SECTION 2 - OPERATION

3-POINT HITCH STATUS LIGHT
The status light, 1, serves two purposes:
-- Steady light signifies “hitch disabled”. The “hitch
disabled” warning is also duplicated on the
instrument panel as an LCD symbol, 1, Figure
128.
-- Flashing light means that there is a malfunction
in the 3-point hitch system circuits. Should a
malfunction occur, consult your authorized
dealer.

The “hitch disabled” LCD symbol, 1, and warning
light signifies that the lift control lever position does
not correspond to the position of the lower links. The
lower link cannot move until the hitch is “captured”.
The “hitch Disabled” warning will display if:
-- The lift control lever was inadvertently moved
with the engine stopped.
-- The external fender switches have been used to
raise or lower the hitch.
-- The 3-point hitch arm position changed with the
engine stopped.
NOTE: To “capture the hitch” and put the lift control
lever back in phase with the lower links:
1. Cycle the fast raise/work switch, Figure 129, to
the raise then lower position.
2. Slowly move the position control lever fully
rearward then forward until the status light goes
out, and the hitch enable symbol, 3, appears.
The hitch enabled symbol, 3, is displayed to advise
the operator when the three-point linkage is in phase
with the lift control lever. When the three-point
linkage and lift control lever become out of phase with
one another, this display will disappear and the hitch
disabled symbol, 1, will display.
The digital hitch position display, 2, on the instrument
panel indicates the position of the lower links over a
scale of “0” to “99”. A display of “0” indicates that the
links are fully lowered, and a display of “99” indicates
they are fully raised.
