REMOVAL
Removing Attachments from Implement
Hitch

Detach Blade from Implement Hitch
Rotary Broom
1. Park the tractor on a level surface and lower the
rotary broom.
2. Extend the parking stands to raise the broom to
the transport position (so that the bristles do not
contact the ground).
3. Remove the hairpin from the welded sleeve on
the RH side of the broom mounting bracket. Set
the pivot lock pin in the innermost position (it
may be necessary to lift the broom head slight-
ly), and lock in place with the hairpin.
IMPORTANT: Once the broom is fully
remounted, the pivot lock pin should be set in
its most extended position in order to allow
the broom to follow varying ground contours.
4. Carefully lower the broom so that it rests on the
parking stands.
5. Disconnect the broom driveline from the tractor
PTO shaft and place the driveline on its support
(located on the female hitch).
6. Remove the linchpin from the quick hitch latch.
Place the hitch locking lever in the UNLOCKED
position.
7. Start the tractor engine and carefully back the
tractor away from the broom.
