Hitching Tractor to Drill
Crushing Hazard:
Do not stand or place any part of your body between drill and
moving tractor. You may be severely injured or killed by being
crushed between the tractor and drill. Stop tractor engine and
set park brake before installing the hitch pin.
Transport Hazard:
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.
Choose a drill-hitch option that is compatible with
your tractor drawbar.
The 3S-4000 has three hitch options:
Use the clevis hitch with tractors that have
single-tang draw bars. Use the single-strap hitch for
tractors with clevis draw bars. Always use a
locking-style hitch pin sized to match the holes in the
hitch and drawbar.
• a clevis hitch,
• a small-hole, single-strap hitch or
• a large-hole, single-strap hitch.
