ASSEMBLY

B.Prepare the mower by using the top link to join the mower's upper hitch point to the A frame upper clevis.

C.Using the lower hitch pins, fix the A frame tube ends in the inner clevis of each lower hitch point. At this stage the lower hitch pins should not protrude into the outer lower hitch clevis.

D.Carefully reverse the tractor so that the ball joint on the tractor linkage line up with the clevis on the mainframe. Connect the mower with hitch pins that are retaining the A frame. By this time the hitch pin should pass through both A frame tubes and lift arm ball ends.

E.Connect the upper hitch point of the A frame to the tractor upper hitch point, adjusting the top link as necessary.

F.Lift machine to its working height, ensuring that the machine is level by adjusting the tractor linkage to suit.

G.Fit the top strut and the top link bracket, connecting the struts together with the two bolts provided. It may be necessary on certain tractors to twist the struts to fit.O

H.The A frame is now a rigid unit and the tractor lift arms can be lowered by removing the weight from the tractor hydraulics.

NOTE: It is important that at this stage the tractor lower link check chains are fully tightened to remove all horizontal motion from the tractor lower links.

I.Remove front and rear stands from the mainframe and store underneath the mainframe. (See Gen- eral Arrangement.)

J.Adjust the top link until the machine is square with the tractor.

FITTING PTO

NOTE: The tank must be filled with the correct grade of oil before the PTO is fitted. See Maintenance

Section.

Due to many different makes and sizes of tractor to which Servis mowers can be fitted, a nominal length of PTO shaft is supplied with the machine. In some cases it may be found that this PTO shaft is too long and will have to be shortened.

NOTE: Minimum engagement of PTO square drive is 100mm (4 in) and 150mm (6 in) for the Lemon Tube Type in the working position. This measurement must be taken into account when shortening the PTO shaft.

Before fitting PTO shaft to tractor grease the sliding drive shafts and bearing units.

Fit PTO to tractor ensuring locking pin on the splined coupling is fully engaged.
