TOW HITCH OFFSET
ADJUSTMENT
This tow behind mower has been designed to mn offset
from the center of the tow vehicle to give additional
cutting width.
o
The adjustable tow hitch of this mower can be set Jn
four positions, straight,
Appro×imately
15" offset,
29" offset and 39" offset to either side. (See Fig. 5)
®
When cutting with a tow vehicle already equipped
with a 42", 46", or 50" mower, we recommend
using
the 39" offset. When cutting with a tow vehicle
equipped with 36", 38" or 40" mower, use the 29"
offset position.
When cutting heavier grass or
when conditions warrant, adjust the mower to the
15" offset position.
o
If tow vehicle is not equipped with a mid mount
mower the hitch can be adjusted to a straight
position, but we recommend
using the offset
position to eliminate grass being crushed down by
the tow vehicle.
