operation and again after 10 hours of operation:
1. Check that all electrical connections are tight.
Figure 23
2. Check the fertilizer applicator hitch for damaged,
loose or missing parts
[Figure 23] . Repair as needed
before operation.

crimps.
4. Check for loose fasteners and hardware. Tighten as
required.
5. Check wheel bolts for tightness. Tighten to 420 ft.-lb.

Tractor Requirements
The 1460 fertilizer applicators will require two auxiliary
hydraulic functions, Category IV rated drawbar and a 7-
Pin electrical connection. A third auxiliary hydraulic
function is used to power the hydraulic centrifugal pump
kit (option).
• Closed center hydraulic system set at 4 to 6 GPM rate
(excess flow will cause improper function).
• System hydraulic pressure: 2,000 PSI, minimum.
• Two directional valves; one valve can be spring
centered, but the other valve needs to have detent
capability (detent maintained at system pressure).
• 7-pin, implement lights, female connector with pin #7
being 12V source and pin #1 being ground.
