  • Page 11: Operation

    OPERATION Operating Instructions Attaching: 1. Drive the tractor slowly forward into the hitch arms of the mower. Align the lift arms with the mower hitch arms by raising or lowering the front hitch and complete the engagement. Note: Mower arms may be too low to engage tractor hitch arms when mower cutting height is set in a low position.
  • Page 12 OPERATION Operating Techniques and Tips (cont.) Travel to and from the area to be mowed should generally be done with the mower raised in transport position by the tractor hydraulics. This saves the wear-and-tear on the mower and needless scuffing and rolling over the various surfaces between mowing jobs.
  • Page 13: Mulching Kit

    OPERATION Mulching Kit The mulching kit consists of 3 baffles, a discharge cover and 10 carriage bolts and nuts. Kits are HM600—39.55150 and HM720—39.55151 . To install the mulching kit, simply turn the deck upside down or if mounted on the tractor (with park bake engaged and ignition key removed), tilt the deck to the servicing position and install the kit according to the drawing below.
  • Page 14: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE Lubrication Grease zerks are located as shown below. Apply 2-3 pumps of grease per spindle approximately every 50 hours of operation. All others bearings—one pump max! Do not overgrease. In very dirty, sandy, or wet conditions, more frequent greasing may be advisable.
  • Page 15: Deck Belt Replacement

    Deck Belt Replacement: (HM600 Serial# AA1001-1357) (HM720 Serial# AA1001-1188) (HP720 Serial# AA1001-1066) If the deck belt is excessively worn or cracked, install a new belt. This is done most easily with the deck removed from the tractor.
  • Page 16: Deck Belt Replacement

  • Page 17: Drive Belt Replacement

    MAINTENANCE Deck Belt Replacement (cont.): 3. Remove the left hitch arm mounting bolt and lift the hitch arm up from the mounting brackets on the deck. 4. Remove old belt. Note that one belt loop must surround the left hitch arm. This is the reason for removing the left hitch arm mounting bolt.
  • Page 18: Storage

    MAINTENANCE Deck Leveling Procedure (cont.): 3. Go to one side of the deck. Turn blade so that the tip is at the back of the deck. Measure the distance from the floor to the blade. 4. Move to the other side. Turn that blade tip to the back of the deck. If this measurement is different from the first, adjust the threaded rod linkage directly above on the top side of the deck until the measurement is the same as the first side.
