Page 15: Technical Specifications
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The equipment, towed by the tractor by means of a three-point hitch of the first category, acts on the turf to be mowed owing to the high rotation speed of three sharp blades driven by belts. These are mechanically driven by the tractor power take-off by means of a PTO drive shaft. -

Page 21: Check The Stability Of The Tractor-Mower Combination
CHECK THE STABILITY OF THE TRACTOR-MOWER COMBINATION INSTABILITY AND OVERTURNING HAZARD The weight of the mower changes the stability of the tractor-shredder unit, influencing the ability of steering and braking. As such proceed at a moderate speed. In particular, it must be borne in mind that the front axle must always be loaded with at least 20% of the weight of the tractor-mower combination. -
Page 22: Adjustments
ADJUSTMENTS WORK HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT The cutting height is determined by the vertical position of the pivoting wheels “A”. Lifting the wheels, the blades approach the ground and, vice versa, lowering them, the tools will move away from the ground. Adjusting the height of the pivoting wheels: •... -
Page 23: Adjusting Belt Tension
ADJUSTING BELT TENSION The rotating blades are driven in rotation by a double belt drive with manually adjustable fixed tensioner on the multiplier gearbox unit. Proper tensioning of the belts ensures that the machine operates normally reducing wear on the rotating parts. Belt tensioning must be checked every 30 working hours. - Page 24 WARNING! Before using the mower, ensure that there are no persons or animals within the range of the machine. Make sure that all guards are in place and efficient. The machine must only be used by one operator positioned inside the tractor driving cab.
