Connection to Tractor, Trailing Unit
Pin the hitch jack to the stub on the cutter hitch frame and raise the hitch clevis to line up with the tractor
drawbar. A screw driver may be inserted into the hole in the side of the swivel hitch to keep the hitch clevis
level while connecting to the tractor drawbar.
NEVER STAND BETWEEN THE TRACTOR AND THE ROTARY CUTTER WHILE THE
TRACTOR IS BEING BACKED TO THE HITCH.
Connect the universal joint assembly to the tractor
PTO. Align the quick disconnect yoke splines with
the tractor PTO splines. Twist the lock collar and
slide the yoke into place. Twist the collar back to
lock on the PTO shaft.
IMPORTANT:
Pull
and
disconnect yoke several times to ensure that the
yoke is connected to the PTO shaft.
IMPORTANT: Adjust tractor drawbar length so
distance from end of PTO shaft to pin hole on
drawbar is as follows:
540 RPM PTO - 1-3/8" 6 Spline: L= 14"
Incorrect drawbar length will change angle of driveline causing possible damage to constant velocity
joint. Do not use PTO adaptors. PTO adaptors will invalidate your warranty. See your tractors operator's
manual for drawbar adjustment procedures.
BE SURE THAT THE TRACTOR PTO SPEED (540 RPM) MATCHES THE ROTARY
CUTTER GEARBOX SPEED.
