3.PTO Installation In some cases it will be necessary to shorten the PTO assembly to match your particular tractor. The following procedure should be used: 1. Check that the driveline is the correct length. The minimum coupling length (overlap) must be no less than 150mm (6 inches) in each work position.The driveline travel must still be about 25mm (1 inch) in the maximum coupling (overlap) position.
PRIOR TO OPERATION BEFORE PUTTING Mower INTO SERVICE IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO OPERATING MUST BE FOLLOWED. MOWER SHIPPED WITHOUT OIL IN GEAR BOXSAND WITHOUT GREASE IN GREASE FITTINGS. UNIT MUST BE SERVICED BEFORE USING. Fill Gearbox using Multipurpose Gear Oil (SAE90). For all Grease Fittings use a high-temp/multipurpose grease. STEP1 Place Mower so that the deck is secure and level.
Page 22
Preparation Never operate the tractor and Mower until you have read and completely understand this manual, the Tractor Operator's Manual and each of the messages found on the safety decals on the tractor and Mower. Personal protection equipment including hard hat, safety glasses, safety shoes, hearing protection and gloves are recommended during assembly, installation, operation, adjustment, maintenance, repairing, removal, or moving the implement.

Disengage Power Take Off (PTO) and place tractor transmission in neutral before attempting to start engine. Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope or chains can become entangled in the working parts of the Mower. These objects could then swing outside the housing at a greater velocity than the blades. Such an occurrence is extremely hazardous. Inspect the cutting area for such objects before slashing.
MAINTENANCE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The Cutting Height Adjustment The cutting height can be adjusted by the roller assembly and tail wheel assembly. When adjusting, first lift the mower by hanging, then loosen the fastening bolts of the roller assembly, and then tighten the bolts after adjusting to the appropriate height; Adjust the tail wheel after completing the adjustment of the roller.

Maintenance Safety Good maintenance is your responsibility. • Follow good shop practices • Keep service area clean and dry. • Be sure electrical outlets and tools areproperly grounded. • Use adequate light for the job at hand. Make sure there is ample ventilation. Never operate tractor engine in a closed building. The exhaust fumes may cause asphyxiation.
Page 26
AFTER EVERY EIGHT HOURS OF OPERATION 1. Grease PTO shaft as per instructions listed on bottom of next page. 2. Check Cutter Beam for any signs of damage and check Retaining Nut to gearbox is tight and split pin is still in place. 3.
Page 27
PTO Shaft Maintenance The PTO shaft is designed to telescope to allow for dimensional changes as the machine goes through its operating range. A tubular guard encloses the driving components and is designed to remain stationary on a turning shaft when required. The shaft should telescope easily and the guard turn freely on the shaft at all times.
STORAGE After the season’s use, the machine should be thoroughly inspected and prepared for storage. Repair or replace any worn or damaged components to prevent any unnecessary down time at the start of next season. To insure a long, trouble free life, follow the procedure outlined below: 1.
