Removing And Re-Attaching The Mower - Quadivator HyperCut RD62 Assembly/Operators/Parts Manual

Looping the chain around your frame should be done in a secure place to the frame of the ATV,
there should be a connection point that is a minimum of 12" inward from the "tower" and as
much as possible, the connection point - should be in-line with the tower on the other side. Use
the provided D-Pins to lock the chain in place to the tower, the other side of the tower is bolted
to the chain!
NOTE - When installed - the tether chains are secure, but they will remove some paint from
your ATV at the attaching point when the deck operates and moves underneath you ATV as you
are mowing. If this minor paint removal is not satisfactory because of its visibility -
then find a non-visible and SECURE location in another location on the ATV!
Step 10 – Trim the excess and unneeded chain from both sides of the chain towers!
IMPORTANT – DO NOT OPERATE MOWER until all excess chain is trimmed from the
connection to the mower towers to the ATV – cut the chain to the minimum length required to
operate the mower. Failure to trim/cut chain to minimum length may cause damage to rotating
drives, cutting blades, the operator and/or bystanders.
Step 11 – Operate the ATV/Mower Unit around in the area at speeds not over 5 mph (or 8 kph)
to ensure that the connections are secure and nothing has moved or shifted in the attaching
points. Operate the unit SLOWLY - in reverse - turn right and left and then recheck for
movement from right to left when operating forward at 5 mph.
