4.7 Attaching / Unhooking
The Wood Processor should always be located on a
level, dry area that is free of debris and other foreign
objects. When attaching the machine to a tractor,
follow this procedure:
1. Clear the area of bystanders, especially small
children.
2. Make sure there is enough room and clearance to
safely back up to the machine.
3. Place the tractor arms in their sway position.
4. Back up slowly and align the lower link arms to the
mounting brackets on the machine.
5. Be sure the drawbar dimension is at the short
length for the tractor being used.
6.
Refer to the tractor manual for adjustment
procedures. Or the drawbar can be removed.
7. Stop tractor, set park brake, remove ignition
key and wait for all moving parts to stop before
dismounting.
IMPORTANT! It may be necessary to add weight
to the lower lift arms to bring them to the required
height.
4.7.1 Mounting
