OPERATION

6.5 Tilt

The fourth handle in the bank of four valves actuates the TILT cylinder. This valve, like the lift valve, has four
positions.
Pull the valve handle backward and you will cause the outer rim (farthest from the tractor) to move UP until
the mower is cutting with the blade vertical, if you wish. This feature has been used successfully for trimming
hedges many feet away from the tractor.
If the handle is released, the valve will automatically return to center and the boom will be LOCKED in
position.
Pushing the handle forward will move the head in the opposite direction.
Again, if the handle is released, the valve will automatically return to c enter and the boom will be LOCKE D in
position. OPS-B- 0035_C
