With driveline shaft attached to the tractor and all
stroke control spacers (#4 in Figure 1-22) removed
from hydraulic cylinder (#1), slowly raise and lower
cutter to its upper and lower limits while observing
clearances between hitch and driveline. Adjust
tractor drawbar height and/or length if driveline
interferes. See Figure 1-1 on page 11 for correct
drawbar dimensions.

It may be necessary to purge lift cylinder, wing
cylinder, and hydraulic hoses of trapped air if
operation is sluggish. Cycle cylinders back and forth
several times to purge air from them. For additional
details, see “Purge Hydraulic System” below.
