A - Clearance

IMPORTANT: Whenever an implement, quick coupler, or attachment is connected to the hitch, check full range of operation for interference, binding, or PTO separation.

When large diameter rear tires are installed, a quick coupler or similar device is required to provide adequate implement-to-tire clearance.

  1. Adjust center link and lift links as necessary. See “Level Hitch” in this section.

  2. Adjust sway as necessary. See “Adjust Hitch Side Sway” in this section.

  3. Start engine.

  4. Slowly raise and lower implement with hitch fender switch or position control lever.

  5. Watch for interference points and adjust hitch setting as required.

  6. Check for adequate clearance (A) between outside diameter of the tire and implement with hitch in raised position.
