ASSEMBLY
TRAVEL LOCK MOUNTING
Install the travel lock bracket with pin and clip on the draft beam. Slide the draft beam and align the travel lock bracket hole with the mounting hole on the main frame. Install the capscrew, lockwasher and hex nut as shown in the picture.
Raise the deck/flail to it’s upright position (Deck ear touches to stop bolt as shown in the picture). Drill a 13/16” hole to the deck/flail ear through the draft beam as shown below. Insert the supplied pin and clip through the hole.
DECK / MOTOR FEEDLINE
Install the 1” hoses from the motor to the solenoid valve. Refer to the parts section for detailed information about hoses and fittings for this application.
Install split hoses around hydraulic hoses where they contact sharp edges, or any other edges that may rub hoses.
Be sure that all grease zerks are installed in the draft beam pin bosses. Grease all areas of the draft beam according to the instructions in the maintenance section.
Fill hydraulic tank with fluid as recommended in the Maintenance Section. BE SURE TO OPEN THE BALL VALVES. Start the tractor and operate the inboard cylinder through the entire stroke and the outboard cylinder through the bottom ¾ stroke repeatedly to clear the
lines of air. DO NOT run outboard cylinder out to full stroke until stop bolt has been adjusted!
Check for oil leaks at all fittings and connections using a piece of paper or cardboard. If a leak is found, you must shut down the tractor and set the cutter head on the ground. Before attempting to fix the leak, you must actuate the lift valve handles several times to relieve any pressure in the lines. DO NOT USE HANDS TO CHECK FOR FLUID LEAKS!
Raise the three point hitch and check the tractor internal hydraulics, fill to proper level if needed.
