ASSEMBLY

RECEIVING INSTRUCTIONS

Your Mower has been partially pre-assembled and adjusted at the factory. The complete unit consists of 4 assemblies.

(1.) Under the Guardrail Mower Assembly complete with blades and carriage arm.

(2.) Common Component Box which contains items needed to complete the assembly onto the tractor.

(3.) Hydraulic Kit containing hydraulic components specific to your tractor.

(4.) Subframe Kit containing the Subframe and related items specific to you tractor.

Inspect all shipments on receipt. If any parts are damaged or missing, file claim with the carrier before accepting shipment.

The mower should be mounted following the step-by-step sequence given. Use this manual as well as the mounting instructions contained in the Hydraulic Kit and Subframe Kit. Before mounting any part or assembly, READ THROUGH THIS MANUAL. Give careful attention to all notes on pages concerning the parts being installed, for specific information, and FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS! If you have problems or are not sure of instructions, STOP and call our Customer Service Department for help. DO NOT MODIFY ANY PARTS!

WORK SAFELY. Most of the installation can be performed by one man, but some of the parts are very heavy. GET HELP IF YOU NEED IT. Use the right tools for the job. A floor jack or hoist will be a big help, but make sure they are in safe condition. Keep the floor free from oil and grease so you don’t slip. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES, SAFETY SHOES AND GLOVES and make sure your helper does too.

NOTE: The following precautions must be observed when installing the mower’s hydraulic system:

1.Work cleanly. Keep all parts and hose ends capped until the final connections are made. Examine and clean fittings if necessary to remove foreign materials. DOn’t let dirt contaminate the system.

2.Do not use teflon or other pipe joint tape on fittings or hose connections. For pipe threads, use a pipe thread sealant compound suitable for hydraulic service.

3.After pump is installed do not run the engine until the System is filled with oil!

MOUNTING ON BARE TRACTOR

1.Remove all parts from shipping cartons and lay them out for identification. Separate hardware for easy use as needed.

2.Install the attaching parts to the tractor as described in the Subframe Kit Installation Instructions. Install subframe and valve bracket cap screws and lockwashers loosely and tighten only after all fasteners have been started. NOTE: Shimming may be required for proper alignment.

3.Install the pump bracket, pump and tank as described in the Hydraulic Kit Installation Instructions. Install pulley adapter to crank shaft of engine, next determine and cut the jackshaft to length. Pre- assemble the jackshaft, pump bracket, flexible coupling, and pump as a unit. Then, install this unit to tractor with fasteners provided. Also install the tank at this time. NOTE: To get a longer life from splined jackshaft and pulley adapters, we recommend the splines be coated with LUBRIPLATE MO-LITH #2 or equivalent. IMPORTANT: After pump is installed do not run the engine until the system is filled with oil. The pump will be destroyed if run even for a short time without lubrication which will void the warranty.

4.Mount the Under Guardrail Mower to the subframe with the 1-1/2” carriage pin through the sub- frame trunnions. LIne up the roll pin holes; insert the roll pin and drive it into place.
