Attaching and removing the machine at the tractor's rear three-
point system

Groundkeeper Jumbo SMARTCUT BAF0008.3 05.17
In order to guarantee that the machine is attached to and detached
from the tractor safely, it is recommended that the procedure be car-
ried out in the following sequence:
•
Attach the PTO shaft to the free shaft end on the machine. (If
freewheel PTO shafts are used, the freewheel must be attached
on the machine side).
•
Hook the tractor's lower link arms into the three point sockets.
•
Secure all pins using the appropriate securing plugs.
•
Attach the PTO shaft to the tractor's universal joint shaft.
CAUTION
Make sure that the PTO shaft is the correct length, otherwise the
tractor or the machine's angular gearbox may be damaged when
the machine is raised
•
Adjust the upper link to halfway along the slotted hole (see Fig.
5-2) To perform this adjustment, the tractor and machine must
be on a level surface. The slotted hole on the upper three-point
system allows the machine to adjust to the terrain.
Instruct those present to leave the danger area behind or under-
neath the machine, since the machine may lurch backwards if
the halves of the upper link have been screwed apart by mistake
or if they break apart.
