MOWER HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

•There is approximately 3 inches of height adjustment.

•Rotate height adjust crank handle in a clockwise direction to lift the mower deck. A counter-clockwise direction is used to lower the mower deck.

•Dense areas of grass should be cut twice.

•Push handle down to lock height position.

TOW HITCH OFFSET

•When offsetting the mower do so to the side opposite the discharge of the tow vehicle.

•Swisher recommends if the tow vehicle is equipped with a mid-mount mower to overlap the cut approximately 6”. This may vary depending on mowing terrain, obstacles, and/or tow vehicle. Always keep safety the first priority.

•Always keep the tow vehicle cutter raised higher than the Trail Mower.

STARTING TO MOW

•Adjust the cutting height.

•Double check vehicle to mower attachment.

•Start mower engine and set throttle to “FAST” for best cutting performance.

•Slowly engage T-handle lever.

•Carefully mount vehicle and start mowing at a slow travel speed.

STOPPING THE MOWING SESSION

•Bring tow vehicle to a complete stop, set the parking brake and disengage blades.

•Turn key switch to the “OFF” position.

•Always remember to remove keys to avoid irresponsible usage.

SUGGESTED MOWING PRACTICES

•Operate mower engine at full throttle to assure the best cutting performance and maximum material discharge.

•Allow wet grass to dry. Wet grass will clump and collect under the mowing deck.

•Mowing should be started with tow vehicle in low gear and increased only as safe mowing conditions permit. Mowing speed should not exceed 5 MPH.

•Mowing conditions and the types of grass will vary from place to place. You may find when mowing dense areas that the pressure of the wheel tracks may cause the grass to be pushed down and not effectively mowed. If this happens you may want to mow the area twice. Once with the mower raised and the second mowing at the desired height. The second mowing should be at a right angle from the previous for best results.

•Reducing the travel speed will help mow dense growth. This allows the blades the time necessary to make its initial cut, and regain momentum to continue cutting and discharging debris properly. The engine may stall if you are mowing too fast!

•Do not attempt to mow areas that the tow vehicle cannot maneuver through and/or slopes that you do not feel comfortable riding.
