OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Transport Locks

1.

Transport lock pins are provided to secure the Grain
Drill in raised and folded positions. Do not rely totally
on hydraulics when working beneath raised
equipment.

WARNING

2.

To install the telescoping hitch transport lock, fully
raise the main lift and hitch. Remove the pin from the
storage position and install through the hole in the
telescoping hitch (See Figure 4-2.) Leave the weight
of the drill on the hydraulic system while transporting.
The pin will prevent any uncontrolled dropping of the
hitch.

3.

After folding the drill and raising the hitch, the
transport lock pin may be inserted in either hole of
the wing fold lock over the top of the hitch (See
Figure 4-2.)
This will insure the fold locks do not
come apart while transporting. Before unfolding the
drill remove the transport lock pin and install in the
storage position of either wing fold lock.
