Transporting The Mower - Progressive Turf Equipment TDR-30 Operator's Manual And Parts List

TDR-30 Operator's Manual
Operators must check the operation of the Pro Lift-N-Turn™ system
prior to the start of each shift. Ensure that each latch plate (3 total) is in
the fully lowered (flat) position and the outer wing cylinder stops (2) are
in place before starting to mow.
If the Pro Lift-N-Turn™ system is actuated with the PTO running,
and any of the latch plates are not in the correct position, the Pro
Lift-N-Turn™ system cannot prevent that deck from rising too far.
Damage to the PTO drive will result. It is the responsibility of the
Operator to ensure the Pro Lift-N-Turn™ system is functioning
properly before use.
