3. Turn the adjustable link body (if provided) to

raise or lower the link arm until the aerator is

leveled side-to-side.

NOTE: Refer to the tractor operator’s manual for

additional adjustment procedures.

Adjust the 3-Point Lift Stop

Adjust and set the 3-point lift stop (Fig. 12) to provide

approximately 10cm (4”) ground clearance, when in

the raised position, to minimize PTO angle when

raising the aerator. For transporting or trailer

loading/unloading, the full lift range can be used as

long as the PTO tubes do not slide apart. Operating

the PTO in the fully raised position may damage the

PTO.
