3 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This safety symbol indicates important safety
messages in this manual. When you see this
symbol, be alert to the possibility of injury, carefully
read the message that follows, and inform other
operators.
3.1 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Ensure that the instructions in this book
are read and fully understood.
• No person should be allowed to operate
this machine unless they are fully
acquainted with all the controls and the
safety procedures.
• Never allow children or people unfamiliar
with these instructions to use this
machine. Local regulations may restrict
the age of the operator.
3.2 SAFETY SIGNS
• It is essential all safety labels are kept
legible, if they are missing or illegible
they must be replaced. If any part of
the machine is replaced and it originally
carried a safety label, a new label must
be affi xed to the replacement part.
New safety labels are obtainable from
Ransomes dealers.
3.3 STARTING THE ENGINE
• Before starting the engine check that the
brakes are applied, drives are in neutral,
guards are in position and intact, and
bystanders are clear of the machine.
• Do not run the engine in a building
without adequate ventilation.
3.4 DRIVING THE MACHINE
• Before moving the machine, check to
ensure that all parts are in good working
order, paying particular attention to
brakes, tyres, steering and the security of
cutting blades.
• Replace faulty silencers, mow only in
daylight or good artifi cial light
• Always observe the Highway Code both
on and off the roads. Keep alert and
aware at all times. Watch out for traffi c
when crossing or near roadways.
• Stop the blades rotating before crossing
surfaces other than grass.
• Remember that some people are deaf
or blind and that children and animals
can be unpredictable.
• Keep travelling speeds low enough for
an emergency stop to be effective and
safe at all times, in any conditions.
• Remove or avoid obstructions in the
area to be cut, thus reducing the
possibility of injury to yourself and/or
bystanders.
• When reversing, take special care to
ensure that the area behind is clear of
obstructions and/or bystanders. DO
NOT carry passengers.
• Keep in mind that the operator or user
is responsible for accidents or hazards
occurring to other people or their
property.
• When the machine is to be parked,
stored or left unattended, lower the
cutting means unless the transport
locks are being used.
• While mowing, always wear substantial
footwear and long trousers. Do not
operate the equipment when barefoot
or wearing open sandals.
• Check the grass catcher frequently for
wear or deterioration. After striking a
foreign object. Inspect. the lawnmower
for damage and make repairs before
restarting and operating the equipment.
• If the machine starts to vibrate
abnormally, check immediately.
3.5 TRANSPORTING
• Ensure that the cutting units are
securely fastened in the transport
position. Do not transport with cutting
mechanism rotating.
• Drive the machine with due
consideration of road and surface
conditions, inclines and local
undulations.
• Sudden decelerating or braking can
cause the rear wheels to lift.
• Remember that the stability of the rear
of the machine is reduced as the fuel is
used.

3 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
3.6 LEAVING THE DRIVING POSITION
• Park the machine on level ground.
• Before leaving the driving position, stop
the engine and make sure all moving
parts are stationary. Apply brakes and
disengage all drives. Remove the starter
key.
3.7 SLOPES
TAKE EXTRA CARE WHEN WORKING ON
SLOPES
• Local undulations and sinkage will
change the general slope. Avoid ground
conditions which can cause the machine
to slide.
• Keep machine speeds low on slopes and
during tight turns.
• Sudden decelerating or braking can
cause the rear wheels to lift. Remember
there is no such thing as a “safe” slope.
• Travel on grass slopes requires particular
care.
DO NOT USE ON SLOPES GREATER THAN 15°
IMPORTANT: When working on any slope set the
weight transfer, if fi tted to its maximum (+) setting.
3.8 BLOCKED CUTTING CYLINDERS
• Stop the engine and make sure all moving
parts are stationary.
• Apply brakes and disengage all drives.
• Release blockages with care. Keep all
parts of the body away from the cutting
edge. Beware of energy in the drive which
can cause rotation when the blockage is
released.
• Keep other people away from the cutting
units as rotation of one cylinder can cause
the others to rotate.
3.9 ADJUSTMENTS, LUBRICATION AND
MAINTENANCE
• Stop the engine and make sure all moving
parts are stationary.
• Apply brakes and disengage all drives.
• Read all the appropriate servicing
instructions.
• Use only the replacement parts supplied by
the original manufacturer.
• When adjusting the cutting cylinders take
care not to get hands and feet trapped when
rotating cylinders.
• Make sure that other people are not touching
any cutting units, as rotation of one cylinder
can cause the others to rotate.
• To reduce the fi re hazard, keep the engine,
silencer and battery compartments free of
grass, leaves or excessive grease.
• Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.
• When working underneath lifted parts or
machines, make sure adequate support Is
provided.
• Do not dismantle the machine without
releasing or restraining forces which can
cause parts to move suddenly.
• Do not alter engine speed above maximum
quoted in Engine Specifi cation. Do not
change the engine governor settings or
overspeed the engine. Operating the engine
at excessive speed may increase the hazard
of personal injury.
• When refuelling, STOP THE ENGINE, DO
NOT SMOKE. Add fuel before starting the
engine, never add fuel while the engine is
running.
• Use a funnel when pouring fuel from a can
into the tank.
• Do not fi ll the fuel tank beyond the bottom of
the fi ller neck.
• Replace all fuel tank and container caps
securely.
• Store fuel in containers specifi cally designed
for this purpose.
• Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while
refuelling.
• If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the
engine but move the machine away from
the area of spillage and avoid creating any
source of ignition until fuel vapours have
dissipated.
• Allow the engine to cool before storing in any
enclosure.
• Never store the equipment with fuel in the
tank inside a building where fumes may
reach an open fl ame or spark.
• If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should
be done outdoors.
• Do not spill fuel onto hot components.
• When servicing batteries, DO NOT SMOKE,
and keep naked lights away.

