Hooking a mounted plow to a tractor you've never adjusted goes faster with the factory book open, and this Ford 6700, 7700 operator manual PDF (OEM 42670020, 100 pages) is that book for both models. Draft control, position control, and the flow control valve each get their own setup walkthrough, so your three-point hitch responds the way the linkage engineers intended. Lubrication and maintenance fills roughly a fifth of the pages, from the service chart through fluids, filters, and winter storage, with troubleshooting sections for starter, engine, clutch, brakes, and steering. Set clutch pedal free travel between 1-1/4 and 1-1/2 inches, hold idle at 600 to 700 rpm, and snug injector stud nuts to 10-15 lbs. ft., all straight from these pages. A tractor parked over a linkage question is daylight you don't get back. Bookmarked and text-searchable, this PDF lives wherever the 6700 or 7700 does: download it and keep it in the cab.

Ford 6700, 7700 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Tractor pulls to one side when braking or brakes drag on road travel
Measure free travel at both brake pedals; each should read 1-1/4 in. (25-32 mm), with the adjustment shown on page 82. Uneven travel between pedals makes the tractor pull to one side. Set both pedals equal, latch them together for road travel, and check the troubleshooting procedures starting on page 86 if the drag continues.
Manual Section: Lubrication and Maintenance p. 82Front tires scrubbing on the edges and steering wanders at road speed
Measure front wheel toe-in with the wheels straight ahead; the spec is 1/4-1/2 in., listed on page 92. Adjust the tie rods per the tread setting section starting on page 53, and recheck after locking the clamps. Match tire pressures side to side and grease the front axle per the chart on page 64 before the next road haul.
Manual Section: Tread Setting and Dual Wheels p. 53Frequently Asked Questions
What are the torque specs for the front axle adjustment bolts on a Ford 6700, 7700 tractor?
The axle adjusting bolts for the front axle must be tightened to 145 lbs. ft. (20 kgm). p. 57
How do you fix ford 7700 Dual Power stuck and clutch will not disengage when shifting gears?
Measure clutch pedal free travel: it should be 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 in. (31 to 38 mm), with the adjustment procedure on page 71. Too little travel keeps the clutch partly engaged and makes shifting fight you. Work the pedal through full strokes, grease the linkage pivots per the chart on page 64, and readjust before the next field day. p. 71
How do you fix PTO shaft will not turn after engaging the control lever with implement attached?
Verify the PTO control lever moves fully to engaged, following the procedure on page 39. Engage at low idle, 600-700 rpm, never at working speed. Check the implement yoke locks onto the shaft splines and the shield turns freely. If it still will not turn, have the dealer inspect the PTO clutch. p. 39
How do you fix three-point hitch lifts slowly or hydraulics fade after the oil warms up?
Check rear axle oil level before anything else; low oil aerates when hot and the lift fades. Confirm the system selector lever and flow control valve settings per the hydraulic system section starting on page 43. Run the engine well above the 600-700 rpm idle range; idle flow will not carry a loaded hitch through the headland turn. p. 43
