4.16.5 - Stabilisers
Stabilisers are used to limit the lateral movement of the
lower links.
The front stabiliser support has only one possible position
(Fig. 66).
4.16.6 - Adjustment procedures
Once the suitable position has been determined according
to implements used, adjustment of stabilizers should be
carried out as follows:
• Pos. 1: Screw or unscrew centre members to obtain
desired left-hand side/right-hand side sway.
• Pos. 2: Automatic no-sway at transport position.
NOTE: The side sway is to be adjusted with drawbars in
transport position.
A. Install Cat. 2 linkage drawbars.
B. Set lift rods length as required.
C. Set lower link travel as required Fig. 67.
D. Fully screw in stabilisers.

- Set the control panel hitch "Lift/Lower" switch to
"Lift" then to "Neutral".
- Press "Lift" button until lower links reach highest
position.
- Stop the engine.
- Unscrew stabilisers (Fig. 68) until drawbars have no
lateral oscillation and are centralised.
- Screw both stabilisers in 1 turn.
Tractors without "Lift/Lower" push buttons
- Set the control panel hitch "lift/lower" switch to "neu-
tral" then to "lift".
