objects.
Follow this procedure when attaching:
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 tractor up to the hitch point.
3. Start the tractor and slowly back it up to the hitch point.
4. Stop the tractor 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 between the PTO
shaft and drawbar pin hole. (Refer to Tractor Operator's Manual).
6. Use the clevis on the hitch to level the machine.
7. Use the jack to raise or lower the hitch pole to allign with the drawbar.
8. Install the drawbar pin with provisions for a mechanical retainer such as a 'Klik' pin.
Install the retainer.
9. Attach safety chain between the machine and the tractor drawbar cage.
