Agricultural tractors — Test procedures — Part 2: Rear three-point linkage lifting capacity

Specifies test procedures for determining the lifting capacity of rear-mounted three-point linkage systems: a) the maximum vertical force which can be exerted by the hydraulic lift at the lower hitch points throughout their full range of movement; b) the maximum vertical force which can be exerted by the hydraulic lift, at a point 610 mm to the rear of the hitch points on a frame attached to the three-point linkage, throughout its full range of movement; c) optionally, the ability of the lifting system to maintain the load in the lifted position without hydraulic power.
