OPERATION

5.4 Connecting the Mower-Pull Type

1.Make sure the tractor is equipped with the correct PTO shaft and the drawbar is extended 14” from the PTO shaft end for a 540 RPM mower and 16” for a 1000 RPM unit.

2.Block the mower wheels in place and use the attached parking jack to raise or lower the tongue clevis to the height of the tractor drawbar. The parking jack can be rotated 15 degrees in each direction to obtain a near vertical position. Note: Always place jack foot on firm surface or place board under jack for support.

3.Board the tractor and start the engine. Back the tractor to the mower aligning the drawbar hitch hole with the mower hitch clevis. Turn off the tractor engine, set the parking brake, place the tractor in park, and dismount.

4.To attach the mower, place two 1” flatwashers

(1) positioned under top lip of tongue clevis and to the top of drawbar. Add additional 1” flatwashers (2) between the bottom of drawbar and bottom lip of clevis to fill open space. Insert a 3/4” x 4-1/2” grade 5 or 8 bolt (3) through clevis and drawbar and retain in position with a 1” locknut (4). The bolt and locknut should be tightened securely to support the tongue properly without springing or breaking the clevis. Never attach mower to the tractor with a pin not having a nut.

5.Securely attach mower safety chain to tractor drawbar or drawbar support frame.

6.Lower the jack until the tongue is completely supported by the drawbar. Remove jack from the tongue and place on storage bracket of mower main frame.

7.If using a hydraulic cylinder, connect hydraulic hose ends into tractor hydraulic ports.

8.If the mower has been attached to a 3-point hitch drawbar, adjust any tractor equipped lower link check chains, guide blocks, or sway blocks to prevent the hitch and mower from swaying side to side. Note: Never raise the 3-point lift with the mower attached as catastrophic driveline damage will occur.
