Optional Mower Head Installation

Attaching Flail-Axe Head:

1.With a Forklift or Hoist, lower the boom Weldment on the Flail Axe Head. Align the boom Weldment with the Flail Axe Head Hitch Post. In- sert special bolts (item 1 p/n 02956972 and item 2 p/n 00752405) into Boom Weldment and Hitch Post. Attach nuts (item 3 p/n 02030300 and item

4p/n 00037200) to bolt and tighten securely. Note: Additional support may be needed at the end of the Boom to aid in installation.

2.Install Hoses p/n 02972573 (#1) and p/n 02972573 (#2) in positions shown. Fully extend and retract tilt cylinder and insure hoses do not bind or kink then secure fittings. Tighten any leak- ing Hydraulic Fittings. If fluid still leaks, loosen the fitting, apply a pipe thread compound to the end threads and tighten. Care must be taken when tightening can cause the fittings to crack and re- quire replacement fittings. Use recommened hose end and torque values found in chart on page 22.

3.Warning, Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Relieve pressure before unhooking hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all connections before apply- ing pressure. Keep hands and body away from pinholes and mozzles which eject fluids under high pressure. Use a piece of cardboard to search for leaks. If any fluid under pressure is injected into the skin, it must be surgically removed withing a few hours by a doctor familiar with this type injury or gangrene may result.

4.Hoses should not interfere with mower op- eration such as being pinched, kinked or entering the cutter housing. The hoses may be twisted slightly. To hold them up and/or inward tighten the fitting once the proper location is found.

*Note the position of hoses and fittings. It is important that they are installed as shown.
