Transport Position

To raise mower wings, drive the unit to a level area
and retract the wing hydraulic cylinders. DO NOT
raise wings with the mower positioned on an
embankment or other inclined position to prevent
overturning the mower.
The center of gravity is raised and the mower is
more prone to tipping when the wings are in the
raised position. When transporting, raise the center
section high enough to clear ground obstacles.
OPS-R-0016_M
When the Wings are folded for transport, the center of gravity is raised and the possibility of
overturn is increased. Drive slowly and use extreme caution when turning on hillsides.
Overturning the Implement could cause the Implement to overturn the Tractor and vice
versa resulting in serious injury or even death.
Implement or unit may overturn.

Operating Position

To lower the wings, extend wing hydraulic cylinders
and fully lower wings.
The valves operating wing cylinders should be
placed in the float position while mowing to allow the
mower to follow the contour of uneven terrain and to
prevent the wings from creeping up. When
extending a wing over a ditch for mowing, place the
control valve lever detents in the center position.
This will give the mower more stability and prevent
the opposite wing from raising. DO NOT operate the
mower with the valves in the detent position for
extended periods of time to prevent deck frame
damage. OPS-R-0017_J
