

Move draft control lever (B) fully forwards to turn off sensitivity control, when coupling implement to tractor.

Position control lever (A) and draft control lever (B) to control the movement and depth of hitch. The position control should be used in the following applications:

• For the TRANSPORT of implements while turning at end of row (crop ends). Move position control lever (C) fully back while transporting, with or without draft control.
• To engage the implements at a CONSTANT DEPTH on level terrain and for non soil penetrating implements, like, for example, sprayers. Adjust position control lever to obtain the desired depth (D).
• For the FLOATING operation of implements with depth gauge wheels designed to support the total implement weight. Adjust both control levers fully forwards to position (E), so that the implement can follow the land contours.

NOTE: Tensioning arms can be adjusted to provide lateral float. (See "Hitch Float", in this section.)
