Hitching Tractor to Planter

Crushing Hazard:

You may be severely injured or killed by being crushed

between the tractor and planter. Do not stand or place any

part of your body between planter and moving tractor. Stop

tractor engine and set park brake before attaching cables and

hoses.

High Pressure Fluid Hazard:

Escaping ﬂuid under pressure can have sufﬁcient pressure to

penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by

relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines. Use a

piece of paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to check for

leaks. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles

when working with hydraulic systems. If an accident occurs,

seek immediate medical attention from a physician familiar

with this type of injury.

3-Point Hitch

Refer to Figure 5

1. Connect your tractor 3-point to the planter 3-point

hitch. If using quick hitch be sure planter locks into

hitch securely.

2. Raise tractor 3-point just enough to relieve pressure

off of the parking stand.

Load Sway Hazard:

Adjust 3-point hitch arms and sway blocks to minimize any

side-to-side sway to assure proper tracking in the ﬁeld and

safe road travel.

3. Connect hydraulic hoses to tractor remotes. See

“Hydraulic Hose Hookup” on page 13

Hydraulic Tongue Hitch

Refer to Figure 6

1. Connect the hydraulic hoses for the tongue circuit.

This needs to be done before hitching in order to

raise and lower the tongue.

2. Set the tongue height to clear the draw bar, back the

tractor into alignment and pin the draw bar.
