Hitching to the tractor
Approach the tractor and couple the
hoses (A) to the quick couplers. To do so,
shut down the engine, relieve the control
valve pressure by activating the lever
a couple of times and check if the quick
couplers are clean.
Check the drawbar type from your tractor. To hitch the equipment, use the tractor
drawbar.
Hitch the drawbar (B) to the tractor drawbar using the axle (C). Note that the drawbar is
centered on the tractor. To facilitate hitching, use the jack (D) adjustment.
Lock the chain (E) to the tractor and equipment to assure that they will not get loose, but
leave a small clearance so that the disk harrow can perform maneuvers.

• When setting up the equipment for the job, the tractor-equipment must
be leveled related to the soil. Besides that, the tractor must be hitched
to the equipment hitch to avoid unnecessary efforts during the set-up.
• When hitching the equipment to the tractor, use a chain to lock the
equipment drawbar to the tractor hitch bar. This measure will prevent a
possible rupture of any hydraulic hose or breaks on the hitching system,
what would make the equipment tilt up.
• The correct way to hitch the safety chain (E) may vary according to the
tractor model. However, the hitch and the hoop must pass through the
chain links as shown on the illustration from the next page. Never hitch
the hook without passing it through the chain.
