Steps for Installation of Case 5-5 and New Holland 4-3, 5-3,
and 6-3 Front 3-pt. Kits
- Remove the tractor suitcase weights
- Loosely place Top Hook (F) on Universal Main 3-pt. Rear Plate (C) (leave about 1/2” of gap).
- Hang the 2 combined brackets (C & F) on tractor weight bracket similar to hanging a Suitcase Weight.
- (CASE 5-5 ONLY) Loosely bolt parts (D) and (E) together as shown in the diagram. The (E) parts should be oriented with the return over the bolts.
- Place the 2 side parts (D) + (E) against the side of the tractor weight bracket and align holes with tractor weight bracket side holes and the holes in the back of part (C).
- Slide the (D) brackets upward so they contact or come close to contacting the bottom of the tractor weight bracket. Keep in mind the purpose of these (D) brackets is to keep Top Hook (F) from slipping off of the Tractor Weight bracket. Keep it slid upward, towards the bottom of the Tractor Weight Bracket.
- Tighten all bolts using thread-locker where needed.
- Inspect GAP between part (D) and the bottom of the tractor weight bracket itself. Should be no more than 3/8”. If the gap is more than 3/8” loosen the 4 bolts at the front of part (D) and adjust gap.
- Couple part (B) to part (C) using the supplied bolts.
- Install the 2 grease zerks at the bolt end of part (B)
- Install the two 2” X 8” Hydraulic cylinders with the tube end towards part (C) or the tractor.
- Install part (A) onto the bottom of part (B). The ⁄ ” bolt should go from the INSIDE to the OUTSIDE of part (B).
