Adjusting Hitch Side Sway

A—Threaded Link

NOTE: Check implement operator’s manual for instruction

on whether to allow side sway.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT shorten chains so short that

they do not allow hitch to be raised
completely. If chain prevents hitch from
raising, hydraulic relief valve will open,
causing excessive oil heating, pump
damage or equipment damage.

NOTE: Use spring or rubber strap to keep draft links out

of rear tyres when draft links are not attached to
implement.

Implement side sway should be adjusted when the
rockshaft is raised for transport by loosening the jam nut
on the threaded link (A) and turning the center rod to
increase or decrease the length of chain. Tighten jam nut
again when adjusted.
