1. Position control
This will control the working depth of the 3-point hitch
mounted implement regardless of the amount of pull
required.

system may be
(1) Position control lever
(2) Draft control lever
2. Draft control
This will control the pull of the 3-point implement.
As the load on the 3-point hitch changes due to various
soil conditions, the draft control system automatically
responds to these changes by either raising or lowering
the implement slightly to maintain a constant pull.
Place the position control lever in the lowest position
and set the implement pull with the draft control lever.

(A) "SENSITIVE"
3. Mixed control
In draft control, when draft decreases, the implement
automatically lowers to increase draft.
However, the implement sometimes lowers too much.
To limit the degree to which the implement can be
lowered, set the position control lever at the lowest
working depth desired for the implement. Lower the
