1. a) the maximum vertical force which can be exerted by the hydraulic lift at the lower hitch points throughout their full range of movement;

NOTE 1 A static test provides an adequate comparison between tractors. The test results are used only as a means of comparing tractors and not as a way of recommending the size of an implement which can be carried by the tractor.

NOTE 2 This test procedure can be used to determine the lifting capacity of front-mounted three-point hitch systems.
