Using Draft Control (A TYPE)
FIG. 5-43:
Type of Work - When ground-engine imple-
ments such as plows, subsoilers, cultivators, etc. are
used.
NOTE: Refer to “Rear Linkage” for lockng pin details.
CAUTION: Do not use draft control when
precise hitch positioning is required
(attaching/detaching implements for
example).
FIG. 5-44:
Lever Positions - Use position control lever,
1, to raise and lower implement and use draft control
lever, 2, to adjust implement working depth and sys-
tem sensitivity in soil.
Position control lever, 1, can also be used to prevent
excessive lowering of hitch when low draft areas
(sandy soil) are encountered.
NOTE: Adjust lever stops, 3 and 4, can be set to con-
tact position control lever in implement work
or raised position. This enables implement to
be returned to identical setting after hitch has
been raised for turning at field ends.
To Begin Work -
Align Tractor and implement in
field and move position control lever, 1, forward (to
DOWN). while driving Tractor forward, lowering imple-
ment. Then adjust draft control lever, 2, until correct
working depth is maintained.
When Turning -
Move position control lever, 1, back-
ward to raise implement and permit completion of
turn. Return implement to work position by selecting
position control lever to previous position against stop.
To Finish Work and Transport -
Pull position control
lever backward fully to up setting.
FIG. 5-45:
Lowering speed can be readjust as neces-
sary with lowering rate control knob, 5.
NOTE: Changes of soil texture or ground speed of
unit may require slight readjustment of draft
control lever to maintain consistent working
depth as these can have a direct influence
on implement draft load.
If erratic operation is encountered, turn lowering
rate control knob, 5, clockwise to slow. Lowering top
link attaching location on Tractor will also decrease
sensitivity.
