∗
FRONT 3-POINT HITCH
It is designed to attaching of front-carried
agricultural machines and tools accord-
ing to ISO 8759-2.
When transporting carried tools, it
is always necessary to lock the
hitch in the lifted position hydrau-
lically by valves on the left side of
the tractor, above its front axle.
This hydraulic locking is recommended
even in case that there is not attached
any machine to the 3-point hitch.
FRONT 3-POINT HITCH CONTROL
The hitch is equipped with two single-
acting hydraulic cylinders with supply of oil
from the additional hydraulic distributor.
Lifting and lowering is executed using the
additional distributor control lever (1):

ADJUSTMENT OF SPEED OF LIFTING
OF THE FRONT 3-POINT HITCH
Before commencement of work with
tools attached to the front 3-point hitch it
is recommended to adjust the throttling
valve (3) so that the time necessary for
lowering of tools from the highest to the
lowest position is 1 to 1.5 sec. When
turning the valve body counterclockwise
(in direction of the arrow) the lowering
speed increases. When adjusting the
valve, the levers of the front hitch valves
shall be horizontal.
