RCP2660, RCPM2660, RCP3060 & RCPM3060: Parallel Arm Rotary Cutter: 316-111M:
Attach Stabilizer Turnbuckles
Refer to Figure 5-4 on page 44:
NOTE: The Kubota tractor must be hooked-up the
Parallel Arm Cutter, driveline installed, and cutter
deck leveled before stabilizer turnbuckles can be
installed. Once the turnbuckles are installed, the
3-point lower arms and upper center link can not be
adjusted to level the cutter.
1. Attach Parallel Arm Cutter to the tractor and install
the driveline. Refer to "Hook-up Rotary Cutter" on
page 14 for detailed instructions.
2. Make certain the cutter deck has been leveled before
installing the turnbuckles. Refer to "Deck Level
Adjustments" on page 33
3. Raise 3-point arms with the tractor control lever until
driveline is horizontal.
4. Shut tractor down properly without changing the
height of the tractor's lower 3-point arms. Refer to
"Tractor Shutdown Procedure" on page 37.
5. Place jacks under the cutter's 3-point mainframe and
adjust jacks up until against the mainframe to keep
the 3-point lift system from falling while installing
turnbuckles (#9A & #9B).
6. Loosen jam nut (#12) and adjust turnbuckle (#9A)
until lower holes in turnbuckle clevis align with hole in
lower left-hand link mount (#1). Do not tighten jam
nut at this time.
7. Attach jam nut end (#12) of turnbuckle (#9A) to the
lower left-hand link mount (#1) with bent pin (#10).
Secure bent pin with hairpin cotter (#11).
8. Repeat steps 6 & 7 to attach turnbuckle (#9B) to
right-hand lower link mount (#2).
9. Tighten right-hand stabilizer turnbuckle (#9B) until
you can not tighten it any more.
10. Loosen left-hand stabilizer turnbuckle (#9A) as much
as possible.
11. Tighten 1 1/2"-6 jam nuts (#12) against
turnbuckles (#9A & #9B).
