attachment Weight limit
The maximum allowable attachment weight is determined
by the gross weight of the attachment verses the distance
from the end of the tractor hitch arm to the attachment’s
center of gravity (Figure 10). The further an attachment’s
center of gravity is from the tractor, the more leverage is
required to raise it.
Measure the distance from the end of the hitch arms to
the attachment’s center of gravity (Figure 10) and use
the graph in Figure 9 to determine if an attachment is too
heavy to be used with your tractor.
Always use a front weight carrier and 50 lbs. suitcase
weights when using a rear-mounted attachment. Remove
the front weights when the rear attachment is removed.

locking the Hitch
The 3-point hitch can be locked in the raised position.
When a rear attachment is locked in the raised position,
the tractor’s on-board hydraulic cylinder can be used to lift
mid mounted attachments without having to remove the
rear attachment. For example, if a tractor equipped with
a tiller is to be used for mowing, the tiller can be locked in
the raised position allowing the mower to be installed and
used.
To lock the 3-point hitch in the raised position:
1. Raise the attachment lift.
2. Remove the locking rod from its storage position (A,
Figure 11) and insert it below the hitch arms in the
locking position (B).
3. Secure with a hair pin clip.
CaUTION
avoid injury! a machine with a 3-point hitch
attachment installed may become unstable when
the attachment is raised. always drive slower
over uneven ground and when turning with the
attachment raised.
