SECTION 2 - OPERATION

3-POINT HITCH OPERATION

NOTE: See “3-Point Hitch Controls” earlier in this section for an explanation of the function of the controls.

WARNING: DO NOT SET THE ROTARY DEPTH CONTROL KNOB TO THE FLOAT POSITION WHEN IN THE AUTOMATIC MODE UNLESS THE IMPLEMENT WEIGHT IS ON THE GROUND. IF THE KNOB IS SET IN THE FLOAT POSITION WITH THE IMPLEMENT RAISED, IT WILL DROP QUICKLY, POSSIBLY CAUSING DAMAGE.

1.Start the tractor. The hitch will be in the manual mode.

2.Raise the hitch fully, using the manual raise/lower switch.

3.Set the rotary lowering rate control knob, 1, to the fully counterclockwise position. Press and hold the manual raise/lower switch, 2, in the lower position. Slowly turn the lowering rate control knob clockwise to set the rate of lowering for the implement. Release the manual raise/lower switch. Repeat this procedure until the desired rate of lowering is reached.

4.Set the raise rate of the implement using the flow control on the 3-point hitch section of the implement valve. (See “3-Point Hitch Controls” earlier in this section.)

NOTE: The lowering and raise rate of the implement has to be set for each implement of different weight.

WARNING: ONLY ADJUST THE RAISE RATE WHEN THE 3-POINT HITCH CONTROLS ARE IN NEUTRAL AND THE TRACTOR IS SHUT OFF. ENGAGE THE ARTICULATION LOCK WHEN WORKING IN THE ARTICULATION AREA.
