Read articles →This short video focuses specifically on the physical hookup process of a Tractor Supply Country Line auger to a John Deere 4066R, not digging or operation. It covers removing the I-Match quick hitch (required for this auger), using rear controls solo, connecting the top link, and attaching the PTO driveshaft. Creator mentions a separate digging video. Best for owners wondering about 3-point compatibility or first-time auger attachment.

No, the I-Match has to be completely removed because the John Deere system cannot be adapted to the auger without hacking it off and welding on a bracket.
Yes, using the rear remote controls to lift the gravel bar and top link makes it easy to do solo.
Slide the yoke back like a quick connect fitting so the ball bearings inside engage fully, then let the auger up so it spins freely.
