SECTION 2 - OPERATION

2-89

3-POINT HITCH STATUS LIGHT

The status light, 1, serves two purposes:

-- Steady light signifies “hitch disabled”. The “hitch

disabled” warning is also duplicated on the

instrument panel as an LCD symbol, 1, Figure

128.

-- Flashing light means that there is a malfunction

in the 3-point hitch system circuits. Should a

malfunction occur, consult your authorized

dealer.

129

The “hitch disabled” LCD symbol, 1, and warning

light signifies that the lift control lever position does

not correspond to the position of the lower links. The

lower link cannot move until the hitch is “captured”.

The “hitch Disabled” warning will display if:

-- The lift control lever was inadvertently moved

with the engine stopped.

-- The external fender switches have been used to

raise or lower the hitch.

-- The 3-point hitch arm position changed with the

engine stopped.

NOTE: To “capture the hitch” and put the lift control

lever back in phase with the lower links:

1. Cycle the fast raise/work switch, Figure 129, to

the raise then lower position.

2. Slowly move the position control lever fully

rearward then forward until the status light goes

out, and the hitch enable symbol, 3, appears.

The hitch enabled symbol, 3, is displayed to advise

the operator when the three-point linkage is in phase

with the lift control lever. When the three-point

linkage and lift control lever become out of phase with

one another, this display will disappear and the hitch

disabled symbol, 1, will display.

The digital hitch position display, 2, on the instrument

panel indicates the position of the lower links over a

scale of “0” to “99”. A display of “0” indicates that the

links are fully lowered, and a display of “99” indicates

they are fully raised.
