Tractor Requirements

To operate your Great Plains Sprayer, a tractor using a
12 volt electrical system must be used.

The tractor will need two hydraulic outlets (one pair) if
the sprayer is equipped with a hydraulic pump.

Before You Start

Read and understand the owners manual for your
sprayer. A basic understanding of how the sprayer
works will aid in the assembly, setup and operation of
your sprayer.

Before attempting to assemble the sprayer, use the fol-
lowing as a checklist. Having all the needed parts and
equipment readily at hand will speed up your assembly
task and will make the job as safe as possible.

1.

Check for all sprayer components and hardware.

2.

If a bolt, pin or other component has been removed,

or if you are unsure about where it is used, refer to the
parts manual to identify it.

Case/IH 7110 - 7150 Tractor Mount
Assembly Instructions

Refer to Figure 2 on page 12

To assemble the side-mount tanks, you will need to re-
move the steps, the front fenders (if equipped) and
possibly other components to fit the tanks onto the
tractor.

1.

Assemble the right (1) and left (2) side plates onto
the front of the tractor frame using the twelve 5/8" x
5" long bolts, flat washers and flange nuts.

2.

Remove the two front bolts from the tractor drawbar
support (3).

3.

Assemble the rear bracket support (4) with the two
longer M16.2.0x75 metric bolts (5) and 5/8" flat
washers included.

4.

Bolt together the right (1) and left (2) side plates to
the rear bracket support (4) with the six 5/8" x 2" long
bolts, flat washers and flange nuts.

5.

Assemble the two tank rails (6) onto the right (1) and
left (2) side plates with the backup plates (7), 5/8" x
6" long bolts, flat washers, and flange nuts. There
are three locations to bolt these rails. Make sure that

when you fasten the rails on that you bolt them in the
same perspective hole locations or else the tanks
won’t fit on the rails.

6.

Position the notched tank on the left rails and the full
tank on the right rails with the tank caps toward the
outside.

!

WARNING

Lifting Hazard
-Use a crane or hoist to lift and position the tanks.
-The tanks can fall causing potential injury if not handled cor-
rectly.

Move the tanks so that there is sufficient clearance be-
tween the tanks and the tractor.

Refer to Figure 1

7.

Assemble the angles (8) onto the outer holes in the
tank saddles using the 3/4" x 1 3/4" long bolts, and
flange nuts. There are four angles on each saddle
that support the four corners of the saddle.

8.

Hook the four angle brackets (9) onto the rails for
each tank and bolt them to the angles (8) using the
1/2" x 1 3/4" long bolts, and flange nuts. Release the
overhead support of the tanks after they are secure-
ly fastened.

9.

Check and make sure all nuts are torqued to the cor-
rect specs listed in the “Torque Values Table” on
page 58.

10. Proceed with the “Plumbing & Controls Instruc-

tions” on page 15.
