INTRODUCTION
Product Description
The VENTRAC HM600, HM720 and HP720 mowers have a cutting width of approx. 60”
and 72” respectively. The “uni-body” design creates a lightweight, heavy-duty, and high
performance deck plus a streamlined carrier frame. With the removal of two pins
beneath the cross frame, the deck can be tilted to a near vertical position for cleaning
and servicing. The top side of the deck is designed to eliminate trapped grass, dirt and
water.
Four carrier points, two adjustable connecting links and one cross shaft comprise the
complete mechanism for controlling the cutting height. A single handle with a slight
outward pull allows an easy quick change in cutting height selection. A slide release
allows the handle to be returned to the deck level to prevent it from catching on low
branches and shrubs.
These mowers, with near full width rear rollers and large, pneumatic, front swivel caster
tires, are designed to float over the terrain independent of the tractor. The traction
transfer system on the VENTRAC 4000 series tractor reduces mower weight on the
ground, decreases the steering effort, and increases the traction of the tractor.
These attractive two-tone, smooth styled mowers with a high performance discharge
tunnel, offer an unusual combination of efficiency, effectiveness and end results.
Careful, proper, and safe operation of tractor and mower will result in a great mowing
job.
The model HP720 provides a 6-1/2” offset of the mower to the left side. The mower still
has a centered appearance because of the right side discharge chute. The offset
creates a better “reach” on the left side of the deck for mowing under low tree branches,
fences, or over the edge of ditches and water.

OPERATION
Operating Instructions
Attaching:
1. Drive the tractor slowly forward into the hitch arms of the mower. Align the lift arms
with the mower hitch arms by raising or lowering the front hitch and complete
the engagement. Note:
when mower cutting height is set in a low position. Set cutting height to the highest
position.
2. Once completely engaged, close the front hitch locking lever.*
3. Engage the parking brake and shut off engine.
4. Place attachment belt over the outside groove of the PTO drive pulley on the tractor.
Ensure the belt is properly seated in each pulley.
5. Engage the PTO spring tension lever.*
6. Engage the weight transfer system as desired.*
Note: It is recommended for most mowing operations that the weight transfer system be
fully engaged when using the mower deck. Adjust as required.
Mower arms may be too low to engage tractor hitch arms
Detaching:
1. Park the tractor on a level surface and set the parking brake.
2. Lower the mower to the ground.
3. Shut off tractor engine.
4. Disengage the PTO spring tension lever.*
5. Remove the attachment belt from the PTO drive pulley on the tractor.
6. Disengage the hitch locking lever.*
7. Restart the tractor and slowly back away from the mower.
*Refer to tractor manual for operation of controls.
Operating Techniques and Tips:
Be sure to select or confirm that the mower is set to cut the height that you prefer.
Setting is done by lifting the handle into the catch slot, pulling the handle outward and
moving the mechanism to another position on the adjustment scale. Cutting height
range is approximately 1-3/4 to 4-3/4 inches. After selection has been engaged, release
the handle from the catch slot and return it to a horizontal position. Never
height with PTO engaged.
adjust cutting
Operator must be sitting on the tractor seat before the PTO can be engaged. The tractor
engine should be running between 2,000 and 3,000 RPM before engaging the PTO
switch. Near full engine RPM (3,600) is recommended for most mowing. If a good cut
can be maintained and there is sufficient power, reducing the engine speed by 200 or
300 RPM will result in improved fuel economy and reduction in the wear-and-tear on the
equipment.
C-1
OPERATION
Operating Techniques and Tips (cont.)
Travel to and from the area to be mowed should generally be done with the
mower raised in transport position by the tractor hydraulics. This saves the
wear-and-tear on the mower and needless scuffing and rolling over the various
surfaces between mowing jobs. Moderate speed should be used in transport in
order to maintain control and reduce the shock load from uneven terrain.
Disengage the PTO to prevent air turbulence over dusty surfaces and/or when
traveling over rough terrain.
When mowing, always place the front hitch S.D.L.A. lever in the FLOAT position
by moving it outward to the second position until the detent engages. The lever
will stay in this position after engagement.
Wet or lush grass has some tendency to build up under the deck. Periodic
checking, especially if mowing performance seems to be reduced, will let the
operator know if the deck should be cleaned.
Many operators prefer to mow back and forth in order to create the popular stripe
pattern in the cut grass. The full length roller very effectively rolls the cut grass
in the direction of travel.
Blades should be kept in good condition. Sharp blades will increase
efficiency and improve the quality of cut.
When mowing grass on level to gently rolling terrain, the tractor can be
operated in HIGH range in most conditions. If the grass is tall or mowing
conditions are difficult, use LOW range. When mowing slopes, always
use LOW range with the engine at full throttle.
Be very cautious when mowing slopes. It is
recommended that weight transfer be engaged and
that the front hitch is set in FLOAT position.

