Slowly raise 3-point lift arms until auto-lock hookslock onto the implement’s lower hitch pins and upperhook captures implement’s upper hitch point.6. If required, follow implement guidelines for drivelinehook-up and required driveline length.Hook-up With Floating Top Links1. Complete steps 1-6 above except shorten top centerlink to keep upper hook from capturing implement’supper hitch point.2. Attach floating top links to Quick Hitch andimplement. Refer to “Floating Top Link” on page 17for detailed instructions.IMPORTANT: Make certain lower hitch pins are fullyseated in the auto-lock hooks and captured with lockarms above. Also, make sure upper hitch point iscaptured in the Quick Hitch upper hook.IMPORTANT: When hooking-up a driveline, makesure it is not too short to comply with shaftoverlapping guidelines.
