Pressurized hydraulic fluid can penetrate body tissue and result
in death, serious infection, or other injuries. Fluid injected under
skin must be IMMEDIATELY removed by a surgeon familiar with this
type of injury. Make sure connections are tight and hoses and
fittings are not damaged before applying system pressure. Leaks
can be invisible. Keep away from suspected leaks. Relieve pressure
before searching for leaks or performing any system maintenance.
1. Adjust tractor drawbar 13 to 17 inches (33 to 43 cm) above
ground. Adjust drawbar so hitch pin hole is directly below center
line of PTO shaft. Make sure drawbar is in a stationary position.
2. Back tractor to planter and connect with a minimum ¾" (19 mm)
diameter hitch pin. Secure with a locking or cotter pin.
NOTE: DO NOT install safety chain using clevis
mounting hardware. Safety chain MUST be installed

and tractor connected in case of a hitch pin/drawbar failure.
