Parking Stand Clearance
This applies to older 2-Point and 3-point models only.
Parking stands must clear tractor tires for normal
operations. See page 36 for stand operation.
If the parking stand leg strikes any tractor component
when swung up for stowage, relocate both parking stand
mounts .
Equipment Damage Risk:
Do not rely on stand foot retraction as an alternative to
moving the mounts. The stand feet do not retract far enough
for adequate highway and field clearance. Striking an object
with a foot could result in substantial machine or tractor
damage.
1. Elevate the center section front tool bar to lift the
stand feet off the ground.
2. Support the tool bar with other stands.
3. To reduce the weight, remove the leg.
4. Loosen or remove the U-bolts .
5. Re-position the mounts. Use the widest stance at
which both stands are equidistant from implement
center-line, and clear tractor parts.
6. Secure mounts to frame tube.
Re-install leg assembly.
7. Test swing arc of leg.
Adjust inner leg position as for normal parking (page 36).
Raise implement. Remove extra stands. Lower onto
legs.
Note: This applies only to 2-point and 3-point
implements. Pull-type implements have a single
tongue side-mount parking stand.
