DANGER!
When the Wings are folded for transport, the center of gravity is raised and the possibility of overturn is increased. Drive slowly and use extreme caution when turning on hillsides. Overturning the Implement could cause the Implement to overturn the Tractor and vice versa resulting in serious injury or even death. Never fold wings on a hillside...the Implement may overturn.
Operating Position
To lower the wings, remove the transport lock pins and secure pins at storage location. DO NOT drive out transport pins that have tension on them. After removing pins, extend wing hydraulic cylinders and fully lower wings.
Wing hydraulic control valves should be set in the float detent during operation to allow the mower to follow the contour of uneven terrain and to prevent the wings from creeping up. When extending a wing over a ditch for mowing, place the control valve lever detents in the center position for greater stability.
WARNING!
Use extreme care when lowering or unfolding the implement’s wings. Make sure no bystanders are close by or underneath the wings. Allow ample clearance around the implement when folding or unfolding the wings. Use extreme caution around buildings or overhead power lines.
