7.5 Setting Deck Pitch-Lift Type
1. Lower the mower until the rear of the mower is resting securely on its tail wheel.
2. Lower the 3-point lift arms further until the rear of the mower is at least 3/4" higher than the front.
3. Place the tractor's 3-point control lever stop at this point to maintain the deck pitch.

7.6 Setting Deck Pitch-Pull Type

Adjust the leveling rod linking the tongue to the rear axle until the front of the mower is at least 3/4" higher in
the front than the rear. To lower the front, lengthen the leveling rod and to raise the front, shorten the leveling
rod.

8. DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT

The driveline yoke and tractor PTO shaft must be
dirt free and greased for attachment.
To connect the mower driveline to the tractor PTO
output shaft, pull the driveline yoke collar back and
align the grooves and splines of the yoke with those
of the PTO shaft. Push the driveline yoke onto the
PTO shaft, release the locking collar, and position
the yoke until the locking collar balls are seated
onto the PTO shaft. Push and pull the driveline
back and forth several times to ensure a secure
attachment. OPS-R-0003_A
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.

9. PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION AND SERVICE

Before each use, a pre-operation inspection and service of the implement and tractor must be performed.
This includes routine maintenance and scheduled lubrication, inspecting that all safety devices are equipped
and functional, and performing needed repairs. DO NOT operate the unit if the pre-operation inspection
reveals any condition affecting safe operation. Perform repairs and replacement of damaged and missing
parts as soon as noticed. By performing a thorough pre-operation inspection and service, valuable down time
and repair cost can be avoided. OPS-U-0029
Always disconnect the main PTO Driveline from the Tractor before performing service on
the Implement. Never work on the Implement with the tractor PTO driveline connected and
running. Rotating Parts, Blades or Drivelines could turn without warning and cause
immediate entanglement, injury or death.
