Connection to Tractor

Wind the jack to raise the hitch clevis to line up with the tractor drawbar. A screw driver may be inserted into the hole in the side of the swivel hitch to keep the hitch clevis level while connecting to the tractor drawbar. See “Connection to Tractor - Equal Angle Hitch” for instructions to attach the equal angle hitch the tractor.

WARNING! NEVER STAND BETWEEN THE TRACTOR AND THE ROTARY CUTTER WHILE THE TRACTOR IS BEING BACKED TO THE HITCH

Connect the hydraulic hoses to the remote outlets on the tractor. Adjust the hoses in the hose organizer to allow sufficient slack for turning. Ensure the hoses will not contact the driveline or can become pinched.

The wing lift cylinders should be cycled several times to remove air from the system. The S150/S100 requires single acting remote outlet for each wing and one single remote outlet for the center section.

Driveline Attachment

Pivot the divider gearbox shield back, and out of the way. Remove any tape from the gearbox shafts, and any booklets from the driveline. Slide the clamp collar end of the tractor shaft onto the gearbox shaft. Insert the tapered pin/ bolt into the yoke. Push the yoke until the groove of the shaft lines up with the hole, and the pin extends through. Tighten the locknut to squeeze the yoke onto the shaft.

Connect the universal joint assembly to the tractor PTO. Align the quick disconnect yoke splines with the tractor PTO splines. Compress the lock collar spring and slide the yoke into place. Release the spring to lock onto the PTO shaft.

IMPORTANT: Pull and push on the quick disconnect yoke several times to ensure that the yoke is connected to the PTO shaft.

IMPORTANT: Adjust tractor drawbar length so distance from end of PTO shaft to pin hole on drawbar is as follows:

	540 RPM PTO - 1-3/8" 6 Spline:	L= 14" [356 mm]
	1000 RPM PTO - 1-3/8" 21 Spline:	L = 16" [406 mm]
	1000 RPM PTO - 1-3/4" 20 Spline:	L= 20" [508 mm]
