OPERATION
ATTACHING WINDROWER TO TRACTOR
CAUTION: Shut off tractor, engage
parking brake and remove key before
working around hitch.
CAUTION: Never attach windrower to
tractor rear axle or three-point hitch
arms.
1. Attach windrower hitch to tractor drawbar with a
1-3/16 inch (30 mm) pin and secure with a
spring locking pin or other suitable fastener.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to
driveline guards, use a drawbar hitch
pin with a low head.
NOTE: For 36 ft. units it is especially important
to use the largest diameter hitch pin possible,
to limit possible rotation of the stabilizer chain
anchor plate.
2. Route hitch chain from windrower through
chain support (A), around drawbar support and
lock hook (B) on chain.
IMPORTANT: Adjust chain length to remove all
slack except what is needed for turns.
3. Remove weight from jack. Remove pin (C) and
rotate jack to storage position. Replace pin,
looping the retaining chain around jack handle
to prevent dragging.
4. Pull back spring loaded collar (D) on
telescoping driveline yoke and slide collar onto
tractor PTO shaft. Release collar, ensuring
yoke locks in position on shaft.
