ATTACHING/UNHOOKING
The machine should always be parked on a level, dry area that is free of debris and foreign objects.
Follow this procedure when
1. Clear the area of bystanders and remove foreign objects from the machine and working area.
2. Make sure there is enough room to back the towing vehicle up to the hitch point.
3. Start the towing vehicle and slowly back it up to the hitch point.
4. Stop the towing vehicle engine, place all controls in neutral, set park brake, and remove ignition
key before dismounting.
5. Adjust the length of the drawbar to give the appropriate dimension (refer to the towing vehicle
Operator's Manual).
6. Use the jack to raise or lower the hitch pole to align with the drawbar.
7. Install the drawbar pin with provisions for a mechanical retainer such as a 'Klik' pin. Install the
retainer.
8. Attach safety chain between the machine and the towing vehicle drawbar cage.
9. Connect the hydraulics:
•
Use a clean cloth or paper towel to clean the couplers on the ends of the hoses. Also clean
the area around the couplers on the towing vehicle.
•
Insert the male ends of the couplers into the remote hydraulic ports on the towing vehicle.
•
Be sure that each hydraulic circuit on the machine matches up with the correct set of ports on
the towing vehicle. Be sure to match the system with the desired control lever in the towing
vehicle.
10. Route the hoses along the hitch and secure in position to prevent entanglement with any moving
parts.