over-tighten as too much pressure will
distort the stirrup and cause jamming.
3. Fit the lifting link (D) to the lifting lever
and lug (E), on the rear of the cutting unit
bottom block. The two nuts on the main
body of the link should be pointing away
from the cutting cylinder. The fi xed short

6.7 COUPLING THE GANG MOWERS
TO A TRACTOR
(Fig. 17). The tractor drawbar must be fi xed. If it
is a swivelling type, a bracket (A) must be fi tted to
prevent it from tipping up or down. Stabilisers must
be fi tted to the lower links of the tractor to prevent
movement from side to side. Bolt the tractor hitch
(B) to the tractor drawbar and tighten securely.

UNIT TRAILED GANG MOWER (Fig. 17)
With the lubricating nipples on top insert the
univers al coupling (C) and secure with bolt. If the
space between the two plates is too wide for the
universal coupling fi t plain washers (D) as required.
The long bolt which holds the universal coupling
between the plates should be inserted from the top.
It must not be overtightened as this will squeeze
in the plates. The universal coupling must be free
to swivel. Couple the drawbar to the universal
coupling with the hitch pin and clip. The chain at
this point must hang freely underneath the drawbar
to prevent damage.
TRACTOR TOWING HITCH FOR 9 UNIT
TRAILED GANG MOWER
The tractor loop (A, Fig. 18) is bolted to the centre
of the tractor drawbar. The yoke ~s supported
by the adjustable stand (A, Fig. 19). The tractor
can then be reversed so that the tractor loop is
beneath the hook on the yoke. The foot rest is then
retracted allowing the hook to locate in the tractor
loop. A safety catch (B) must be raised and held in
position by the drop pin.
ALIGNMENT AND ADJUSTMENTS
(Fig. 20). With the tractor on level ground and the
drawbar set at 15” from the ground check that the
top of the unit frame is horizontal. If it is not it can
be adjusted by withdrawing the bolts from the front
of the unit frame (A). This will allow the front of the
unit frame to be raised or lowered to give correct
level. The bolt should be replaced in the nearest
hole but check that the distance piece inside the
unit frame is in position before securing.
Adjust the rear roller of the cutting unit to give the
height of cut you require, then check the position
of the lifting link (B). The sliding part of the link
should be in a mid way position, i.e. half the link
shoud be outside the square main body and half
inside, ensur ing maximum fl oat of the cutting unit
over ground undulations. The lifting lever can be
moved to any one of three positions to give this
adjustment. The lever is secured by a pin (C) which
should be placed into the nearest hole when the
link is in its correct position.
If the height of cut is altered you must check the
position of the lifting link and adjust as necessary.
The chain (D) at this point should be over the lever.
The outfi t as far as assembly and alignment is con-
cerned is now ready for use but before putting it
into work it must be serviced.

