Refer to Figure 1-10:

!DANGER

Tractor hook-up to equipment is dangerous and can result in serious injury or death. Do not allow anyone to stand between the cutter and tractor during hook-up operations. Do not operate the hydraulic 3-point lift controls while someone is directly behind the tractor or near the cutter.

You will need to purchase two adapter bushings if attaching this cutter to a 3-Point Category I hitch. See “Category l Adapter Bushings” on page 9 for additional information and bushing part number.

The tractor’s lower 3-Point arms must be stabilized to prevent side-to-side movement. Most tractors have sway blocks or adjustable chains for this purpose.

1.Locate on a flat and level concrete surface.

2.Slowly back tractor up to the Rotary Cutter while using the tractor’s 3-point hydraulic control to position the tractor’s lower hitch link holes (#1) in the clevis and aligned with the hitch pins (#2).

3.Engage tractor park brake, shut tractor engine off and remove key before dismounting from tractor.

4.Attach lower hitch link holes (#1) to the clevises with hitch pins (#2). Secure with linch pins (#3).

5.Connect top center link (#4) to the upper hitch (#5) with customer supplied clevis pin and linch pin. If required, start tractor and slowly raise 3-point hitch to align center link with hitch pin hole.

6.Ensure that lower hitch arms are blocked to prevent excessive side movement.

7.Return to tractor and slowly operate controls up and down to check for clearance between cutter deck and tractor tires and drawbar. Move or remove drawbar if it interferes.

8.Manually adjust a lower lift arm (#1) up or down to level the Rotary Cutter from left to right.

9.Manually adjust the center link (#4) length to level cutter from front to rear.

10.Final deck leveling adjustments will be made later.

11.The lift link rods on your tractor’s 3- point hitch should be adjusted to allow for lateral float. Please consult you tractor’s manual for adjusting instructions.
