Hitch Held at Selected Position


Use draft control to maintain operating depth of tillage equipment in rolling terrain. If soil density/resistance varies, higher response setting causes more depth variation. The best setting depends on the implement type and field conditions.

Higher values provide more/faster draft response. Lower values provide less/slower draft response. Setting value to “0” is position control, which means the hitch maintains the height set by the operator.

Adjusting load/depth only changes draft responsiveness. Use hitch lever to control/change operating depth.

NOTE: Low draft response settings slow the drop rate of lighter implements. To increase the speed at which implement enters the ground, hold lever in forward detent. Hitch lowers at the drop rate selected.
