10:1 Read the safety
instructions
Before using the machine ensure anyone
operating the machine is familiar with the
contents of this manual, the pre-delivery
check has been done and all operators have
been trained in the safe use of this machine.
10:2 Connecting to the
tractor
With the tractor close enough to the machine,
connect the hydraulic hoses (ensure quick
release couplings are clean) The hoses with
the red band are the wheel lift system, the
hoses with the blue band are for the pitch
control. The hoses with the green band are for
the wing fold.
Using the pitch control raise the pull to the
tractor height, back the tractor up and fit the
drawbar pin.
Check the hoses to ensure the hoses from
the tractor to the machine can't be damaged.
If the hoses are too long they may need to be
shortened, or reversed through the stand as
shown.
Fit suitably rated safety chains (not supplied
with the machine) to the bracket under the
pull.
Specifications are subject to change without prior notification
Hoses reversed through holder, out of harms way
