I'm having a heck of a time getting my BH on. This is a first time effort for me and sometimes I think that the subframe shrunk in the rain.
My question concerns some advice in the JD manual on attaching the BH.
step 9 with the swing lock pin in place and the boom lock pin removed:
"Use boom and stabilizer control levers to alternately raise the boom and stabilizers, pivoting the subframe on the draft link pins until ......"
What do they mean 'alternately'. How does raising the boom tilt the subframe? Does 'alternately' mean first one stabilizer and then the other? If I do that it tilts the subframe to the side. Does 'raise the stabilizers' really mean 'retract the stabilizers and lower the BH assembly'?
When backing the tractor into position over the BH subframe, you can't see the draft link pins. So how do you align the tractor?
