Maintenance

4.Set the handle for cutting height setting. Release the handle by pressing in the button and turning it to the horizontal position, so that it does not catch on bushes etc.

The height interval is between 25 - 127 mm (1”- 5”), 7 positions.

Tilt angle

The machine must be on a flat surface.

1.Check the tyre pressures 100 kPa / 1.0 bar / 14.5 PSI and 150 kPa / 1.5 bar / 21.7 PSI for the pivot wheels.

2.Measure the distance between the ground and the front and rear edges of the unit.

3.The rear edge of the cutting unit should be 6 - 9 mm (1/4” - 3/8”) higher than the front edge of the unit.

4.Unscrew the lock nut and turn the adjustment screw. Extend the stay in order to raise the rear edge of the cutting unit.

5.Then tighten the lock nut to the mounting.

Ground pressure

The ground pressure is hydraulically governed in the floating position. With weight transfer engaged, a lower ground pressure on the unit's pivot wheels is obtained while the ground pressure on the machine's front wheels is increased. Can only be adjusted by an authorised workshop.
