3.12.9
Limiting the lifting height
The height limit is a useful feature, for example, when there is a risk that the
implement could hit the cab or when using the power take-off (PTO) driven
implements to prevent the PTO shaft from being damaged.
IMPORTANT: The lifting height limitation must be used when using power take-
off (PTO) powered implements to prevent the PTO shaft from being damaged.

1. Lifting height selector
•
Use the lifting height selector to limit the lower links lifting height.
The lifting height can be limited to 9 different positions with the lifting height
selector. The Max position is the uppermost position to which the lower links
can be lifted.
The lifting height selector limits the lifting height when either the position
control knob or the lift/stop/lower switch is used.
3.12.10 Draft control
You can use the draft control when working with implements that operate below
the surface of the ground. Such implements are, for example, ploughs and
cultivators.
NOTE: Adjust the ploughing depth with the position control knob.
NOTE: It is recommended to keep the draft control disengaged (in position P) if it
is not needed and always when the implement is lifted by the control knob.
The draft control has eight levels which define to what extent the draft force
affects the working depth, where
•
1 = small influence
•
8 = very large influence
Position 5 is normally used for ploughing. If larger draft control is required,
position 6 can be used instead, and the ploughing depth is not significantly
affected.
When the draft control is operating, the rear linkage tries to maintain the position
set by the position control knob. If the pulling resistance increases, the rear
linkage raises the implement and some of the weight is transferred to the rear
wheels. Thus, the driving wheels maintain the maximum traction.
