OPERATION

PRE-OPERATION CHECK LIST

Operate tractor mid-PTO at no more than 2400 RPM (maximum governed engine RPM).

You may not be able to stop the tractor safely if the clutch or brake pedal mecha- nisms are improperly adjusted, allowing them to contact mower components. When the mower lift stops are installed'as instructed in this manual, properly ad- justed clutch and brake pedal mecha- nisms will not coptact mower compo- nents. You should frequently check that the tractor clutch and brake pedal mecha- nisms are in adjustment.

If the clutch or brake pedal mechanisms can contact mower components, do not operate until properly adjusted.

1.Review and follow safety rules on pages 4-7.

2.Do not operate mower unless belt shield and discharge chute are in place and securely fastened.

3.Check that mower is properly and securely attached to tractor.

4:Check to ensure blades are sharp, secure and properly installed. See Blade Condition on Page 38.

5.Check that all hardware is properly installed and secured.

6. Check to ensure spindles and caster wheels are lubricated.

7.When attaching U-joint to tractor mid-Pi0shaft, it is important that the spring-activated locking collar slides freely and the balls are seated in groove on mid-PTO shaft.

8.Check mower cutting height and attitude adjustment. See Adjusting Cutting Height on Page 29.

9.Raise mower carefully and check to be sure it does not come in contact with hydraulic lines.

10.Removegrass and other foreign material from the top of the deck.

Mower vibration tends to loosen bolts during operation. All hardware should be checked regularly to maintain proper torque. It is a good practice to check mower before each operation to ensure all bolts are secure.

.Powerfor operating mower is supplied by tractor mid-PTO. Do not exceed tractor manufacturer's rated mid-PTO speed of 2400 RPM (maximum governed engine RPM). Know how to stop tractor and mower quickly in case of an emergency.

Should mower become plugged, causing belt to slip for over two seconds, maneuver equipment into a previously cut area and allow mower to clear accumulated material. Continue running at least two minutes, allowing pulleys to cool. Stopping the mower with belt in contact with a very hot pulley will bake and ruin belt.

Stop mower and tractor immedi- ately upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine, remove key, inspect and repair any damage before resuming operation.
