  • Page 14 ASSEMBLY Assembly is highly dangerous and must be carried out in strict accordance with the following instructions. We recommend that assembly be performed by qualified personnel. We also recommend that assembly be carried out in a flat, open area with no people (particularly children) nearby who could be severely injured if they were to touch or move any parts of the machine.
  • Page 15 STEP “C” The order of assembly for spacers 2-3- 4-5-6 depends on the cutting height you wish to obtain (see pg.21). A standard assembly is described in this step. Add spacers 2-3 to the wheel assemblies 1 and then insert the entire assembly in the axle seats 7.
  • Page 16 STEP “E” SPECIAL MODELS For the assembly of the front version of the mower, the preceding steps apply. Here we describe briefly what is different. Fasten brackets 1 and counter plates 2 to part “A” of the machine body using screws 3, washers 4 and nuts 5. Insert pin 6 into bracket 1 and fasten with split pins 7.
  • Page 17 5) ADJUSTMENT,PREPARATION AND USE INTRODUCTION Connection to the tractor is highly dangerous. Take great care and carry out the entire operation in strict compliance with the following instructions. Nobody should go near the area between the tractor and the machine. Check that all warning and danger signs are in place and legible.
  • Page 18 2 (see Fig. A-F). Connect the lifting arm 3 to the pins 4 of the machine and fasten with the split pins 5 (see Fig. B-C-D-F-G). Connect the tie-rod (or hydraulic cylinder) 6 to the 3 point hitch and fasten with the pin 7 and the split pin 8. Hitch 11 has two holes 12-13 to fit the variety of connecting tie-rods pins.
  • Page 19 TRANSPORT INSTRUCTIONS FOR FINISHING MOWERS Once the machine is attached to the tractor, before proceeding with the transport check to make sure all attachment pins are fully inserted in place and correctly fastened with the fastening pins. For transport, the machine must be raised by the tractor power-lift. If when raised the position reached is not satisfactory, adjust the power-lift adjustment rods 1-2.

  • Page 23 ADJUSTING THE BELT TENSION The tension of the belts 5 is set correctly by the manufacturer, but the tension must be checked periodically according to the time schedule given on pg..29, and reset to the proper tension if necessary. This check is very important, because belts that are too loose or too tight wear out quickly and impair the performance of the mower.

  • Page 25 INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO CHANGE THE BELTS The replacement of the belts 5 must be done using maximum caution, and always with the tractor shut off and the cardan shaft disconnected. First the protective covers 1-2 must be removed by unscrewing the screws at points A-B. Next, loosen the nuts 3 that fasten the slide-reduction unit-pulley assembly 4.
  • Page 26 INSTRUCTIONS FOR REPLACING THE BLADES The replacement of the blades 3 must be done using maximum caution, and always with the tractor shut off and the cardan shaft disconnected. Raise the mower body to the maximum height possible with the tractor power-lift so as to allow you to work properly on the underneath part of the mower.
  • Page 27 TEMPORARY PARKING 1) Choose a flat, hard open space away from frequented areas if possible. 2) Switch off the engine, leaving the tractor in gear. 3) Apply the parking brake and remove the ignition key. 4) Put the parking stand in the parking position. 5) Turn the angle adjustment crank so that the weight of the machine is on the parking stand, thus avoiding the risk of having the machine tip over backwards.
  • Page 28 6) MAINTENANCE DIRECTIONS All cleaning, lubrication and maintenance operation must be carried out with the machine disconnected from the tractor.
