Farm Power

Subtopic: Selection, operation, maintenance and repair of I.C. engines

Question Statement:

Which of the following statements regarding tractor three-point hitch operation modes are CORRECT?

Options:

  • (A) In position control mode, the hydraulic lift arms hold the implement at a constant depth relative to the tractor chassis.
  • (B) In draft control mode, the hydraulic system senses implement draft and raises or lowers the implement to maintain a pre-set draft force.
  • (C) Draft control is especially advantageous when plowing through undulating ground with varying soil textures.
  • (D) Restrained link operation relies entirely on implement gauge wheels to determine depth with no hydraulic pressure in the rockshaft cylinder.

Answer Key:

A, B, C

Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation

Statements A, B, and C are correct definitions and applications of position and draft control modes in three-point hitches. Statement D is incorrect: in restrained-link operation, depth and weight transfer are controlled through hydraulic oil held in the tractor rockshaft ram cylinder.
