 Topic: D15 II 3 point?
Posted: 01 Dec 2016 at 8:02pm |

Can someone post a pic of the correct 3 point arms on a series II, D15?I have two of them, and they both have two holes near the end of arm that implement attaches to. The manual doesn't show them. I wondered what they were for? Thanks Tracy

Not sure about 3 pt, but on SC the two hole are used for lifting front mounted cultivators (both sides). A bracket pulls a rod that raised the cultivator is mounted there using the two holes. Later styles uses the hyld system to raise the front mounted cultivator, but used the RH lift arm (two holes) to mount a depth control rod. Again on SC, not sure about 3 pt.

Move the vertical / adjustable lifting arms
to the outer holes for greater lifting power but shorter travel distance.

Tracy..mine also has the one hole...which I use for depth control chains for certain jobs...I think they were intended for the leverage discussed above....they used the same setup on D-10 and 12 which has different geometry...Mark

Here is the pictures from a operators manual and parts manual. So the 3 point on my tractor has 2 extra holes for whatever reason.

Dennis, that looks my series I, without the draft control. The series II has the heavy one piece cranks. Also note the position of the lifting arm pivot hole location on the manual and real tractor photo. Definitely two different arms. JMHO, Tracy

Yep, the top picture came out of the series II operators manual. The series I manual didn't have any information about a 3 point hitch. The bottom picture is out of the 1966 D-15 parts book and that's the only one listed.
