Drive safely on public roads • Always follow traffic safety rules on public roads, and following the regulations applying to driving a tractor with towed equipment on a public road. • Check that reflectors, warning signals and/or warning flags indicating protruding equipment are fitted to the machine or tractor.
WARNING LABELS Make sure warning labels are always visible and clean them when necessary. Do not use a high-pressure washer directly on the warning label. If a part with a label is replaced, or the label becomes worn or in any other way unusable, order a new set of labels. SYMBOL EXPLANATION Read the operating manual! Before carrying out work.
BEFORE USING A FLAIL MOWER Read the towing vehicle's instruction book before connecting equipment. • Check the cog belt's tension, and adjust when necessary. • Check that the flails are not defective, and replace if necessary, • Ensure that all nuts, bolts and installations are securely mounted, that all packing/ transport material such as tape, steel bands, rope etc.
STARTING THE ENGINE Read and understand the engine's operating manual before using the machine. Observe all safety regulations: Keep hands and feet away from blades and other moving parts. Ensure that bystanders are at a safe distance from the machine. Ensure that there is space between the blades and the ground/grass.
ADJUSTMENT OF CUTTING HEIGHT The cutting height can be adjusted at three (3) places: the tow bar, the support roller and the wheels. To raise or lower the cutting unit, adjust the following: raise or lower the wheels, raise or lower the tow bar and roller or the tow bar and wheels.
STEP 3 Combining tow bar and wheels: Raise or lower the tow bar exactly as described in the previous step. (Turn the turnbuckle in or out to shorten or lengthen the tow bar.) Raise the wheels by turning the levers on both sides of the machine. Check that both wheels are at the same height.
SUPPORT ROLLER AND SIDE SKIDS The main purpose of the support roller and the side skids is to prevent damage. If one of the wheels runs down in one direction, or if there is uneven ground between the wheels, the roller takes the weight of the mower and thus prevents the blades from touching the ground.
INSPECTION OF COG BELT A first inspection and retensioning must be performed after one hour's operation, to ensure that the cog belt is correctly tensioned. Check the cog belt regularly and tighten when necessary. Belt tensioning: the belt should move 20 mm (10 mm on each side) under pressure. ADJUSTMENT BOLT NOTE: When lubricating wheel bearings: take care not to pump in too much lubricant.
Never use worn, cracked or repaired shackles when replacing blades. Replace with new ones. For repairs in addition to the previously listed adjustments, contact your local dealer. SERVICE INTERVAL MEASURE Flails Before each use Replace all defective flails. Sharp blades give better results. When replacing blades, tighten bolts fully.
GREASE POINTS Grease nipple. NOTE: Left and right sides of the roller. Lubricate the indicated grease nipples regularly, and every time you rinse off the machine, to remove the water that has penetrated into the bearings during the rinsing. Inadequate lubrication can result in unnecessary wear and mechanical damage.
