Important Safety Information

These are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products described in this manual.

Use Safety Lights and Devices

▲ Slow moving tractors, self-

propelled equipment, and towed implements can create a hazard when driven on public roads. They are difﬁcult to see, especially at night.

▲ Flashing warning lights and turn

signals are recommended whenever driving on public roads. Use lights and devices provided with implement.

Transport Machinery Safely

▲ Comply with state and local laws. ▲ Maximum transport speed for

implement is 20 mph. DO NOT EXCEED.Never travel at a speed which does not allow adequate control of steering and stopping. Some rough terrain require a slower speed.

▲ Sudden braking can cause a

towed load to swerve and upset. Reduce speed if towed load is not equipped with brakes.

▲ Use the following maximum

speed - tow load weight ratios as a guideline:

▲ 20 mph when weight is less than

or equal to the weight of tractor.

▲ 10 mph when weight is double

the weight of tractor.

▲ IMPORTANT: Do not tow a load

that is more than double the weight of tractor.

Use A Safety Chain

▲ A safety chain will help control

drawn machinery should it separate from the tractor drawbar.

▲ Use a chain with the strength

rating equal to or greater than the gross weight of the towed machinery.

▲ Attach the chain to the tractor

drawbar support or other speciﬁed anchor location. Allow only enough slack in the chain to permit turning.

▲ Do not use safety chain for

towing.

Practice Safe Maintenance

▲ Understand procedure before

doing work. Use proper tools and equipment, refer to Operator’s Manual for additional information.

▲ Work in a clean dry area. ▲ Lower the implement to the

ground, put tractor in park, turn off engine, and remove key before preforming maintenance.

▲ Allow implement to cool

Operating Instructions

Pre-Start-up Checklist

Read and follow the “Safety Rules” carefully. Oil Level in gearbo x All plugs and caps in gearbox have been replaced and tight-

ened properly. All mower blades, bolts & nuts are tight Inspect the blades. Make note of the wear to the blades and

the sharpness of the blades. All guards and shields are in place and secure. Grease PTO shaft and all other grease ﬁttings. Make a thorough examination of the PTO shafts. Also check

the connection to the gearbox and tractor PTO. Clear the area to be mowed of rocks, branches and other for-

eign objects.

1. Clear the area to be mowed of objects and debris that might be picked up and thrown by the mower blades.

2. Grass is best cut when it is dr y. Mowing wet grass can cause plugging resulting in grassclumps behind the mower.

3. Grass should be mowed frequently as shorter clippings deteriorate faster.

4. If mowing extremely tall grass, it is best to raise cutting height and mow the area, then lower cutting height and mow a second time at the desired height.

5. Lower mower to ground. Set tractor throttle at approximately1/4open. Engage PTOto start blades rotating.

6. Operate only with 540rpm PTO tractor.

7. At first, begin mowing at a slow forward speed and shift up until the desired speed is achieved maintaining 540 PTO rpm.

8. Mower blades will cut better at a faster rotor speed than at reduced throttle.

9. After mowing the first 50 feet, stop and check to see that the mower is adjusted properly.

10. Do not make sharp turns or attempt to back up while mower is on the ground.

11. Do not engage PTO with mower in the fully raised position. Do not engage PTO at full throttle.

12. After mowing disconnect tractor PTO and follow transporting procedures.

Transporting

Always disengage tractor PTO before transporting mower to avoid injury from thrown objects or blade contact.

When traveling on public roads whether at night or during the day, use accessory lights and devices for adequate warning to operator’sof other vehicles. Comply with all federal, state and local laws.

The mower is wider than your tractor so care should be taken when encountering oncoming trafﬁc and roadside obstructions.

Section 3: Adjustments

CAUTION

Disengage PTO, engage parking brake, shut off tractor, and remove key before making any adjustments!

Mower Chute

This mower is equipped with an adjustable grass dischargechute. Adjustments can bemadeby loosening the bolts on the front and rear of mower chute. With the mower chute in the raised operating position, grass is expelled away from the mower for a more even distributionofgrassclippings.Loweringthe mower chute will decrease the distance the grass is discharged from the mower.

DANGER

DO NOT in any condition operate mower with chute removed

Floating & Front To Back Hitch Adjustments

The 3-point hitch system on this mower has been designed for front to back flotation when mowing on uneven terrain. The lower 3-point hitch blocks also are adjustable from front to back for additional field float and tractorclearance.Thelowerhitchblocksandtoplinkrear braces can be adjusted front to back as shown in Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-2, Middle Position Floating Hitch Adjustment, in lFigure 3-2. Deviation from the 3 setting will limit field float.

6. Adjust the tractor top link in or out to place the upper hitch pin vertically above the lower hitch pin as shown in Figure 3-1, Figure 3-2, or Figure 3-3, to allow mower flotation.

7. Rotate blades in line with direction of travel.

8. Measure the clearance from the cutting edge to the ground at front and rear of the blade. This measurement should be equal or have the blade at the front of the mower not more than 1/2" lower than the blade at the rear of the mower.

Cutting Height Adjustment

1. Using the tractor, raise the moweroff the groundand support underit with secure blockingso not to let the mower drift down during maintenance.

2. Holding wheel and yoke assembly up, remove quicklockpinfrom top of gauge wheelspindle.Positionfull length spacers and half spacer as required. All spacers on top of spindle tube allows for approximately 1" cutting height. Adjustments range from 1" to a maximum of 5 1/2" in 1/2" increments. Refer to “Leveling The Mower” page 14.
