5.3 Connecting Mower - Lift Type (Quick Hitch)
Crushing Hazard between Quick-Hitch and Implement. Do not allow anyone to stand
between the Quick-Hitch and implement during hook-up operations. Never operate the
hydraulic 3-point lift controls while someone is directly behind the tractor.
1. Make certain the implement's upper and lower
hitch pins are secured.
2. Lower the tractor's 3-point lift until the three
Quick-Hitch hooks
implements hitch pins. Carefully back the
tractor to align the Quick-Hitch hooks under the
implement's hitch pins.
3. Slowly raise the tractor's 3-point lift until the
lower Quick-hitch hooks lock into place over the
implement's 3-point hitch pins.
IMPORTANT: Make certain the implement's top 3-
point hitch pin is captured by the Quick-Hitch top 3-
point hook. If not consult your Quick Hitch manual
for required adjustment.
IMPORTANT: The Quick Hitch will move mower
further from the tractor which will require checking
the following:
1. Driveline length
2. Tractor stability
NOTE: Offset Adapter Hitches are available to
position the mower to the left or right. Mowers with
Offset Adapter Hitches connect to the 3-point hitch
the same way as the mower A-frame. See Offset
Adapter Hitch in the Assembly Section for details to
equip the mower with this feature.
5.4 Safety Tow Chain
If the mower is towed on a public roadway, a safety chain with tensile strength equal to or greater than the
gross weight of the mower must be connected between the tractor and mower. This will help control the
implement in the event the tongue becomes disconnected from the drawbar. Make sure the chain is attached
to a secure location on the tractor and not to an intermediate support.
After connecting both ends of the safety chain, drive the tractor to the right and left to check for proper chain
length. Adjust length as necessary and allow only enough slack in the chain to make a maximum turn in both
directions. When not in use, store the safety chain to protect it from mud or standing water by wrapping the
chain around the tongue. Replace the safety chain if one or more links or end fittings are broken, stretched or
otherwise damaged or deformed. OPS-U-0039
