PARKING THE CULTIVATOR
1. When not in use, park the cultivator on level areas only. Install the wheel locks and wing fold
lock pins and release all hydraulic pressure before disconnecting the hydraulic lines from the
tractor. Lower the tongue jack so the hitch does not drop suddenly when the cultivator is un-
hooked from the tractor. If the unit will be parked outside for an extended period of time, wash
the cultivator to remove dirt and debris and make any needed repairs. Remove the wheel locks
and lower the cultivator down to rest on the tines. Fully retract the wheel cylinders so that the
cylinder rods will not be exposed to the elements during the winter months.
2. When parking the unit in the transport position, ensure that the unit is stable by blocking the
wheels to prevent the unit from rolling when disconnected from the tractor.
3. IMPORTANT NOTE: Depending on the type of optional levelling attachment used, the cultivator
may be back heavy and therefore the tongue will fly up when disconnected from the tractor
unless the optional rear jack is used. In order to keep the cultivator level when parked and
prevent possible injury, when removing the draw pin, be sure to lower the optional rear jack
before disconnecting from the tractor.
