HYDRAULIC

Filter buggies or carts are commercially available for hydraulic system charging. These consist of a high- efficiency, high-capacity filter, a pump, a drive motor, and hoses for supplying the machine’s hydraulic system.

After the first 10 hours of operation, replace the hydraulic filter with a new one. An extra Filter Element is provided for you. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Section for instruction.

After the VERSA PRO mower is completely assembled to the tractor and with the wings on the ground, fill the mower hydraulic tank above the oil level sight gauge approximately 1” below the top of the tank.

With mower ON/OFF switches in “OFF” position, start engine and engage PTO for about 30 to 45 seconds to allow oil to fill pumps and motors. Check the oil level in the sight gauge. If no oil is seen, add oil to bring the level up to the sight gauge.

NOTE: Do not fill the tank with oil above the level of the sight gauge. Overfilling the tank with oil after the initial filling may result in oil being discharged through the air filter on top of the hydraulic tank. Start the tractor and PTO and run it for 2 minutes and then turn it off. Again, check the oil level in the sight gauge. If the oil level is in the sight gauge, the unit is ready to run. If no oil is seen, add oil to bring the level up to the sight gauge.

Remove all foreign objects and stand clear of cutter units. DO NOT GET NEAR

ROTATING KNIVES!

NOTE: On tractor hydraulic powered circuit only, make certain that there is full flow from tractor hydraulic system to control valve. Refer to tractor manual.

After hydraulic system is fully charged and functioning properly, switch cutter units on, then speed engine up to 540 PTO speed. Maintain this speed for about 5 minutes. Check complete VERSA PRO, look for any leaks, loose connections, or anything that could cause premature wear or failure.

FINAL CHECK

Run VERSA PRO for about 1/2 hour at full speed. Check for leaks and vibrations. Frequently check oil temperature. Make certain it does not exceed 180 degrees.

DO NOT leave until unattended, and COMPLY WITH ALL WARNING DECALS.

If unit starts to make unusual noise, stop unit and check oil level. Also check for frothy oil which would indicate a leak on suction side of system.
