3-POINT HITCH CONTROLS
There are two control switches and two rotary
control knobs located on the right console of the
cab, and a flow control adjustment on the 3 -point
hitch electrohydraulic valve that controls the
3-point hitch. The function of these controls is as
follows:
Automatic Raise/Lower Switch
Switch, 1, controls the 3-point hitch when the
system is in the automatic mode. Pressing the
switch will put the system into the automatic
mode from the manual mode. When the system
is in the automatic mode, it will automatically
adjust the implement depth position as defined
by the operator using the depth control.
Pressing the top of the switch when the system is
in the automatic mode will cause the hitch to
raise to its fullest upwardposition for transporting
the i mplement or when turning at the end of a
field. Pressing the bottom of the switch when the
system is in the automatic mode will cause the
hitch to lower to a predetermined position as
defined by the operator with the depth control
knob.
When the system is in the automatic mode, and
the auto raise/lower switch is depressed for
either raise or lower, the hitch will cycle through
its full range of movement. There is no
incremental control of the hitch in the automatic
mode.
