A rotating driveline must not exceed an
angle of 25 degrees up or down, and never
engage a driveline while at an angle
exceeding 25 degrees up or down. The
driveline can break and send projectiles.

Back implement over the support
blocks and lower it onto the
blocks.
b.
Shut tractor down before
dismounting. Refer to
“Tractor
Shutdown Procedure”

Repeat steps 1-2 to verify the
implement does not interfere
with the tractor.
3.
Start tractor, raise implement fully up.
Back implement over the support blocks.
Do not lower implement onto the
support locks.
4.
Without changing the 3-point lift height,
