10.1 Disconnecting the Implement
Attention - Park the machine on even fairly level
ground
Preferably park the machine in transport position
with the transport lock installed.
- Block the machine with wheel chocks.
- Disconnect hydraulic hoses.
- Store hydraulic hoses in their support.
- Unhook safety chain. (If so equipped)
To prevent the implement hitch from raising rapidly,
always position rake arms up against the stops or
down with the finger wheels on the ground to
prevent the rake from becoming unbalanced and
tipping back when uncoupling.
- Remove parking stand to transport position.
- Install parking stand on tongue jack mount.
- Secure parking stand with pin and clip.
- Turn parking handle to lower the jack base to the
ground and keep turning until the tongue weight is
off of the tractor hitch (2).
- Remove hitch pin.
Machine is uncoupled.
When parking the machine for a long period, we recommend raising the rake arms until they butt against their
stop in order to depressurize the hydraulic circuit.
Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in park, and set the
parking brake before you or anyone else attempts to connect or disconnect the Implement
and Tractor hitches.
Never unhitch without using the Tongue Jack. The Tongue is very heavy. Attempting to lift
the Tongue without using the Tongue Jack could cause strains or other injury. Allowing the
tongue to fall suddenly and unexpectedly could result in crushing injury. Use the Tongue
Jack for lifting the Implement only. Overloading the Tongue Jack can cause failure with
possible serious bodily injury or even death.
