MACHINE ATTACHMENT
Attachment of the machine should always be performed on a firm level site.
During the attachment procedure bystanders must be kept at a safe distance from the
machine at all times. Never operate the tractors linkage system or machine controls when
persons are standing on, or working between, the tractor and machine.
PTO NOTE: Due to the close coupled design of the machine it is advisable to fit the PTO shaft to the machines
gearbox stub axle prior to attaching the machine to the tractor. On initial installation the machine will need to be
attached without the PTO fitted in order to measure for the required shaft length – In some cases the machine
will then need to be removed from the tractor and subsequently refitted with the PTO pre-attached.
Attach stabilizer to machine frame at points 'A'
selecting a mid-point position initially secure with
nuts and bolts provided. Fit top link at points 'B'
and secure with pins & lock pins.
Fit PTO shaft to the stub axle of the machines
gearbox. NOTE: for initial installation of a new
machine or attachment to a different tractor refer
to PTO note at top of page.
