Caster Pivot Locks (s/n A1058W-)
(applies to drills with serial numbers A1058W-
for serial number , see page 24)
To prevent side movement of the drill when transported
by trailer, the lift-assist casters may be locked in their
full-trailing or full-reversing orientations.
Use this feature only for trailer transport. Do not use
these locks for semi-mounted 3-point towing or field
operations.
Locking Casters
1.
With drill hitched, raise both tractor 3-point lift arms
and rear ends (page 22). Install lift lock channels
.
2.
Pull or back drill onto trailer bed.
On extremely narrow trailer beds, it may be necessary
to lock the casters before moving the drill onto the
trailer. Make sure drill is precisely aligned for the final
move, as maneuverability is greatly reduced with lock
pins in place.
3.
Pull forward, or reverse, until casters are in desired
orientation, and a lock plate cutout
is aligned
under each lock tube
.
4.
At both left and right lift assist arms, remove the
retaining pins
, allowing the locking pin
to fall
into the lock plate cutout.
5.
Store the retaining pins in the lock channel storage
holes
of the lift assist riser weldment.
6.
Lower drill.
Unlocking Casters
1.
Hitch drill before unlocking.
2.
Leave the lock pins in place until the drill is removed
from the trailer, unless the trailer bed has more than
ample width to permit casters to safely make a full
turn.
3.
Retrieve retaining pins
from storage locations.
4.
Lift lock pins
out of lock plate holes.
5.
Align hole in lock pin with hole in upper lock tube
.
Secure lock pin with retaining pin
.
