(10.6) Shutting Down The Mower; Disconnecting The Flex Arm & Mower From The Tractor - Tiger FLX10 Operator's Manual

10.6 Shutting Down the Mower
To shut down the mower, first bring the tractor to a
complete stop. Then slow down the mower by
reducing the engine speed before disengaging the
PTO. Wait for all rotating motion to stop before
proceeding to drive or shut down the tractor.
Park the tractor on a level surface, place the
transmission in park or neutral and apply the parking
brake, lower the attached mower to the ground, shut
down the engine, remove the key, and wait for all
motion to come to a complete stop before exiting the
tractor.
11. DISCONNECTING FLEX-ARM & MOWER FROM THE TRACTOR
DANGER!
Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in park, and set the parking
brake before you or anyone else attempts to connect or disconnect the Implement and Tractor
hitches.
(S3PT-15)
WARNING!
Never unhitch without using the Tongue Jack. The Tongue is very heavy. Attempting to lift
the Tongue without using the Tongue Jack could cause strains or other injury. Allowing the
tongue to fall suddenly and unexpectedly could result in crushing injury. Use the Tongue
Jack for lifting the Implement only. Overloading the Tongue Jack can cause failure with
possible serious bodily injury or even death.
Before disconnecting the mower and flex arm, the PTO must be disengaged and blade rotation at a complete stop.
Move the mower and flex arm to a level storage location and lower the center section and both wings to the ground.
If the mower will be stored with the wings in the raised position, install both wing and center section transport pins.
If the mower is not resting securely on the ground, block the mower up securely before attempting to disconnect
it from the tractor.
Use extreme care to keep feet and hands out from under the mower and clear of any pinch points when disconnecting
the mower from the tractor.
