DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
A crushing hazard exists while hooking-up and unhooking the
implement. Keep people and animals away while backing-up
to the implement or pulling away from the implement. Do not
operate hydraulic controls while a person or animal is directly
behind the power machine or near the implement.
Hook-up Without Floating Top Links
Refer to Figure 1-3:
1. Make certain implement’s lower hitch pins are
secured in their respective clevises.
2. Move Quick Hitch release levers from lock position to
full forward position as shown. If unit is too light, you
may need to start with release levers in locking notch
and release levers when hooked up.
3. Lower 3-point lift arms until auto-lock hooks are
below the implement’s lower hitch pins and upper
hook is below upper hitch point.
4. Carefully back tractor to align auto-lock hooks under
the implement’s lower hitch pins and upper hook
below upper hitch point.
NOTE:
Quick Hitch hook-up to tractor is required
before proceeding with implement hook-up.
5. Slowly raise 3-point lift arms until auto-lock hooks
lock onto the implement’s lower hitch pins and upper
hook captures implement’s upper hitch point.
6. If required, follow implement guidelines for driveline
hook-up and required driveline length.
Hook-up With Floating Top Links
1. Complete steps 1-6 on the left side of this page
except the tractor’s top center link must be shortened
to keep the Quick Hitch upper hook from capturing
the implement’s upper hitch point.
2. Attach floating top links to the Quick Hitch and
for detailed instructions.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure lower hitch pins are fully
seated in the auto-lock hooks with auto locks
popped out over the hitch pins and release levers
are fully forward. Also, make sure upper hitch point
is fully captured in the Quick Hitch
upper hook.
IMPORTANT:
When hooking-up a driveline, make
sure its maximum allowable length does not exceed
guidelines. For detailed instructions, refer to
“Driveline Hook-up”
in your implement Operator’s
Manual. Replace driveline if it is too short. See your
nearest Land Pride dealer for a new driveline.
