15. DISCONNECTING THE SNOW BLOWER FROM THE TRACTOR

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 stand or allow another person to stand between a running Tractor and the Unit when
disconnecting the Implement from the Tractor 3-point hitch. Always shut the Tractor off
completely and set the parking brake before attempting to disconnect the Implement pins
from the Tractor hitch.
Before disconnecting the implement, the PTO must be disengaged and auger rotation must be at a complete
stop. Move the implement to a level storage location and lower the implement to the ground. If the implement
is not resting securely on the ground, block the implement up securely before attempting to disconnect it from
the tractor.
Use extreme care to keep feet and hands out from under the implement and clear of any pinch points when
disconnecting the unit from the tractor.
To disconnect the implement, first extend the tractor
3-point hitch top link to remove tension on the top
link hitch pin. When the pin is loose and easy to
rotate, remove the pin from the implement. Next
remove both lower hitch pins.
After disconnecting the 3 lift points, remove the
implement driveline from the tractor PTO shaft. Lay
the driveline down carefully to avoid damaging the
driveline or its shield. Do not let the driveline fall into
mud or dirt, which can contaminate the bearing and
shorten the life of the driveline.
