WARNING
!
To prevent serious injury or death:
Always shut tractor down using “Tractor Shutdown
Procedure” provided in this manual before allowing anyone
including the operator to hook-up and unhook implement.
1.
Ensure lower 3-Point lift arms are stabilized to
prevent excessive side movement.
2. Slowly back tractor up to rake while using tractor’s
3-Point hydraulic control lever to align lower lift arm
hitch holes with implement’s lower hitch pins.
3. Set tractor transmission in park and engage tractor
park brake, shut tractor engine off, and remove
switch key before dismounting tractor.
NOTE:
Land Pride’s Quick Hitch can be attached to
the tractor to provide quick and easy 3-point hook-
up and detachment. See your nearest Land Pride
dealer to purchase a Quick-Hitch.
4. With tractor’s lower lift arms aligned and positioned,
slide lower lift arm holes onto the hitch pins. Secure
lower 3-Point arms to hitch pins with linchpins
supplied by customer.
5. Connect top center link hitch hole to the top center
link mounting holes using customer supplied clevis
pin and linchpin.
6. Rotate park stand up and pin in transport position
with wire retaining pin. Make sure wire retainer is
caught over end of pin.
7.
Return to the tractor and slowly operate controls up
and down to ensure drawbar, tires, and other
equipment on the tractor do not contact the rake
frame and teeth. Move or remove the drawbar if it
does.
8. Manually adjust one of the two lower lift arms up or
down to level the rake from left to right.
9. Manually adjust length of top center link to level the
rake from front to rear.
Check Equipment Clearances
1.
Carefully raise and lower implement to ensure
drawbar, tires, and other equipment on the tractor do
not contact the Landscape Rake.
2. Carefully pivot rake clockwise to align end of rake
with left tractor tire. Raise and lower implement to
ensure tractor tire and tractor do not come in contact
with end of rake. Set tractor control lever stop to
restrict lifting height if rake interferes with tractor tire.
3. Carefully pivot rake counterclockwise to align end of
rake with right tractor tire. Raise and lower implement
to ensure tractor tire and tractor do not come in
contact with end of rake. If rake interferes, set tractor
control lever stop to restrict lifting height.
4. If rake is to be tilted, tilt end of rake to preferred
setting and repeat steps 2 and 3 above. agreed
