Mowing Tips		TRANSPORTING

Look down and to the rear and make sure area is clear before operating in reverse.

Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.

Do not stop, start, or change directions sud- denly on slopes.

Use extreme care and reduce ground speed on slopes and rough terrain.

Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during operation.

CAUTION

Stop power unit and equipment immediately upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine, remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before resuming operation.

Maximum recommended ground speed for cutting or shredding is 6 miles per hour. Adjust tractor ground speed by using higher or lower gears to provide a clean cut without lugging tractor engine.

Tall material should be cut twice. Cut material higher the first pass. Cut at desired height at 90 degrees the second pass.

Always raise unit and install transport locks before transporting. Leak down or failure of mechanical or hydraulic system can cause equip- ment to drop.

Always attach safety chain to tractor drawbar when transporting unit.

Never exceed 20 mph (32.2 km/h) during trans- port.

Do not operate PTO during transport.

Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.

Do not operate or transport equipment while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

CAUTION

Always comply with all state and local lighting and marking requirements.

Remember, sharp blades produce cleaner cuts and use less power.

Before entering an area, analyze it to determine the best procedure. Consider the height and type of mate- rial to be cut and the terrain type (hilly, level or rough, etc.).

Shredding

The cutter may be used to shred various crops includ- ing green manure, straw, stubble, asparagus residue, corn stalks and similar crops in preparation for tilling. It may also be used to shred pruning in orchards, groves and vineyards.

Each shredding operation may require a different set- up. Start with front edge of cutter high. Adjust up or down as necessary with attitude rod. Experiment until you obtain the results you want. (See Attitude Rod Adjustment, page 16.)

When shredding attitude is set, check that the distance from the bottom rear edge of the wing to the ground matches the bottom edge of the rear center section to the ground. With the cutting height and attitude estab- lished, adjust the driveline carrier bearing in the H- frame to ensure the front driveline is parallel to the ground.

Lock-Up

Always transport with wings and center frame in the raised, locked position. Place equipment on a level sur- face before raising wings.
