Slider Frame with Swivelling Tow Pins
The tow hitches shown are equipped with a height
adjustable, swivelling tow pin assembly with manual
or auto operation.
With reference to Figure 176, adjust the height of the
tow pin assembly, as follows:
Grasp the handle (2) with the right hand. Press and
hold in the button (1) to release the locking mechanism.
Pull the handle (3) down to the horizontal position with
the left hand and release the push button to lock the
handle (3) in the horizontal position. Lowering the
handle will rotate the pins and disengage them from the
frame. Using both handles, lift or lower the complete
tow pin assembly. When at the required height, hold in
the push button and lift the left-hand handle up to the
vertical position, as shown in Figure 176. The pins will
rotate and re-engage the notches in the frame. Lower
the P.T.O. guard (4).

WARNING
Before attaching a trailer, ensure that the pins are
fully engaged in the notches, i.e. the handle (3)
Figure 176, is in the vertical position. The tow pin
assembly must not rest on the P.T.O. guard or on the
bolt heads at the end of the slider guides.
