(ALL other Deere tractors we own (6 of them) use a "vertical lift type pawl"Ĥ. The standard duty 3 pt hitch uses a "horizontal sliding pawl" in order to retain the telescopic arms under load.
The mower is significantly UNDER the max rated weight load of the STANDARD duty hitch on the 5075mģ. The mower was properly attached to the tractor and adjusted to meet the size and dimensions of the tractor.Ģ. When the mower fell, it fell to the right side due to a lack of support, and also caused the top center link to bend at the outer threaded section.ġ. Thus causing the mower to basically fall off the tractor. When this happened, the two retention bolts, which are used to prevent the arm from coming out of the socket, immediately failed (sheared in half) and allowed the arm to come out of the socket. Upon closer inspection, it appears as though the "pawl" that is used to hold the telescoping arm in place under load had somehow worked itself loose and allowed the arm to extend. When I looked behind me, I noticed that the right side telescopic draft link had been completely pulled from its socket. As the tractor began to face up the hill, I heard a loud "BANG". Part way through my mowing, as I proceeded to make an up-hill turn on a medium grade, I lifted the mower using the hydraulic and also raised the hitch off the ground so that I could make my turn. I set the mower according to the tractor, and attached it to the tractor as explained in both machines' manuals. Recently I had a major malfunction and I would like to get other`s input on the situation. Our tractor is equipped with what Deere refers to as the "STANDARD DUTY" 3 pt hitch. Additionally we bought a Kuhn GMD600GII HD rotary mower to use with this tractor. We recently purchased a brand new Deere 5075M 4wd with Cab.
