OPERATION  
Move the lift lever backward to lower the sleeve hitch.  
To tow an implement that has a tow hitch, simply  
remove three clevis pins and then remove the Sleeve  
Hitch Lift Assembly from the Sleeve Hitch Frame  
Assembly.  
Attach an implement using the sleeve hitch pin.  
Tighten the 5/8" x 2" stabilizer bolts against the  
implement hitch and then tighten the jam nuts. See  
Figure 5 on Page 5.  
To remove the entire Sleeve Hitch attachment, remove  
the 5/8" x 1-3/4" hex bolt and 5/8" nylock nut which  
fasten the bottom of the sleeve hitch to the tractor  
hitch, then lift the attachment off the tractor.  
IMPORTANT: Some implements may require that the  
stabilizer bolts not be tightened. Refer to your implement  
owner's manual.  
The sleeve hitch is assembled in the lowest position  
by the assembly instructions. If the implement  
attached to the sleeve hitch is not level front to back  
during operation:  
a. Move the hex bolt in the lifting link to a hole  
(3 holes available) that gives better levelling.  
b. For closer adjustment, move the hex bolt  
assembled in figure 1 to a position in the three  
position slot that gives better levelling.  
MAINTENANCE  
Clean off after each use.  
Oil pivot points as needed.  
Store in a dry location.
