Operating Instructions - King Kutter 999998 Operation And Parts Manual

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This mower was designed to CUT PASTURE GRASS AND ROUGH AREAS UP TO 1"
IN DIAMETER.. Use of your rotary mower to cut any material larger than 1" in diame-
ter may damage the mower and void your warranty.
PRE-OPERATIONAL ADJUSTMENTS
Set tractor's lift control stop at a position that will prevent the PTO shaft from coming
in contact with the front edge of the mower when it is at full lift. Consult your tractor
manual for instructions.
CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
To prevent mower blades from striking the ground or hidden objects, your mower
should be set to the highest position that will give the desired cutting height. By setting
your mower up this way you reduce blade wear and stress to the mower. Mowing at
regular intervals will yield far better results than periodic mowing (i.e. less wind row-
ing). To adjust cutting heights follow these steps.
STEP 1
Raise rotary mower off the ground with the tractor and SECURELY
BLOCK IN POSITION. Remove 5/8" bolt from adjusting bracket. (See
Figure K)
STEP 2
Move the A-frame tail wheel up or down to desired cutting height. Rein
stall 5/8" bolt and tighten to secure in position. (See Figure L)
Note: It may be necessary to loosen the A-frame tail wheel attachment
bolts. (See Figure D, page 9)
