Disconnecting The Mower From The Tractor - Alamo SHD62 Operator's Manual

12. DISCONNECTING THE MOWER FROM THE TRACTOR

Before disconnecting the mower, the PTO must be
disengaged and all motion at a complete stop.
Move the mower to a level storage location and
lower to the ground. If the mower is not resting
securely on the ground, block the mower up
securely before attempting to disconnect it from
the tractor. Use extreme care to keep feet and
hands from under the mower and clear of any
pinch points.
To disconnect the implement, first extend the
tractor 3-point hitch top link to remove tension on
the top link hitch pin. When the pin is loose and
easy to rotate, remove the pin from the mower.
Next remove both lower hitch pins.
Use extreme care to keep feet and hands from under the mower and clear of any pinch points.
OPS-F-0012_A
Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in park, and set the
parking brake before you or anyone else attempts to connect or disconnect the Implement
and Tractor hitches.
Never stand or allow another person to stand between a running Tractor and the Mower
when disconnecting the Implement from the Tractor 3-point hitch. Always shut the Tractor off
completely and set the parking brake before attempting to disconnect the Mower pins from
the Tractor hitch.
After disconnecting the 3 lift points, remove the
mower driveline from the tractor PTO shaft. Lay
the driveline down carefully to avoid damaging
the driveline or its shield. Do not let the driveline
fall into mud or dirt, which can contaminate the
bearing and shorten the life of the driveline.
