Hitching Tractor to Implement
Crushing Hazard:
Do not stand or place any body part between Ultra Chisel and
moving tractor. You may be severely injured or killed by being
crushed between the tractor and the Ultra Chisel. Stop tractor
engine and set parking brake before attaching cables and
hoses.
To prevent soil compaction on rows, set tractor wheels
between rows. For hillsides and steep slopes, set tractor
wheels as wide as possible for maximum stability.
1.
Raise tractor three-point arms (if equipped) clear up
to clear Ultra Chisel.
2.
For TWO-WHEEL DRIVE and MFWD tractors, pin
drawbar in fixed center position for field and trans-
port. For FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE and TRAC-DRIVE
tractors, leave one hole clearance on each side of
drawbar for field position, hitch damage may occur if
pinned solid. Pin in center position for transport to
maintain maximum steering control.
3.
Hitch the tractor to the Ultra Chisel using the block or
yoke clevis determined by the tractor drawbar. Use
the correct size pin for clevis or block.
Load Sway Hazard:
Lock drawbar swing to center position to minimize any
side-to-side sway to assure proper tracking in the field, and
safe road travel. See
, for safe transporting
4.
Use jack

5.
After hitching tractor to Ultra Chisel, store jack on
storage tube
on top rear of Ultra Chisel tongue.
