DANGER
Tractor hook-up to equipment is dangerous and can result in
serious injury or death. Do not allow anyone to stand between
tractor and Snow Blower while backing-up to implement. Do
not operate hydraulic 3-point lift controls while someone is
directly behind tractor or near the Snow Blower.
A tractor with 3-point Category l hitch is required for
SB10 and SB15 Series. The SB25 Series will receive
Category l or ll 3-point hich.The lower 3-point arms must
be stabilized to prevent side-to-side movement. Most
tractors have sway blocks or adjustable chains for this
purpose.

are moved to the lower clevis holes as shown when
making a 3-point hooking-up. Review “Hitch Pin
Locations” on page 19 before hooking-up to tractor.
2. Slowly back tractor to the Snow Blower while using
tractor’s 3-point hydraulic control lever to align lower
3-point arm hitch holes with clevis hitch pin holes.
3. Engage tractor park brake, shut tractor engine off,
and remove key before dismounting from tractor.
4. Attach lower 3-point arms to clevises with hitch
pins (#2). Secure hitch pins with linchpins (#6).

hitch holes with hitch pin and hitch pin keeper.

NOTE: Land Pride’s Quick-Hitch can be attached to
the tractor to provide quick and easy 3-point hook-
up and detachment. See your nearest Land Pride
dealer to purchase a Quick-Hitch.
