(1) Position Control Lever
(A) DOWN (N) NEUTRAL
(B) UP
Operating the position control lever ac-
tuates the hydraulic lift arm. This con-
trols the elevation of the 3-point hitch
mounted implement.
Place the position control lever in a suit-
able position and set the implement pull
with the draft control(if equipped).
If the 3-point hitch can not be raised
by setting the hydraulic control le-
ver to the “UP” position after long
term storage or when changing the
transmission oil, follow these air bleed-
ing procedures.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Set the hydraulic control lever to
the “DOWN” position and start
the engine.
3. Operate the engine at low idle
speed for at least 30 seconds to
bleed air from the system.
Do not operate until the engine is
warmed up. If operation is at-
tempted when the engine is still
cold, the hydraulic system may be
damaged.
If noises are heard when implement
is lifting after the hydraulic control
lever has been activated, the hy-
draulic mechanism is not adjusted
properly.
Unless corrected the unit will be
damaged.
Contact your KIOTI dealer for
adjustment.

matically responds to these changes by
either raising or lowering the implement
slightly to maintain a constant pull.
Place the position control lever in the low-
est position and set the implement pull
with the draft control lever.
