Section 2
Setup
This section covers drill preperation and setup. You must
hook the drill hydraulics to the tractor, bleed the drill hy-
draulics and make any necessary frame adjustments.
This section also includes instructions for folding and un-
folding the drill. Read these instructions carefully before
folding or unfolding the drill.
Tractor Hookup
!
DANGER!
You may be severely injured or killed by being crushed between
the tractor and drill. Do not stand or place any part of your
body between drill and moving tractor. Stop tractor engine and
set park brake before installing the hitch pin.
!
WARNING!
This drill can have positive and negative tongue weight, which
can work the hitch pin loose during transport. To avoid serious
injury or death due to a road accident, always use a clevis hitch
or clevis drawbar with a locking-style hitch pin.
1. Use a locking-style hitch pin that is sized to match the
holes in the hitch and drawbar. Hitch drill to tractor
drawbar.
2. Securely attach safety chain to an anchor on tractor
capable of pulling drill.
3. Store jack on storage tube on top of tongue as shown
in Figure 2-1.

4. Plug drill electrical lead into tractor seven-pin connec-
tor.
Hydraulic Hose Hookup
!
WARNING!
Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing
serious injury. Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before
disconnecting hydraulic lines. Use a piece of paper or card-
board, NOT BODY PARTS, to check for suspected leaks. Wear
protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working
with hydraulic systems. If an accident occurs, see a doctor im-
mediately. Any fluid injected into the skin must be surgically re-
moved within a few hours or gangrene may result.
Great Plains hydraulic hoses are color coded to help you
hookup hoses to your tractor outlets. Hoses that go to the
same remote valve are marked with the same color.
To distinguish hoses on the same hydraulic circuit, refer to
plastic hose holders. See Figure 2-2. Hoses under extend-
ed-cylinder symbol feed cylinder base ends. Hoses under
retracted-cylinder symbol feed cylinder rod ends.

IMPORTANT: To run drill in the field on tractors with
open-center hydraulics or on tractors with fixed-dis-
placement hydraulic pumps, you must install a Great
Plains kit, part number 194-143A. You can set up drill
and bleed hydraulics with either an open- or closed-
center system.
