The standard tractor has the hydraulic control
systems as below. Therefore, use the most
a p p r o p r i a t e system for the implement you are
u s i n g .
- 3-Point Hitch Control System
(1) Position Control
(2) Draft Control
(3) Mixed Control
- Remote Hydraulic Control System
I M P O RTANT :
• Do not operate until the engine is warmed up. if
operation is attempted when the engine is still
cold, the hydraulic system may be damaged.
• If noises are heard when implements is lifting
after the hydraulic control lever has been
activated, the hydraulic mechanism is not
adjusted properly. Unless corrected, the unit will
be damaged. Contact your
K I O T I Dealer for
a d j u s t m e n t .
- Position Control
This will control the working depth of 3-point
implements regardless of the amount of pull
required. Place the draft control lever in the
lowest position and set the implement working
depth with the position control lever.
(1) Position control lever
(2) Draft control lever
- Draft Control
This will control the pull of the 3-point implement.
As the load on the 3-point hitch changes due to
various soil conditions, the draft control system
automatically responds to these changes by
either raising or lowering the implement slightly
to maintain a constant pull.
Place the position control lever in the lowest
position and set the implement pull with the draft
control lever.
(1) Position control lever
(2) Draft control lever
- Mixed Control
In draft control, when draft decreases, the implement
automatically lowers to increase draft. However, the
implement sometimes lowers too much. To limit the
degree, the implement can be lowered, set the position
control lever at the lowest working depth desire for the
implement. Lower the draft control lever to the point
where the implement is at the desired depth.
This stops the implement from going too deep and
causing loss of traction and ground speed.
