SECTION 2 - OPERATION
2-113
It is recommended that the drawbar be pinned in
position at all times. On occasion, it may be
necessary to allow the drawbar to swing freely for
implements that place side loads on the rear of
the tractor. The drawbar can be used in a
swinging application but may require
replacement of the drawbar wear block after
extended use.
Clevis-type implement hitches should be
connected only to the lower plate of the drawbar.
Other hitches should be connected between the
plates as shown on the decal on top of the
drawbar wear block.
DRAWBAR WITH MANUAL HITCH PIN
All Models are manufactured with a 50.8 mm (2″)
drawbar pin, 1.
The tractor can have a kit installed to convert it to
the 38.1 mm (1-1/2″) drawbar pin.
The drawbar pin, regardless of size, is retained in
place using a latch, 2, that locks the pin in place.
The 38.1 mm (1-1/2″) pin also has a click pin
installed at the bottom of the pin.

To remove the drawbar pin from the drawbar, lift
the front side of the latch, 1, and pull the pin from
the drawbar. Reinstall the pin and pivot the latch
forward to lock the pin in place.
CAUTION: NEVER ATTACH AN IMPLEMENT
TO THE DRAWBAR IF THE DRAWBAR PIN
LATCH IS DAMAGED OR MISSING. REPAIR
OR REPLACE THE LATCH.
CAUTION: DO NOT ALLOW MATERIAL
BUILDUP IN THE DRAWBAR PIN AREA SO
THAT THE MATERIAL CAN INTERFERE WITH
PROPER DRAWBAR PIN LATCH
OPERATION.
