IMPORTANT

■Avoid very low cutting heights. Striking the ground with blades gives one of the most damag- ing shock loads a mower can encounter and, if this occurs repeatedly, it will cause damage to mower and drive.

Transport Lock Operation

There may be occasions when you would like to use your tractor for tasks other than mowing but do not want to remove the mower. For your convenience we have provided a method to lock the mower up and free the tractor auxiliary valve or 3-point arm for implement use.

1.To engage lock-up bar, raise mower to maximum height, then lift lock-up handle and drop into outer gate. This will lock mower in raised position.

2.To return to operating position, raise mower to maximum height, then raise lock-up handle and move to inner gate. Mower will now raise and lower freely.
