Hitching Tractor to Drill

Crushing Hazard:
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 tractor parking brake before attaching cables
and hoses.

1.

Move the tractor to near hitching position.

2.

Put the tractor in Park.
Set the tractor’s parking brake.
Shut down the tractor.

Refer to Figure 5 (which depicts the parking jack removed,
but not yet stored)
3.

Adjust the NTA907 or NTA3007 hitch to match your
tractor draw bar height, using crank of tongue jack on
side of tongue.

Note: The precise height is not critical, as the NTA907 or

NTA3007 levelling is set at the mainframe and is
independent of tongue level.

Hitch Failure Risk:
The hitch may be mounted inverted if necessary, but always
have two (2) bolts in two holes of both tongue and hitch. A
hitch failure could result in a serious accident and is likely to
result in implement and/or tractor damage.

4.

Securely attach the safety chain to an anchor on a
tractor capable of pulling the NTA907 or NTA3007.

Refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6

orientation, foot to rear. Using the lower stob, or any other
orientation, will result in jack and tongue damage.
