10.10 Shutting Down the Implement

To shut down the implement, first bring the tractor

to a complete stop. Then slow down the implement

by reducing the engine speed before disengaging

the PTO.

Wait for all motion to stop before

proceeding to drive or shut down the tractor.

Park the tractor on a level surface, place the

transmission in park or neutral and apply the

parking brake, lower the attached implement to the

ground, shut down the engine, remove the key, and

wait for all motion to come to a complete stop

before exiting the tractor. OPS-U- 0016_B

Before disconnecting the mower, the PTO must be disengaged and blade rotation at a complete stop. Move

the mower to a level storage location and lower the center section and both wings to the ground. If the mower

will be stored with the wings in the raised position, install both wing transport lock braces. If the mower is not

resting securely on the ground, block the mower up securely before attempting to disconnect it from the

tractor.

Use extreme care to keep feet and hands from under the mower and clear of any pinch points. OPS-R-0030

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.

Never unhitch without using the Tongue Jack. The Tongue is very heavy. Attempting to lift

the Tongue without using the Tongue Jack could cause strains or other injury. Allowing the

tongue to fall suddenly and unexpectedly could result in crushing injury. Use the Tongue

Jack for lifting the Implement only. Overloading the Tongue Jack can cause failure with

possible serious bodily injury or even death.