7.1 LUBRICATION
GEAR CASE
Machines are despatched without oil in the
gearcases which must be fi lled to the correct level
before use. (Fig. 21). Correct lubrication of the gear
box is essential for long life and good performance.
Each gear box—there is one on the left and one on
the right of the cutting unit—must be provided with
oil up to the level of the oil level plug (A). Remove
this plug to check oil level. If necessary remove
fi lter plug (B) and top up until oil appears from level
plug hole. Replace the oil level plug ensuring that
the fi bre washer is in position. Never top up without
removing level plug. The correct grade of oil for
gear boxes is SAE 140. If the unit is used with
other manufacturers frame work which tilts the unit
on end the gear box should be lubricated with non
tracking grease to prevent leakage. Check level
monthly.
REAR ROLL
(Fig. 22). There are two lubricating nipples (A) in
the rear roller carriages which must be lubricated
weekly using oil in the lubricating gun.
DRAWBAR
Each drawbar and universal coupling has four
nipples
(B and C), which should be lubricated weekly.
Do not lubricate the sliding parts or attachment
points of the lifting links (D). Oil on these points will
collect dirt and grit which will accelerate wear.

SAFETY AND OPERATORS MANUAL
8.1 OPERATING PROCEDURE
1. Under no circumstances should the engine be started without the operator seated on the tractor.
2. Do not operate tractor or attachments with loose, damaged or missing components. Whenever
possible mow when grass is dry
3. First mow in a test area to become thoroughly familiar with the operation of the tractor and control
levers.
Note: To prevent damage to the reel and bottom blade never operate the reels when they are not
cutting grass. Excessive friction and heat will develop between the bottom blade and reel
and damage the cutting edge.
4. Study the area to determine the best and safest operating procedure. Consider the height of
the grass, type of terrain, and condition of the surface. Each condition will require certain
adjustments or precautions.
5. Never direct discharge of material toward bystanders, nor allow anyone near the machine while in
operation. The owner/operator is responsible for injuries infl icted to bystanders and/or damage to
their property.
6. Use discretion when mowing near gravel areas (roadway, parking areas, cart paths, etc.). Stones
discharged from the implement may cause serious injuries to bystanders and/or damage the
equipment.
7. Stop and inspect the equipment for damage immediately after striking an obstruction or if the
machine begins to vibrate abnormally. Have the equipment repaired before resuming operation.
To help prevent injury, always wear safety
glasses, leather work shoes or boots, a
hard hat and ear protection.
CAUTION
Pick up all debris you can f nd before
mowing. Enter a new area cautiously
Always operate at speeds that allow you to
have complete control of the tractor
CAUTION
Before you clean, adjust, or repair this
equipment, always disengage all drives,
lower implements to the ground, engage
parking brake, stop engine and remove key
from ignition switch to prevent injuries.

SAFETY AND OPERATORS MANUAL
8.3 OPERATING THE GANG MOWERS
1. (Fig. 23). Engage the cutting unit drive by
pulling out and turning the gear selectors
(A) on each side of the cutting unit to a
vertical position and ensure that the cross
pin (B) is located in the vertical groove.
Both selectors must be in drive otherwise
overloading and also wheel slip will be
caused.
2. The correct towing speed is dependent
on ground conditions.
Average conditions 6—8 kph (4—5 mph).
Good, relatively smooth ground
conditions 9—11 kph (6—7 mph).
Speeds of up to 16 kph (10 mph) can be
used where ground conditions permit.
3. If the rear rolls bounce slow down. It is a
sign that you are going too fast.
4. The speed of the machine should be fast
enough to give a good grass throw from
the rear of the unit. This will ensure even
distribution of the cut grass behind the
machine and give a good appear ance
and also prevent grass being carried
round by the cutting cylinder and choking
it.
Fig 23
Fig 24
8 OPERATION
The daily inspection should be performed
only when the engine is off and all f uids
are cold. Lower implements to the ground,
engage parking brake, stop engine and
remove ignition key.
CAUTION
8.2 DAILY INSPECTION
1. Perform a visual inspection of the entire unit, look for signs of wear, loose hardwear and missing or
damaged components. Check for fuel and oil leaks to ensure connections are tight and hoses and
tubes are in good condition.
2. Make sure all cutting units are adjusted to the same height of cut.
3. Check all tyres for proper infl ation.
5. Avoid rapid acceleration or violent
engagement of the tractor clutch. Pull
away gently to avoid shocks to the
transmission, this will help consid erably
towards obtaining long life and good service from your machine.

