WARNING:
Proper securing of the pins must be inspected regularly before using the mower.

After the mower has been attached, adjust (on the flat ground) the mower's position by means of
❑
top S and lower W links.
Mount PTO shaft (B). If needed, shorten the shaft as in 5.2.
❑
The cutterbar should lean towards the driving direction.
❑
Support chain L holds up mower's linkage frame.
❑
Connect hydraulic hose to tractor's hydraulic connector.
❑
Slightly lift the hitch,
❑
Lift the support leg and secure it against falling down.
❑
After the mower has been attached to tractor, check the balance and steerability of tractor-mower
❑
set. To do this, calculate to formulas given in the appendix or weigh the set, and then drive on the
scales only with front axis of the tractor (the mower must be in transport position – lifted upwards).
If the pressure on the front axis is at least 20 % of the whole set's pressure, it means the set is
stable. If not, the front axis should be balanced.
