BEFORE ATTACHING THE MOWER TO THE TRACTOR
1.
Make sure that the mower is suitable for your tractor's horsepower.
CAUTION: Please note that if these limits are exceeded, it will
invalidate your warranty.
2.
Make sure the lower links and top link on the 3-point hitch arms of your tractor are
the correct size (Cat. I), so that they correspond to the size of the hitch on the
mower you have purchased.
P.T.O. Installation:
3.
First, connect the P.T.O. shaft to the tractor. With the shaft in its shortest position,
there should be about a 2" clearance between the end of the gearbox shaft and the
end of the P.T.O. shaft. Should it be necessary to shorten the P.T.O. shaft, shorten
both male and female shafts equally, keeping the protective tube covers 1" shorter
than the steel tubes.
Particular attention should be given to carefully removing all burrs and to clean and
lubricate the steel tubes and protective covers. There must be sufficient telescopic
movement so that the two tubes do not touch the end of the P.T.O. shaft.
It is mot important to carefully raise and lower the mower with the tractor hydraulic
system, making sure that the P.T.O. shaft does not bottom or disengage the telescopic
shaft tubes, otherwise damage may occur.
