CONNECTING IMPLEMENT TO DRAWBAR
The correct connection of the implement to the drawbar will prevent
stress on both the tractor and the implement.
To assure proper tractor operation and optimum implement performance,
the implement must be connected to the drawbar correctly.
IMPORTANT:
The maximum fixed drawbar vertical load is 300 lbs (136
kg).

1. Connect pull-behind implements to the drawbar only.
2. Use a hardened steel hitch
pin to connect the imple-
ment to the drawbar. Make
sure the pin is held securely
in place with a lock pin.
3. When working with the
drawbar, raise the lower
links as high as possible to
prevent interference be-
tween the lower links and
the implement.
4. The drawbar provides the
standard hitch distance from
the end of the PTO shaft to
the centerline of the rear
hole in the drawbar. This is
necessary for safe PTO
operation of trailing type
equipment.
