Cub Cadet 7264 manual Hazard Lights, Using The Hitch Plate, Using The Three Point Hitch

Hazard Lights

Always use the flashing amber hazard lights along with the SMV (Slow Moving Vehicle) emblem when operating the tractor on, or near, roadways. Also activate the hazard lights when necessary to warn others that the tractor is being operated in the area.

•To turn on the flashing hazard lights, depress the top end of the hazard light switch located to the left of the headlight switch.

•To turn off the hazard lights, depress the bottom of the light switch.

USING THE HITCH PLATE

Use only the hitch plate (See Figure 21), with the optional drawbar attachment, for towing pull-behind equipment (carts, trailers, etc.) or dragging loads.

Raise the lower links of the three point hitch to their highest position to prevent interference with the towed equipment.

IMPORTANT: When transporting pull-behind equipment on public roadways, always use a safety chain to supplement the connection between the tractor and towed equipment. The safety chain must have a strength rating equal to or greater than the gross weight of the equip- ment being towed.

USING THE THREE POINT HITCH

WARNING: Always disengage the PTO, stop the engine, and set the parking brake before dismounting the tractor to connect, disconnect, or adjust three point hitch mounted implements.

Use the rear three point hitch system to attach three point mounted implements, which are normally driven by the rear PTO. Using the position control feature of the tractor’s hydraulic lift system, the three point hitch system provides for variable positioning of the implement as well as allowing the implement to be fully raised for transport.

Read the ADJUSTMENTS section for instructions on adjusting the RH adjustable lift link, upper hitch link, and hitch chain. See Figure 21.
