OPERATION

7.1 Setting Mower Height- Lift Type - (Standard or Quick Hitch)

1.Park the tractor and mower on level ground.

2.Using the 3-point hitch control lever, position the front of the mower with the side skids 1” less off the ground than desired cut height. For example, for a 3” cut, position the skids 2” from the ground. Set the 3-point control lever stop at this position to maintain this height when raising and lowering the mower.

3.Shut down the tractor and remove the key.

4.Adjust the mower deck front to rear by extending or retracting the 3-point top link. Always set front of deck 3/4” lower than rear for

best performance.

5.

6.Level the mower side to side by manipulating one lower lift arm length. On most tractors, at least one of the lift arms is designed to allow for manipulation of its length. Shortening or extending will allow for deck leveling from side to side.

7.Securely block up the mower at this height.

8.Remove the bolts securing the tailwheel beam in position and allow the tailwheel to rest at ground level. Align tailwheel beam between nearest sets of holes in beam support brackets and reinstall support bolts on each side of beam. Tighten all bolts and nuts.
