DANGER
A Crushing Hazard exists when hooking-up equipment to a
tractor. Do not allow anyone to stand between tractor and
implement while backing-up to implement. Do not operate
hydraulic 3-Point lift controls while someone is directly
behind the tractor or near the implement.
Refer to Figure 1-8:
1. Make certain park jack (#3) is properly attached to
cutter hitch and secured with detent pin (#8). If park
jack is not vertical, refer to “Park Jack Angle
Alignment” on page 26.
2. Start tractor and raise 3-point arms fully up.
3. Carefully back tractor within close proximity of
clevis (#9).
4. Shut tractor down properly before dismounting. Refer
to “Tractor Shutdown Procedure” on page 14.
5. Verify tractor drawbar is adjusted correctly. Refer to
“Drawbar Set-up” dimensions on page 12.
6. Raise or lower park jack (#3) to align clevis (#9) with
tractor drawbar. Drawbar should fit between lower
and upper plates of clevis.
7. Restart tractor and continue to back tractor up to
cutter hitch until hitch holes in tractor drawbar and
clevis hitch (#9) are properly aligned.
8. Shut tractor down properly before dismounting.
9. Attach cutter to tractor drawbar with customer
supplied hitch pin (#1) and hairpin cotter (#2).
10. Lower park jack (#3) until hitch weight is supported
by drawbar.
11. Remove park jack (#3) from the hitch and attach it to
the weight box with detent pin (#8). Make sure jack
base is level or lower than the jack crank head. See
cover picture for correct positioning.
12. Attach hitch safety chain (#4) to the tractor. Adjust
chain length to remove all slack except what is
necessary to permit turning. Lock chain hook
securely to the safety chain.
13. Continue with “Hydraulic Plumbing” on page 18
and “Driveline Installation” on page 20.
IMPORTANT: Ball detent pin (#8) must be fully
inserted in park jack (#3) before working on or
around a cutter not hooked to a tractor drawbar.
NOTE: Hitch pin (#1) and hairpin cotter (#2) are
supplied by customer.
IMPORTANT: Protect park jack by attaching it to the
weight box before moving the cutter. Make sure jack
is stored with its base level or lower than the head to
prevent water and freeze damage.
