CY84 03/08 Operation Section 4-15

OPERATION

Setting Deck Pitch - Lift-Type

1. Lower the mower until the rear of the mower is resting securely on its tail wheels.

2. Lower the 3-point lift arms further until the front of the mower is at least 3/4” lower than the rear.

3. Place the tractor’s 3-point control lever stop at this point to maintain the deck pitch.

Setting Deck Pitch - Pull-Type

1. Adjust the leveling rods linking the tongue to the rear axle until the front of the mower is at least 3/4” lower

in the front than the rear. To lower the front, lengthen the leveling rods and to raise the front, shorten the

leveling rods.

To facilitate safe and efficient operation, the mower

should be operated with the deck approximately

3/4” LOWER IN THE FRONT THAN THE REAR.

Operating the mower at this pitch will allow the

mower to cut the grass only once and requires less

work from the tractor. In addition, a more even

distribution of the clippings from the rear of the

mower will be achieved with this deck pitch.

Adjust the leveling rods linking the tongue to the

rear axle until the front of the mower is at least 3/4”

lower in the front that than the rear. To lower the

front, lengthen the leveling rods and to raise the

front shorten the leveling rods. IMPORTANT:

Adjust the leveling rods the same amount and

maintain equal tension in the rods. Improper adjustment may cause rods to snap or bend. Retighten the

amnuts after the deck pitch has been set. OPS-R-0002

8. DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT

The driveline yoke and tractor PTO shaft must be

dirt free and greased for attachment.

To connect the mower driveline to the tractor PTO

output shaft, pull the driveline yoke collar back and

align the grooves and splines of the yoke with those

of the PTO shaft. Push the driveline yoke onto the

PTO shaft, release the locking collar, and position

the yoke until the locking collar balls are seated

onto the PTO shaft. Push and pull the driveline

back and forth several times to ensure a secure

attachment. OPS-R-0003_A
