Coupling the machine
32
Coupling the top link
When coupling the top link, ensure that the hitch pin is correctly fitted
(see illustration opposite).
Please note the following (otherwise, the machine may be
damaged):
With the optional contact roller, insert the hitch pin for the top
link into the elongated hole and secure using a safety splint.
Without the contact roller, insert the hitch pin for the top link into
the hole and secure using a safety splint.
Adjust the tractor's top link to the required length and connect to
the top link hitch pin.
Secure the top link hitch pin using a safety splint.
Adjust the lower link so that a uniform ground clearance is
maintained.
Please ensure that, where an optional contact roller is used, the hitch
pin for the upper link attachment is in the middle of the elongated hole
when the machine is lowered. Otherwise, the machine may not be
able to handle the unevenness of the ground.
