John Deere 5403 - Manual (Page 9)

A hinged safety shield surrounds the PTO shaft. For
easy hookups, it lifts up to allow a better view.
Optional telescoping
draft links
Implement hook-up can be
even easier with optional
telescoping draft links. These
links feature cross-drilled hitch
balls to eliminate the need for
bushings.
The perfect iMatch
Add an iMatch hitch to quickly switch implements without
adjusting hitch geometry or struggling to move heavy
implements. The iMatch hitch works with Cat. 1 or Cat. 2
implements. Try it yourself to see what a difference it makes.
Get no-hassle versatility with a
durable Cat. 2 hitch.
Powerful. Lift up to 3,590 pounds
— more than enough for most
implements.
Accurate. You can position the
center link in one of three holes to
better set implement position and
draft sensing. And lift links can be
adjusted for lateral float. Perfect to
help implements with gauge wheels
or skids to follow the ground
contour.
Versatile. You can adjust sway
chains to adapt to a wide variety of
implements. And an adjustable
depth stop provides consistency
when lowering the hitch. Each time
the position control lever is pushed
forward, it will stop where the
depth stop has been
positioned. Perfect for creating a
consistent, level ground when
preparing a seedbed.
The PTO shaft can cause serious injuries.
The 5003 Series Tractors have an
operator-presence alarm that
warns you if you leave the PTO
engaged when you get off
the tractor. Also, the tractor
will not start with the PTO engaged.
