3-Point Tractor Hook-Up

Refer to Figure 1-9:

1.Locate the cutter on a flat level surface.

2.Determine the hitch category of the tractor that will be used:

a.A Category II tractor will have a lower hitch link hole diameter of 1 1/8”.

b.A Category III tractor will have a lower hitch link hole diameter of 1 7/16”.

3.Remove hitch pins (#1) from deck weldment. Position tractor lower lift arms (#2) and re-insert hitch pins (#1) and secure with lynch pin (#3).

4.Connect the top link (#4) to the upper pivot hitch using 1” pin supplied for Category II. A 1 1/4” spacer (not supplied) will be required for Category III.

5.Attach slide collar (#5) to tractor PTO. Twist the quick disconnect on the yoke and push it forward to engage the groove on the splined output shaft.

6.Start the tractor and slowly engage the tractors hy- draulic 3-point to lift the cutter. Check for sufficient drawbar clearance. Move the drawbar ahead, aside or remove if required. Watch the telescoping movement of the driveline to ensure that it does not bottom out while lifting the 3-point. If the driveline does bottom out, it will require shortening:

a.Pull driveline apart, and install each half to the designated position.

b.With the implement in the shortest working condi- tion to the tractor, hold the half shafts next to each other and mark them.

c.Shorten the inner and outer profiles by the same length as the guard tubes.

d.Round off all sharp edges and remove burrs. Grease the sliding profiles before re-assembly.
