Tractor Hook-Up
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
A 3-Point Category I hitch is required. The lower 3-Point
arms of the 3-Point hitch must be stabilized to prevent
side-to-side movement. Most tractors have sway blocks
or adjustable chains for this purpose.
Refer to Figure 1-2:
1.
Rotate hitch frame up to vertical position.
Refer to Figure 1-3:
2.
Slowly back tractor up to the harrow while using the
3-Point hydraulic control lever to align lower 3-Point
arm holes with hitch pins.
3.
Engage tractor park brake, shut tractor engine off,
and remove key before dismounting from tractor.
4.
Attach lower arms to hitch pins and secure with
linchpins.
5.
Connect top center 3-Point link to upper center hitch
point with clevis pin. Secure clevis pin with hairpin
cotter. (Clevis pin and hairpin are furnished by
customer.)
NOTE:
Land Pride’s Cat. II Quick Hitch can be
attached to the tractor to provide quick and easy
3-point hook-up and detachment. See your nearest
Land Pride dealer to purchase a Quick-Hitch.
