6. Raise or lower park jack (#3) to align hitch (#10) with

bolt hole in swivel clevis (#9).

Restart tractor and back up to cutter hitch until hitch

bushing (#10) aligns with holes in swivel clevis (#9).

8. Shut tractor down before dismounting according to

“Tractor Shutdown Procedure”

on page 38.

9. Insert 1" x 6 1/2" GR5 hex bolt (#2) through swivel

clevis (#9) and hitch bushing (#10). Secure bolt with

locknut (#1). Tighten locknut snug to remove all play.

Do not torque 1" locknut.

10. Lower park jack (#3) until hitch weight is supported

by the drawbar.

11. Remove detent pin (#8) and relocate park jack (#3)

from the hitch mount to the storage mount on the left

side of the cutter. Secure jack with its detent pin.

Make sure the jack base is level with, or lower than

the jack crank head. See cover picture for the correct

mounting positioning.

12. Attach hitch safety chain (#4) to the tractor. Adjust

chain length to remove all slack except what is

necessary to permit turning. Lock chain hook

securely to the safety chain.

13. Continue with

“Hydraulic Hook-up”

below.

Hydraulic Hook-up

The required number of duplex outlets on the tractor is

dependent upon how the cutter is set-up. The standard

cutter is equipped with two hydraulic cylinders with one in

the center for lifting the cutter and one for folding the

wing. The center lift cylinder is set up for single-action

(one way) operation. The wing can be set up with single-

action (one-way) or dual-action (two-way) operation.
Each duplex outlet on your tractor can perform just one

operation. One outlet is needed for lifting the cutter and

one for folding the wing. It is highly recommended to

connect the wing fold hose to a duplex outlet with float

capabilities and use the float when in field operation.

Refer to Figure 1-15:

•

The black handled hose is connected to the lift cylinder.

•

The red handled hose is connected to the right wing

folding cylinder on models RC5710 and RCM5710.

•

The yellow handled hose is connected to the left wing

folding cylinder on models RCL5710 & RCML5710.

•

When setup for dual-action, the handles have

directional arrows to identify which hose extends the

cylinder and which hose retracts the cylinder.

IMPORTANT:

Before moving the cutter, relocate the

park jack to its storage mount on the cutter. Make

sure the jack is stored with its base level or lower

than the head to prevent water and freeze damage.

Figure 1-14

WARNING

To prevent serious injury or death:
Hydraulic fluid under high pressure can penetrate the skin

and/or eyes causing a serious injury. Wear protective gloves

and safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic

systems. Use a piece of cardboard or wood rather than hands

when searching for leaks. A doctor familiar with this type of

injury must treat the injury within a few hours or gangrene

may result. DO NOT DELAY.

Refer to Figure 1-14:

1. Route hydraulic hoses (#1) through hose support

loop (#2) and attach couplers to the tractor remote

outlets. If tractor has a float option on one of the

outlets, connect wing lift hose to that outlet and set

tractor control lever for that outlet in float position

before cutting.

2. Apply spiraled hose wrap (#3) to hydraulic hoses (#1)

as needed to keep hoses from becoming pinch while

raising and lowering the decks, folding and unfolding

the wing, and while making turns with the tractor.
