Who knows about tractors?

[stormforce]

What might the lever right at back of group (crossways) be though

when I wiggle it about (engine off, and standing on tow hitch) i can feel it connected, is it to do with opening the hitch up

sorry been some time since I sat in a tractor.

that one right at the back would be the pick up hitch lock/release lever.When you try to unlock the pick up hitch then try raising/lowering the hydrolics a bit as like just been said it may be a bit stiff

So to clarify


..Outside lever by mudguard with white chevron marking, would be draft'

...Next one in (i know) raises and lowers arms, with adjustable stop parallel to it,
next slot (by seat) empty.


moving backwards then, yellow lever PTO on/off got it,
short one above though no idea,


back lever behind control box
apparently connected to hitch but not sure how,

to hook up a trailer, wasn't it raise arms to top, then fully down to open jaw, back onto trailer raise arms again,

or am I thinking of something else?

You sure the pto linkage isnt just stiff, it should extend a fair way.

Raymond I'm a bit thick, but what do you mean extend please

thanks

The link between the tractor and the mower (with the plastic yellow cover) can extend. It should extend long enough to fit your new machine. It might just need a bit of persuasion

right caught up now,

no, the shaft is all done at 3' its quite a short one.
When I bought the topper it came with that, and I suspect along with the toplink they supplied, its designed with a compact tractor in mind as that didn't reach either (hence the chain in pictures)

I've got a bigger PTO arriving shortly, so while I'm waiting to buy a drum mower I can still use this topper, with bigger tractor.

having a bit of training at college locally on their selection of matched machines and implements, bears little resemblance to the real world

(evidently)

So the loader arrived at work this afternoon (a day early)

and thanks Steve BTW
'Geralds mate' is coming to look at fitting it this weekend

someone refresh my memory,

If the tachometer here tells me not to exceed this green band for revs,



how exactly does this graph alongside it work, and whats it saying?
