6. Hook driveline safety chain on the Rotary Cutter
end of driveline to the cutter frame. Re-latch
safety chain to driveline shield.
7. Start tractor and raise Rotary Cutter just enough
to remove support blocks.
8. Slowly engage tractor hydraulic 3-point control
lever to lower the cutter while checking for
sufficient drawbar clearance. Move drawbar in,
aside or remove if required.
9. Raise and lower implement to find maximum
extended driveline length. Check to make
certain the driveline does not exceed maximum
allowable length recorded in step 2.
10. If needed, set tractor 3-point lift height to stop
driveline from exceeding maximum allowable
length.
11. Continue with "Check Driveline Maximum Angle"

IMPORTANT: To avoid premature driveline
breakdown, do not exceed an angle of 25° up or
down with the driveline while driveline is rotating.
If needed, set tractor 3-point left lever to limit
driveline angle at a maximum of 25° up.
1. Raise and lower implement to find maximum
driveline angle. Check to make certain the
