and the area being cut.
• Do not let other interests distract you.
• Do not put hands or feet near or under
rotating parts. Keep clear of the
discharge opening at all times.
• Before cleaning, inspecting, or repairing
your mower, stop the engine and make
absolutely sure the blade and all moving
parts have stopped. Then disconnect the
spark plug wire and keep it away from
the spark plug to prevent accidental
starting.
• Do not operate your mower if it vibrates

eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye
safety mask for over the spectacles or standard safety glasses.
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children.
Children are attracted to the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that
children will remain where you last saw them.
Stopping
• Move blade clutch lever to disengage position.
• Turn key switch to the OFF position.
Attaching Mower to Tow Vehicle
• Place mower behind tractor and back tractor up
to it for attaching.
•
Slide tow bar of mower over tractor drawbar so
that holes line up.
• Insert hitch pin until it extends through the
bottom of the tow bar.
•
Place safety latch over end of the hitch pin. The
red tether is used to manually disengage the
blades in normal operation, and automatic disengage the blades if the tow vehicle
becomes separated from the Trailmower.
• A black tether is used to manually engage the
blades of the Trailmower without leaving the
operator position.
• It is important that you securely attach both
the blade engage and disengage tether to
the tow vehicle.
Never operate this mower
securely attached to the tow
vehicle.
Transporting Your Mower
• Disengage blades.
• Shut off mower engine.
• Place mower deck in the highest cutting
position.
Starting to Mow
• Adjust mower cutting height.
•
Start mower engine.
• Move throttle to RUN position.
• Move mower blade clutch lever to the engaged
position to start mower blades.
Never operate the
both discharge chute cover in
the
place.
Mower Height Adjustment
Shut off mower and remove
spark plug wire before making
any adjustments to the mower.
• The mowing height range is approximately 11/2 to 4-1/2 inches. The heights are measured
from the ground to the blade tip with the engine
not
running.
• The average lawn should be cut to
approximately 2-1/2 inches during the cool
season and to over 3 inches during hot months.
For healthier and better-looking lawns, mow
often and after moderate growth.
• For best cutting performance, grass over 5
inches in height should be mowed twice. Make
the first cut relatively high, the second to
desired height.

Cutting Height Adjustments
• Rotate height adjust crank handles (item #8
and #5 in fig. 4) in a clockwise direction to
raise the mower and in a counter-clockwise
direction to lower.
• Make sure that height adjustment is the same
on both sides of the mower, as indicated by
the graduated scales on the height
adjustment tubes.
• NOTE: Graduated scales are for reference
only.
Front to Back Adjustment
To obtain the best cutting results, the mower housing
should be adjusted so that the front is approximately
¼” to ¾” lower that the rear. To check for front to
back adjustment, measure from the bottom edge of
the deck to the ground at both the front and rear of
the deck.
Tow Hitch Offset Assembly
This Trailmower has been designed to run offset from
the center of the tow vehicle to provide additional
cutting width. (Refer to fig. 2 for assembly
information)
• The adjustable tow hitch of this mower can
be assembled in several positions from
straight to 58” offset to either side.
•
We recommend when towing with a tow
vehicle equipped with a mid mount mower to
offset the Trailmower to overlap the cut of
the mid mount mower by 6”. This will need to
be adjusted depending on the type of terrain,
obstacles, and the tow vehicle being used.
•
If your tow vehicle is not equipped with a mid
mount mower the hitch can be adjusted to a
straight position, but we recommend using
the offset position to eliminate grass being
crushed by the tow vehicle.
Shut off mower and remove
spark plug wire before making
any adjustments to the mower.
Tow Hitch Offset Assembly
• Please refer to figure 2 for the assembly of
the hitch bar.
Before Starting Engine
•
Fill engine with oil. (See engine manual for
proper procedure and requirements.)
• Add gasoline. Fill tank using fresh clean
unleaded gasoline.
Fill to bottom of fuel tank filler
neck. Do not overfill; wipe off
spilled oil or fuel. Do not store,
spill or use gasoline near open
flame
To Start Engine
Keep the blade clutch lever in
“Disengaged” position when
starting engine
Make sure spark plug wire is properly
•
connected.
Place throttle control in “Choke” position if the
•
engine is cold. A warm engine may not
require choking to start.
•
Turn key to start position. Release key
immediately when engine starts.
• When engine starts, move throttle control to
the “Run” position. (Full throttle)
• Allow engine to warm up for a few minutes
before engaging blades.
NOTE: If at high altitude (above 3000 ft) or in cold
temperatures (below 32° F), the carburetor fuel
mixture may need to be adjusted for best
performance. (See service and adjustments
section of engine manual.)

