GRASS KING 03/09 Operation Section 4-10

OPERATION

6.1 Connecting the Mower 3-Point Hitch to the Tractor

1. Make sure the tractor is equipped with the

correct PTO shaft. Change shafts if needed.

2. Shorten or remove the tractor drawbar to

avoid interference when raising and

lowering the mower.

3. Board the tractor and start the engine.

Position the tractor to the mower with the

3-point lift arms positioned between the

respective set of mower A-frame lift lugs.

Note: Set the 3-point lift control to “Position

Control” so that the lift arms maintain a

constant height when attaching the mower.

See the tractor Operator’s Manual for

correct settings when attaching 3-point

equipment.

4. Turn off the tractor engine and dismount.

5. One lift arm at a time, align arm end hole

between the set of lower rear hitchplates.

Insert hitch pin through the hitch plate holes

and insert retaining pin into hitch pin. Walk

around to opposite side and repeat

procedure for remaining lift arm and hitch

pin.

6. Extend or retract 3-point top link to align its

end hole with the holes of the mower’s upper

rear hitch. Insert the top link hitch pin and

insert retaining pin into hitch pin.

7. Adjust any lower link check chains, guide

blocks, or sway blocks to prevent the mower

from swaying side to side and possible

contact with tractor rear tires.

Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in park, and set the

parking brake before you or anyone else attempts to connect or disconnect the Implement

and Tractor hitches.
