Coupling Implement To Tractor - New Holland T6010 Operator's Manual

NOTE: With the lower links pinned in the float
position, the left and right-hand sides of the
implement can move up and down independently to
allow for operation on uneven surfaces. In addition,
the remote control valve float function will allow the
whole implement to move up or down as it passes
over uneven ground.

Coupling Implement to Tractor

Start the engine. Move the remote valve lever or
joystick (where fitted) from neutral (N) to lower (L)
until the link arms are just clear of the ground.
Position the tractor so that the open claw ends are
beneath the implement hitch pins.
Slowly move the remote valve lever or joystick
rearward to raise the lower links until the claw
couplers engage the ball-bushings. An audible click
will be heard as the self-locking latches engage the
ball-bushings on the implement. The lift control
should be returned to the neutral position before the
lower links start to lift the implement from the ground.
IMPORTANT: Before operating the tractor, ensure
the release latches (1), are fully retracted into the link
end.
Attach the top link to the implement, adjusting to the
correct length by rotating the threaded centre section
using the handle (3) as leverage. To prevent the
centre section from rotating while in work, place the
locking latch (1) over the pin (2) or adjuster handle
(3). The top link has a similar claw end to the lower
links. Lower the top link claw onto the upper
implement ball-bush and press down until the latch
is heard to engage.
The implement supports, where fitted, may now be
removed or retracted and the implement supported
on the front linkage.
