OPERATION

Make certain that the Boom swing path is clear of bystanders, power lines, and obstruction to prevent injury, electrocution, and possible machine damage. Swing Boom SLOWLY CAREFULLY. Avoid sudden starting and stopping.

VERSA BOOM DIPPER

The third handle in the bank of four valves actuates the DIPPER cylinder. Like the swing valves, this has three positions.

Pulling the valve handle causes the boom DIPPER cylinder to lift the small boom UP.

Make certain that you do not lift the head in such a fashion that you lift the left rear wheel off the ground. Install weight as needed to keep at least 1000 lbs. on the left rear wheel.

If the handle is released, the valve will automatically return to center, and the boom will be LOCKED in position. Pushing the valve handle will lower the boom.

Again, if the handle is released, the valve will automatically return to center, and the boom will be LOCKED in position.

VERSA BOOM 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 center and the boom will be LOCKED in position.

If the handle is pulled as far back as it will go, it will be LOCKED in the float position. This will allow the head to pivot freely and follow the contour of the ground if the mower head does not have wheels or rollers, the mower head should be operated and controlled so that the head remains slightly above the ground surface since it will not float on the skid shoes alone.
