Drawbar Tow Eyes

Drawbar tow eyes for universal drawbar

The drawbar tow eye must fit on the tractor towhook without any clearance. The drawbar tow eyes are available in different versions, to suit the different tractor tow hooks.

The following tow eyes are available for the universal drawbar:

  • fixed tow eye 40 mm with German TÜV approval for tractors with height adjustable tow hooks
  • fixed tow eye 50 mm for tractors with height adjustable tow hooks 1
  • fixed ring tow eye 50 mm for tractors with Hitch, Pickup Hitch or Piton-Fix 1
  • fixed ring tow eye 50 mm with German TÜV approval for tractors with Hitch, Pickup Hitch or Piton-Fix
  • K-80 ball coupling with German TÜV approval

These tow eyes have flanges and are bolted to the front side of the universal drawbar with six bolts.

An additional adapter bushing of 32/40 mm (for 40 mm tow eyes) or 38/50 mm (for 50 mm tow eyes, not for the ring tow eyes) is supplied with the machine.

Check also, whether the machine is level when at angles with the direction of driving. If this is not the case, the pressure of left and right tires may differ. This must be corrected.

It must be possible for the machine to rotate in relation to the tractor. To achieve this, either the tractor towhook or the sprayer drawbar tow eye (not both) must be able to swivel or the suitable adapter bushing must be fitted in the fixed drawbar tow eye. Swinging must be possible, but play must be avoided. Play must also be absent in the tractor towhook itself, both forward/backward and left/right, because it will otherwise lead to inaccurate control in tracking machines.

1This tow eye does not have a TÜV approval and is therefore not allowed in Germany