Suggested Mowing Practices
While your mower will cut grass taller than 5”,
the horsepower required and some change in
you may have to mow the area twice, the first
found if the second mowing is at a right angle
material. Regulate ground speed by selecting

Caution:
actually begin mowing.
• Start engine, engage blade control to start
blades rotating and allow blades to rotate for
approximately five minutes to break in mower
and engine.
Shut off mower and remove
spark plug wire before making
any adjustments to the mower.
• Mowing should be started with tractor in low
gear and speed increased only as mowing
conditions will safely permit. This speed
should not exceed 3-1/2 MPH.
• Better mowing results will be obtained in
grassy areas if they are mowed when the
grass is approximately 4-5” maximum height.
you will experience a substantial increase in
finished appearance of the area mowed.
Mowing conditions will vary from place to
•
place, including the types of grass that are
being mowed, such as fine stalk, coarse
stalk, dense or sparse grasses. When
mowing tall grass, you may find that the
pressure of wheel tracks may cause certain
grasses to be pushed downward and will not
be mowed properly. If this condition exists,
mowing with the mower raised and the
second at the normal height you have
chosen. If it is practical, better results will be
in travel to the previous mowing.
• Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet grass
will accumulate under the mower deck and
leave undesirable clumps. Allow grass to dry
before mowing.
• Always operate mower at full throttle when
mowing to assure better mowing
performance and proper discharge of
a low enough gear to give the mower cutting
performance as well as the quality of cut
desired.

Mower Maintenance
General Recommendations
The warranty on this Trailmower does not cover items
that have been subjected to operator abuse or
negligence. To receive full value from the warranty,
operator must maintain unit as instructed in this
manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically
to properly maintain your unit.
All adjustments in the service and adjustments
section of this manual should be checked at least
once each season.
Before Each Season
Replace the spark plug.
•
• Clean or replace the air filter.
• Check blades and belts for wear.
A new spark plug and clean air filter assure
proper air-fuel mixture and help your engine run
better and last longer.
Before Each Use
Check engine oil level. (Do this twice to
•
ensure an accurate reading.)
Check blade operation.
•
• Check for loose fasteners.
Daily Maintenance
Make sure all nuts and bolts are tight, cotter pins
and retainer clips are secure. Keep blades sharp.
Observe all safety precautions.
Blade Care and Service
For best results, mower blades must be kept sharp.
The blades can be sharpened with a few strokes of a
file or on a grinding wheel. Do not attempt to sharpen
while on mower.
Do not handle mower blades
improper handling may result in
serious injury.
• To remove blade for sharpening, use wooden
block to hold blade while removing the blademounting nut. The nuts have right hand
threads.
When grinding, care should be taken to
•
maintain blade balance and the blade should
be checked for proper balance before
reinstalling on mower.
Check and balance. File material off heavier
•
end of blade until it is balanced.
To ensure satisfactory operation, it is
recommended that before the start of each
mowing season, the old blades be discarded and
replaced with new blades.
NOTE: Check nuts and blades occasionally to
make sure nuts are tight.
Shut off mower and remove
spark plug wire before making
any adjustments to the mower.
Cleaning the Mower
Water pressure from a garden hose will remove fresh
clippings from the underside of the mower. Clean
mower after each use.
Repair Parts
Your Trailmower has been produced with
components designed for your unit. Although
standard V-belts, bearings, blades, pulleys, etc. may
look like parts used on your rotary mower, and while
similar in appearance, many are of a different
construction and could in some cases cause a
malfunction in the operation of the machine.
For continued satisfactory performance, use only
repair parts supplied by the manufacturer. See your
SWISHER dealer for replacment parts.
