1. Use the step, safety treads, and grab handles to
get on and off of the tractor.
2.
Sitting in the operator’s seat, fasten the seatbelt.
3. Drive the tractor to the front of the attachment.
Align the tractor 3-point arms with the
attachment mounting pins.
4. Stop the engine and engage the park brake.
5. Connect the tractor 3-point links to the
attachment using the pins provided.
6. Compress the quick release pin on the
attachment driveline and align the driveline
splines with the tractor PTO shaft splines. Slide
the driveline onto the PTO shaft. When the
driveline is slid on properly, the quick release pin
will lock itself into pla
ce (usually about 1.5” to 2”
onto the PTO shaft).
7. Connect the driveline safety shield chain to the
tractor. Make sure the other end of the chain is
connected to the driveline safety shield.
8. Adjust the 3-point top link for proper deck and
driveline clearance. The driveline and deck
should have approximately
1” of clearance
between them. Refer to the tractor’s operator’s
manual for top link adjustment instructions.
All appropriate hitch pins and PTO
driveline must be locked into place. Failure to
secure PTO shaft or pins can allow the
attachment to disconnect from the tractor and
cause injury or death.
The tractor must be equipped with
a working PTO shield. To avoid serious injury or
death, never adjust or move the driveline when
connected to
the tractor and the tractor’s PTO
drive is engaged.
