ASSEMBLY
HYDRAULIC LIFT SYSTEM
The hydraulic Lift System requires one single acting hydraulic circuit for operation. The system is comprised of
one hydraulic cylinder with depth stop collar, and allows all wheels to be raised and lowered simultaneously.
Before operation all air must be purged from the hydraulic lift circuit. Fully raise the cutter and hold the tractor's
hydraulic control lever forward for 5 minutes to allow oil to fully circulate through the hydraulic circuit.
DRIVELINE SHIELD CHAINS
Attach CV shield chain to tractor or cutter hitch
allowing sufficient slack for turning.
IMPORTANT: OSHA, ASABE, and SAE standards
require that all rotating shafts be guarded against
contact. The unchained plastic shields can rotate
with the driveline but must stop when they contact
another object.
NOTE: Driveline Shields may also be chained to
the gearbox cone using the supplied chains.
The shields must be regularly greased and
checked that they rotate freely on the driveline.
Refer to the Lubrication section for greasing
intervals.