9.1 MAINTENANCE
CUTTING CYLINDER ADJUSTMENT
(Fig. 24). Before use, check the cutting cylinder
adjustment, which must be set correctly and locked.
To do this, check the adjustment by revolving the
cutting cylinder manually and testing with thin paper,
newspaper will do. If the paper is not cut cleanly,
unlock the bottom block locks (A) by turning them
clockwise. Next turn the nut (B) on top of the bracket
clockwise a little at a time until the cutting cylinder
will cut paper cleanly. The cutting cylinder MUST
spin freely. Retighten the bottom block lock securely,
adjusting nut (B) as necessary to maintain correct
setting. The correct setting of the unit is essential for
good performance and long life.
HEIGHT OF CUT ADJUSTMENT
(Fig. 25). The machine is supplied to give a medium
cut. To alter the height of cut remove the bolts (A)
which secure the rear roll carriages and move the carriages up or down as required. Replace and securely
tighten the bolts.
Note The nuts (B) need not be slackened to do this.
Caution A machine should never be used with the
bottom blade pressing on the ground as the cutting
cylinder may be damaged by the bottom blade being
forced upwards, also the wear is greater and the
machine will be harder to work.
TYRE PRESSURE
The tyre pressure should be maintained at 1.05 kg/
cm
2
(15 psi).
SCRAPER
Scrapers are intended for use in wet, muddy conditions and should be adjusted so that they are just clear
of the rear roll. They must never be allowed to contact
the rear roll.
REMOVING THE CUTUING CYLINDER
(Fig. 30). The cutting cylinder can be removed without
dismantling the remainder of the machine. Remove
the small cover (A) and gasket from the main gear
cover. Take out the four screws securing the cylinder
housing (B) to the side frames. The cylinder can
now be lifted out by a steady upward pull applied
simultaneously to each end of the cylin der.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
After use, it is recommended that you clean off the
machine, brush or wipe oil on to the cutters. A few
turns in reverse when you are doing this will scrape oil
on to the edge of the bottom blade.
Fig 25
9 MAINTENANCE
If the machine is washed down use low pressure
only, otherwise water will be forced into the bearings
and housings and cause corrosion which will shorten
the working life.
Use only genuine parts supplied from your
approved Textron Turf Care and Specialty
Products Dealer, when maintaining and
repairing your equipment.

10.1 TRANSPORTING
TRAILED GANG UNITS
1. When moving from site to site the cutting
cylin ders must be out of gear, but this
must not be done while the machine is in
motion.
2 (Fig. 26). When trailed gang mowers are
moved along paths or roads the rear rolls
must be raised clear of the ground by
locking the lifting lever in the top hole (A)
of the unit frame.
TRANSPORTING TRAILED GANG MOWERS IN
TRAILERS AND TRUCKS
(Fig. 27). All drawbars and coupling frames can
be quickly removed and the frame dismantled into
easily transportable units. The lifting levers must be
anchor ed in the bottom position (A) and the nose
of the rear unit pinned into the top lifting lever hole
(B) of the front unit. By this method a three unit or
fi ve unit mower can be coupled nose to tail and
winched up to a truck or trailer.
The unit fi tted with extension wings must be the
last of the series. When close packing fi ve unit and
seven unit mowers which include two unit frames
fi ted with one extension wing each, it is necessary
to use the trailing hitch (C). This should be fi tted to
the lifting hole (D) of the second last unit frame and
the nose of the last frame pinned through the hole
in the hitch (E). The lifting lever of the last frame
should be allowed to fl oat.
MOUNTED TRIPLE MOWER
For road transport the machine must be raised and
locked for safety to reduce the overall width of the
machine to comply with the Ministry of Transport
Regulations.
1. (Fig. 28). Remove locking pins (A) from
hole in brackets (B) at both sides of the
machine.
2. (Fig. 29). Attach check chains (A) to main
axle of outer cutting units.
3. Lift machine by operating tractor hydraulic
lift.
4. (Fig. 28). Replace locking pins (A) in
brackets (B) at both sides of the machine.
After transporting, the above procedure is reversed