OPERATION
Mulching Kit
The mulching kit consists of 3 baffles, a discharge cover and 10 carriage bolts and nuts.
Kits are HM600—39.55150
turn the deck upside down or if mounted on the tractor (with park bake engaged and
ignition key removed), tilt the deck to the servicing position and install the kit according
to the drawing below.
NOTE: 1-The longest baffle goes in the center.
2-The deepest baffle goes to the left (discharge) side.
3-The saw-toothed edges will be facing the ground in mowing
position when installed.
4-Check for blade clearance. The saw-tooth edges should extend
beyond the end of the blade at least 1/4 inch. Slight reshaping of
baffles may be necessary for proper fit.
If the deck has been used, make sure it is clean before installation of parts. Blades do
not have to be removed for the installation but it is important that the blades are sharp
and in good condition. Low lift or mulch blades are recommended for mulching. Install
all parts before tightening the bolts. Once all parts are in place, tighten all ten bolts
(Torque to 14-16 ft/lbs.) A 1/2” box end wrench or socket drive is recommended in
order to tighten the bolts securely.

Mulching procedures may vary greatly due to climate, type of grass and soil conditions.
Some trial and error may prove helpful in getting the best results. In general it is best to
mow frequently and in dry conditions. Leaves are usually cut up and dispersed better
when some grass is cut in the mulching process. Generally a little more power is
required for mulching. When grass is tender, heavy, and/or wet, frequent deck cleaning
may be necessary. After mowing for a few minutes, turn the engine off, raise the deck,
and make a quick check on all ten bolts to assure that they are tight!

Removal and Reinstallation of Mower Blades for Sharpening or
Replacement:
Caution: Blades may be sharp, wear heavy gloves when working with blades.
1. Park tractor on a smooth, level surface.
2. Raise deck to the highest position.
3. Set parking brake, shut the engine off, and remove the key.
4. Remove the 2 latch pins, lift the front of the mower deck to a near vertical position
and reinstall the latch pins into the same holes.
D-1
MAINTENANCE
5. To remove each blade, place a short piece of2x4wood between the end of the
blade and an appropriate structural part of the underside of the deck to prevent
rotation.
6. Loosen the blade bolt counterclockwise and remove the blade for sharpening or
replacement.
7. When reinstalling a blade, the wood block must be placed on the opposite side to
prevent rotation for tightening. Tighten so that blade is firmly held in place. (75-80
ft/lbs) Additional tightening may occur while mowing. This is due to blade rotation.
8. Always install the spindle guard between the bolt head and the bottom of the blade.
This serves as a support washer as well as reducing the potential for bearing
damage from wrapping string or wire.
Deck Belt Replacement:
(HM600 Serial# AA1001-1357) (HM720 Serial# AA1001-1188) (HP720 Serial# AA1001-1066)
If the deck belt is excessively worn or cracked, install a new belt.
This is done most easily with the deck removed from the tractor.
1. Remove the rear lid of the deck.
This is done by raising the lid and sliding it to the right to release hinge pin on the left side.
2. Remove cotter pin from cross-over support in the center of the hitch.
3. Release the belt tension by loosening the idler adjustment rod. (Refer to illustration

Mower Tire Pressure:
Mower tire inflation pressure should be maintained at 8-10 psi. Pressure variables are
one cause for an uneven cut.
Deck Leveling Procedure:
(Check for bent blades before making adjustments)
1. Before making any deck leveling adjustments, check pressure in both mower tires.
Inflate or deflate to 8-10 psi.
2. Set mower on a level hard surface. Select a high cutting height position with enough
distance from floor surface to bottom side of blade for measuring.
D-4
MAINTENANCE
Deck Leveling Procedure (cont.):
3. Go to one side of the deck. Turn blade so that the tip is at the back of the deck.
Measure the distance from the floor to the blade.
4. Move to the other side. Turn that blade tip to the back of the deck. If this
measurement is different from the first, adjust the threaded rod linkage directly
above on the top side of the deck until the measurement is the same as the first
side.
5. Once the deck has been leveled side to side, rotate the same tip of the blade to the
front and measure. The distance to the floor should be the same or slightly less
than (not to exceed 1/8”) the rear measurement. Front adjustment is made by
loosening the cross bolts in the frame that extends toward each front tire. The bolts
are in slotted holes. Moving them forward lowers the deck. Moving them toward
the rear raises the deck.
Note:

Seasonal Storage:
Before the mower is stored, thoroughly clean both the underside of the deck and any
accumulated clippings or debris on the top side.
Sharpening Blades:
It is recommended that blades be sharpened and balanced by a professional. Maintain
balance, same bevel, and length of sharpened surface.

If this warranty covers a consumer product as defined by the Magnusson-Moss warranty act, no warranties,
express or implied, (including, but not limited to, the warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular
purpose) shall extend beyond the applicable time period stated in bold face type above.
If this warranty covers a product used commercially or for any income producing purpose, the foregoing
warranties are in lieu of all other warranties and no representations, guarantees or warranties, express or
implied, (including, but not limited to, a warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose), are
made by V.P.I. in connection with the manufacture or sale of its products.
The engine warranty is covered by its respective engine manufacturer. Please refer to the engine
manufacturer’s warranty statement that is included in the owner’s manual. V.P.I. does not handle warranty

and is not covered under warranty by Ventrac and/or V.P.I. V.P.I.’s responsibility in respect to claims
is limited to making the required repairs or replacements, and no claim of breach of warranty shall be cause
