Pro Lift-N-Turn System - Progressive Turf Equipment TDR-X Operator's Manual & Parts List

Pro Lift-N-Turn
TM
The TDR-X is equipped with the Pro Lift-N-Turn
allows the operator to temporarily lift all cutting decks just off the turf
without shutting down the PTO. Utilizing the Pro Lift-N-Turn
when mowing near cart paths or other roadways, allows the operator to
move from section to section without needing to disengage the PTO and
raise the decks to the full transport position. Pro Lift-N-Turn
be used to start the mower in tall grass. Engaging the blades with the
decks raised will reduce start-up loading on the mower drivetrain.
TM
The Pro Lift-N-Turn system is activated automatically when the wings
are lowered and the pull rope released. The operator can temporarily
lift the mower decks during operation using the tractor hydraulics. Once
the mower is again in position to mow, the operator can lower the decks
and continue mowing. It is possible to perform this without disengaging
the PTO.
NOTES :
1) Always fully extend the Hydraulic cylinders after using Pro Lift-
TM
N-Turn before mowing for proper float operation.
2) Always make sure the locks and lock release cams pivot freely
and are in good condition before using this function.
The mower blades remain at cutting speed while using the Pro
TM
Lift-N-Turn system. Do not proceed into areas that may have
loose debris that may be thrown by the mower blades.
NOTE: The Pro Lift-N-Turn
short durations only. If travelling over long distances with the decks in
the raised position, disengage PTO before proceeding.
MOWING WHILE REVERSING TRACTOR
The unique design of the hitch and deck mounting allows the mower to
operate equally well in the reverse direction. This is excellent for cutting
in confined areas and cleaning up leaves in the fall.
OPERATING ON HILLY TERRAIN
When operating on hilly terrain, proceed with caution and drive carefully.
If the tractor has four wheel drive, make sure it is engaged. On two wheel
drive tractors equipped with a differential lock, apply while driving
straight on the hills; disengage to allow for normal turning.
Use care while turning on hillsides in wet conditions. The weight
of the mower behind the tractor may push the tractor
unexpectedly. Drive slowly around sand traps, river banks, etc.
