6.1 Connecting the Rear Blade

1.Shorten or remove the tractor drawbar to avoid interference when raising and lowering the rear blade..

2.Board the tractor and start the engine. Position the tractor to the blade with the 3-point lift arms positioned between the respective set of blade A-frame lift lugs. Note: Set the 3-point lift control to “Position Control” so that the lift arms maintain a constant height when attaching the blade. See the tractor Operator’s Manual for correct settings when attaching 3-point equipment.

3.Turn off the tractor engine, set the parking brake, place the tractor in park, and dismount.

4.One lift arm at a time, align arm end hole between the set of holes of A-frame lift lugs. Insert hitch pin through the lug and arm holes and insert retaining pin into hitch pin. Walk around to opposite side and repeat procedure for remaining lift arm and hitch pin.

5.Extend or retract the 3-point top link to align its end hole with the holes of the blade’s top link. Insert the top link pin and retain with hairpin.

6.Adjust any lower link check chains, guide blocks, or sway blocks to prevent the blade from swaying side to side and possible contact with tractor rear tires.

Never work under the Implement, the framework, or any lifted component unless the Implement is securely supported or blocked up to prevent sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause serious injury or even death.
