Tractor Hookup to Standard Clevis Hitch
Figure 1-7
Refer to Figure 1-7:
1. Make certain the parking jack (#3) is properly
attached to the cutter hitch and secured with
attachment pin (#8).
2. Back tractor within close proximity of cutter
clevis (#11).
3. Raise or lower the parking jack (#3) to align clevis
(#11) with the tractor drawbar. Drawbar should fit
between lower and upper plates of clevis.
4. Back tractor up to cutter hitch until holes in the
drawbar and clevis (#11) are aligned.
5. Insert 1" flat washers (#9) equally above and below
tractor drawbar until both spaces between drawbar
and clevis plates are filled.
6. Insert 1" x 5" gr5 hex bolt (#1) through top of clevis
(#11), 1" washers (#9), drawbar, remaining 1"
washers (#9) and out through bottom of clevis (#11).
Secure hex bolt with nut (#2). Tighten nut snugly to
remove all play and then back nut one-quarter turn.

that the foot is level or lower than the head,
especially when the wing is folded up. See cover
picture for correct position.
