Attaching the 3-Point Bracket to the Tractor

facing away from the back of the Tractor (Figure 2). The opposite side of
the 3-Point Bracket facing the Upper Draft Arm is open.

2. Remove the Linch Pin from the top Hitch Pin and remove the Pin from the

3-Point Bracket.

3. Position the Upper Draft Arm inside the top portion of the 3-Point Bracket

and align the Holes.

4. Insert the Top Hitch Pin into the aligned holes and secure with the Linch

Pin.

5. Remove the Hitch Pins from the two lower side mounting Pins of the 3-

Point Bracket. Slide the Lower Draft Arms onto the lower Bracket Pins and
secure with the Hitch Pins.

6. Adjust the Lower Draft Arms as needed to center the 3-Point Bracket and

then lock the Lower Draft Arms to keep them from swinging side to side.
See your Tractor Operator manual for specific instructions to set Draft Arm
position.
