This chapter provides information for attaching mower to tractor and preparing it for field operation. Review this data prior to tractor hookup and operation.

D A N G E R !

Never allow children to operate, ride or come close to the mower or tractor. Usually, 15-16 year old chil- dren who are mature and responsible can operate the mower with reasonable safety if they have read the operator’s manual, been trained in safe operation of the machine, and are physically large and strong enough to reach and operate the controls easily.

TRACTOR PREPA R ATION

Do not install mower on a tractor over 40 HP.

W ARNING!

Do not operate tractor with less than 20% of it’s gross unballasted mass on the front wheels with the mower in the transport position.

WHEEL TREADS

Tractor wheel tread spacing should be increased when working on inclines or rough ground to reduce the possi- bility of tipping.

DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT TO TRACTOR

1.Grab and turn the collar on the end of the attaching yoke.

2.Slide yoke with the collar turned onto the tractor PTO shaft.

3.Move yoke back and forth until its locking pin has engaged on the PTO shaft groove.

W ARNING!

When attaching the driveline yoke to the tractor PTO shaft, it is important that the spring activated locking collar turns freely and that it seats properly in the tractor PTO shaft groove.

STABILIZER BARS AND SWAY BLOCKS

CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Use stabilizer bars or sway blocks to prevent side sway of the mower.

DRAWBAR

Shorten or remove the tractor drawbar so it will not interfere with the up and down movement of the mower.

W ARNING!

Do not get between tractor and mower when the engine is running.

ATTACHING THE MOWER TO TRACTOR (LIFT TYPE ONLY)

This mower is designed for tractors with 540 RPM and category I hitch. Back the tractor up to the mower so that the lower draft arms are in alignment with the mower lift pins. Stop the engine, lock the brakes or place the trac- tor in park. Connect the tractor and stabilizer bars to the lower lift pins. Adjust the top link so it will pin to the top holes in the A-Frame or into holes in floating top link.

W ARNING!

Avoid personal injury! Be sure tractor engine is off, that key is removed from ignition and allow blades to completely stop turning before dismounting to make adjustments.

Important: Avoid very low cutting heights.Striking the ground with the blades gives the most damaging shock loads a mower can encounter and will cause damage to it and the driveline.

1.Using the tractor, raise the mower off the ground and place supports underneath of it, so that it will not drift downwards while making adjustments or mainte- nance.

2.While supporting the wheel and yoke assembly off the ground, remove the snapper pin from the top of the gauge wheel spindle. Position the supplied spacers as required for achieving the desired cutting height.
