Before You Start

Review these instructions, with the following objectives at
each step:

• Safety: welding is required and represents a

potential fire and personal injury hazard - plan the
location and the work to minimize risks.

• Inventory: examine any called-for items and make

sure all parts are present.

• Comprehension: make sure you understand

where each part or assembly is installed, and
what tools are required for the task.

Pre-Assembly Preparation

Work Location

1.

Move the drill to a location with:

• a non-flammable surface beneath,

• adequate illumination,

• protection from weather (for painting), and;

• access to power for any power tools.

!

CAUTION

There will be sparks from welding. Dry grass, wood floors, or
areas with spills of flammable fluids are not suitable locations
for the work.

Prepare Drill

2.

Raise the drill and install transport locks. The work
may be performed with the drill lowered, but access
to the coulter zerks is easier when raised.

3.

Block the tires and install the parking jack.

4.

Disconnect all hydraulic and electrical connections at
the hitch. Secure hoses and cables to prevent
ground contact.

5.

Unhitch the tractor and move it away from any poten-
tial contact with the drill frame (to prevent possible
system damage if electric welding is used).
