sure all tires are properly inflated or track tension is properly adjusted before each use. Check drive V-belts for proper
tension and alignment. Torque all wheel lug nuts to specified torque.

system is required on all sizes to operate safety/warning lights, auger-mounted work light, optional electronic scale
system, or electronic roll tarp.

TRACTOR PREPARATION AND HOOKUP

1. Slide tractor drawbar in as far as possible and still allow PTO shaft to have sufficient clearance to prevent damage

to driveline components when making sharp turns and operating over uneven ground.

NOTICE

Clevis hitch (hammer strap style) drawbars may need to be
removed to prevent damage to PTO assembly.

NOTICE

Adjust tractor drawbar to prevent severe bends in PTO U-joint

angles and to allow sufficient clearance between tractor drawbar/

hitch pin and PTO shaft.

2. Position PTO as far right of hitch as possible until parking jack is raised.

Avoid clevis hitch interference
