PREPARING FOR OPERATION
TRACTION CONNECTIONS
Tractor Hitch
1. The hitch of the Top Shot is designed for a standardized tractor hitch. Adjust the drawbar so
that it
is 13 to 17 inches above the ground.
2. Extend or shorten it so that the horizontal distance from the end of the tractor power takeoff shaft to
the center of the hitch pin hole is 14 inches for 540 RPM PTO and 15-3/4” for 1000 RPM PTO as
shown in drawing. An improperly located hitch point may cause damage to the universal joints of the
power takeoff.
3. Secure the drawbar so that the hitch pin hole is directly below the power drive line. Fasten the
Top Shot to the tractor drawbar with an appropriate hitch pin with safety locking device. After the
connection is made, remove the hitch jack and secure it to the “Storage Position” on the left side of
the Spreader.
If t
he Top Shot is
attached to a tractor with a clevis
hitch (hammer-strap) style drawbar, the hammer-strap
must be removed to prevent damage to the IID guard-
ing and the IID telescoping members. [SeeFigure1]
If the
Top Shot is
attached to a tractor with an offset
in the drawbar, be certain it is in the down position
to prevent damage to the IID guarding and the IID
telescoping members. [See Figure 2]
