ARTICULATION LOCK

The articulation lock pin prevents the tractor

frames from articulating when placed in the lock

position. The pin has two positions in the frame:

When the pin is in the right side of the frame, 1, it

is in the operate position.

1

When the pin is in the left side of the frame, 2, it is

in the lock position.

Use the articulation lock during stationary

applications, servicing, jacking or overhaul

operations. Do not use when the tractor is

operating. To install the articulation lock, use the

following procedure:

1. Before engaging the lock, drive the tractor to a

level surface, put the steering straight,

engage the park brake, put the gearshift in

neutral, and stop the engine.

2. Remove the pin from the operate position on

the right side of the frame and put the pin

through the hole on the left side of the frame.
NOTE: It may be necessary to start the

engine and articulate the frame slightly to

be sure the articulation pin is positioned

properly and completely seated through

the frame pieces.
