OPERATING YOUR TRAILMOWER The operation of any mower can produce foreign objects to be thrown into the eyes, resulting in severe eye damage. Always wear certified safety glasses or wide-vision safety goggles over spectacles before starting any cutting machine and while operating such a machine. The operation of any cutter produces sound waves that are damaging to the human ear.
See engine manufacturer’s recommendations for the type and amount of oil and fuel used. Trail Mowers equipped with an electric start engine will need a battery (sold separately). Swisher recommends using a standard “12N12A” battery. • Make sure the tow vehicle parking brake is set, mower is level, and blades are disengaged.

When offsetting the mower do so to the side opposite the discharge of the tow vehicle. • Swisher recommends if the tow vehicle is equipped with a mid-mount mower to overlap the cut approximately 6”. This may vary depending on mowing terrain, obstacles, and/or tow vehicle.
SUGGESTED MOWING PRACTICES • Operate mower engine at full throttle to assure the best cutting performance and maximum material discharge. • Allow wet grass to dry. Wet grass will clump and collect under the mowing deck. • Mowing should be started with tow vehicle in low gear and increased only as safe mowing conditions permit.
MOWER MAINTENANCE GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS The warranty on this TrailMower does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, operator must maintain unit as instructed in this manual. Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to maintain your unit properly. All adjustments in this manual should be checked at least once each season.
BLADE CARE AND SERVICE For best results cutter blades must be kept sharp. The blades can be sharpened with a few strokes of a file or grinding wheel. Do not attempt to sharpen blades while they are on the cutter. Disconnect spark plug wire before servicing unit. Important: Replace blades that have been damaged or deeply nicked.
