10.3-POINT HITCH AND DRAWBAR

10.3-POINT HITCH AND DRAWBAR

WARNING

ALWAYS install an appropriate counterbalance to the front of the tractor, if necessary, when using a 3- point hitch-mounted implement.

During transportation, put the 3-point hitch control lever in its raised position and lock it with the position stop knob. Do not fully close the hydraulic flow control / stop knob to hold an implement in the raised position while the tractor is traveling with the implements.

Doing so could cause damage to the hydraulic lift circuit.

ALWAYS use implements designed for a 3-point hitch. NEVER use unapproved implements with the 3-point hitch. Contact your authorized Cub Cadet Yanmar dealer for assistance.

CAUTION

To prevent an accident, observe the following instructions:
