What happens here
With all the components installed, start the Ventrac 4500Y tractor. From the operator's seat, use the hydraulic controls to raise and lower the newly installed 3-point hitch. Simultaneously, activate the hydraulic top link to adjust the pitch of the hitch arms, mimicking the movement of an attached implement. Observe the full range of motion and ensure all hydraulic functions operate smoothly without any binding or leaks. Make any minor adjustments to the top link or other hitch components as needed to optimize performance. Confirm all pins and connections are secure after cycling the hydraulics.
Goal: Verify proper operation of the new 3-point hitch and hydraulic top link
