ADJUSTING THE MICRO SWITCH HEIGHT
The PTO micro switch, located inside the right fender
adjacent the position control lever, is initially set so
that the PTO will disengage when the 3-point hitch
lower links are raised to prescribed height.
Figure 46
If your application requires the PTO to run with the
lower links at a height above that set at the factory,
the micro switch position can be adjusted as follows:
• Loosen the screws securing the micro switch
mounting bracket.
Figure 47
• Raise the switch slightly and recheck the position
of the lower links when the PTO shuts off.
• If necessary, repeat the above step until the PTO
shut-off height of the lower links is adequate for
your application.
ADJUSTING REAR WHEEL TREAD WIDTH
When operating the tractor in the field, it is sometimes
necessary to change the rear wheel tread width to a
narrower position to avoid plant rows, or to widen the
tread to improve stability when operating on slopes.
The rear wheel tread width can be adjusted to any of
6 different positions ranging from 45.6 to 57.8 inches
by removing the lug nuts and mounting bolts; then
changing the position of the wheel disc in relationship
to the rim mounting brackets and/or the rear axle.
See Figure 48 and Figure 49.

IMPORTANT: The front wheel tread width cannot be
adjusted. Attempting to do so will cause damage to
the tractor. If removed, torque front wheel lug nuts to
57.2 - 66.5 ft. lbs.
To Adjust
WARNING: Never operate the tractor with
loose wheel assembly fasteners. Always
tighten the fasteners to the specified
torque, and frequently check that they
are tight.
IMPORTANT: When changing the tread width of the
rear wheels, you must pay attention to the direction of
the tire’s tread design and make certain to maintain
that direction. To do this, it will at times be necessary
to switch wheel assemblies from one side of the
tractor to the other.
