3.3 Tractor 3-Point Hitch
For the Pulverizer, the tractor 3-point hitch must be
rated to lift at least the approximate weight for each
model (See page 4-3 for weights).
The Pulverizer can attach to tractors with a CAT I
hitch. Refer to the tractor operator’s manual for the
category of the tractor used. If the hitch does not
conform to the ASABE CAT I dimensions, the
implements may not fit or raise properly. Consult an
authorized dealer for possible modification
procedures to mount nonconforming hitches.
Use the correct hitch pins for the hitch category
being used. For a Cat 1 hitch, 7/8” lower hitch pins
are used, and 3/4” top hitch pins are used.
CAT I Implement / Hitch Specification
Width from outside to outside A-frame........ 26-7/8”
Quick Hitch width inside lug to lug ............. 27-1/8”
Height from bottom hitch pin to top pin ..............18”
Lower pin diameter ...........................................7/8”
Upper pin diameter ..........................................3/4”
Linch pin diameter ........................................15/32”
3.4 Front End Weight
A minimum of 20% total tractor weight must be maintained on the tractor front end at all times. Front end
weight is critical to maintain steering control and to prevent the tractor from rearing up while driving. If the
front end is too light, add weight until a minimum of 20% total weight is reached on the front tires. Front
weights and weight carriers can be purchased through an authorized tractor dealership.
OPS-U- 0005
4. GETTING ON AND OFF THE TRACTOR
Before getting onto the tractor, the operator must read and completely understand the implement and tractor
operator manuals. If any part of either manual is not completely understood, consult an authorized dealer for
a complete explanation.
OPS-U- 0007
Do not mount or dismount the Tractor while the tractor is moving. Mount
the Tractor only when the Tractor and all moving parts are completely
stopped.
