OPERATION
When fitting the mower to the tractor, the telescoping driveline must be inspected to ensure that at its most compressed position, the profiles do not “bottom out”, and when at its farthest extended position, there is sufficient engagement between the profiles to operate safely. At its shortest length, there must be at least a 1” clearance between each profile end and opposite profile universal joint. At its farthest operating extension, a minimum profile engagement of 12” must be maintained.
