SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

CONTROLS AND OPERATION

Figure 1 Adjusting the Mower

WARNING: To avoid personal injury,

stop the engine, lower mower to the

ground and allow the blades to stop

before adjusting the mower.

1. Position the tractor on a level surface. Lock the

parking brake, stop the engine and remove the key.

2.Adjust tire pressure to 12psi in all turf tires, to

16psi in AG tires.

3.Set the lower link hitch point inner spread to

category 1 (26 7/8 inches) with adjusting check

chain. Heights of rear and left lower link hitch points

should be adjusted in same each other.

4.Set the gauge wheel and rear roller to the “setting

position” cutting height, Figure 3, 4,

5. Adjust the front links so the pins can be removed

easily from the mower.

6.Start the engine and raise the mower slowly.

Loosen the lift rod, if not previously done so that the

mower will not bind against the tractor or u~ stop.

7.Stop the engine and remove the key.

8. Adjust the tumbuckles on lift rod to obtain 5mm

(1/4") space between the plate (in front of deck) and

up stop and gauge wheels are equal height from the

ground. Tighten the lock nuts, Figure 2.

Figure 2 - Adjusting the Mower

9. If major changes are made in the cutting height,

repeat steps 5 to 8.

Reinstall the gauge wheel to the arm of the deck with

a clevis pin and hair pin clip. Select the desired

cutting height, as shown in Figure 3.

MOWER OPERATION

MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR MOWER

1 When Using your mower for the first time,

choose a smooth level area and cut in straight

and slightly overlapping strips.

2. The size and type of the area to be mowed will

determine the proper mowing pattern. Take

into account obstruction, such as trees, fences

and buildings. To keep grass cuttings off

fences, sidewalks, etc., it is advisable to go

around the outside of the area to be mowed

several times in a clockwise direction. To mow

the area remaining, work in a

counterclockwise direction so the cuttings are

dispersed onto the previously cut area.

3. Always keep the left side “Trimming side” of

the mower toward trees, posts or other

obstacles on the first trip around the obstacle.

4. Most lawns should be mowed to keep the

grass approximately 2 to 3 in. (51 -76mm)

high. Best results are obtained by cutting often

and not too short. To keep a green lawn,

never mow more than one third off the height

of the grass or a maximum of 1 in. (25mm) in

one mowing. For extremely tall grass, set the

cutting height at maximum for the first mowing,

then reset to the desired height and mow

again. Allow the grass to grow to three inches,

then cut off only the top inch.

5. On thick or springy grass or soft ground, the

mower rollers may sink into the ground giving

too low a cut. Readjust the cutting height to

obtain the desired height of cut.

6. For best appearance, grass should be cut only

when it is free of moisture.

WARNING: Some illustrations in the

manual show the mower with safety

shields removed to provide a better

view. The mower should never be

operated with any safety shielding

removed.

CUTTING HEIGHTS

WARNING: To avoid injury do not

operate the mower in the transport

position.

This mower can be adjusted to cut from 1 1/2" to

4 1/4" high. Cutting heights should be determined by

cutting conditions and personal preference. The

following recommendations will provide a guide for

height selection.

Lawns .......................................1 1/2" - 2 3/4"

Field Cutting .............................2 3/4" - 41/4"

To change from one cutting height to another it is

necessary to adjust the gauge wheel and rear roller

as following

1. Start the engine and pull the lift control lever

rearward.

2. Stop the engine, remove the key and lock the

parking brake.

3. After determining the cutting height, as shown

in Figure 4, remove the pin securing the

gauge wheels and reinstall the pin in the

desired position.

4. Change the latch position which mounts the

rear roller, if necessary.

5. Make sure that the gauge wheels and rear

roller are secured.

6. Lower the mower deck with the lift control

lever pushed forward.

7. lf desired, the mower can be carried with

minimum weight on the gauge wheels by

lowering the mower so that gauge wheels are

1/4 inch from the ground. Set the stop on the

tractor lift

CONTROLS AND OPERATION

control lever at that point. Returning the lift lever to

the stop each time will return the mower to the pre-

set height.

Figure 4 Approximate Cutting heights at various

wheels and roller settings

WARNING: Stop mower and tractor

immediately upon striking an

obstruction. Inspect mower and repair

any damage before resuming operation.

CUTTING SPEED

For best mowing results, it is important that blades

be run at maximum speed. Set engine throttle lever

in FAST position, thus providing proper blade speed

and maximum engine horsepower.

Choose a ground speed which will provide the

desired finish cut, maximum operator comfort and

will not overload the mower drive. A slower ground

speed will provide a smoother operating machine

UNEVEN TERRAIN

WARNING: Be careful when operating

tractor and mower on uneven ground.

In extremely uneven terrain rear wheel weights, front

tractor weights and/or front tire ballast should be

used to improve stability.

Pass diagonally through sharp dips and avoid sharp

drops to prevent “hanging up” of the tractor and

mower. Practice will improve your skills in

manoeuvring rough terrain.

Avoid sudden starts and stops when travelling up or

down hill.

Always mow down slopes, never up or across the

face. Avoid operation on steep slopes.

Slow down on sharp turns and slopes to prevent

tipping or loss of control.

GRASS DISCHARGE

This mower was designed to provide a strong

discharge to scatter clippings and prevent clogging in

heavy cuttings. When cutting lush, thick tall or wet

grass shift to a slow ground speed setting and/or

reduce width of cut to prevent possible belt damage.

FOR BEST CUTTING DO NOT MOWWHEN

GRASS IS WET. Wet grass will cause clogging and

produce unsightly clumping on lawn.

WARNING: To avoid injury from

thrown objects keep discharge guard in

position and secure at all times. The

under side of mower deck should be

cleaned out (sprayed with water) after

each cutting with the engine stopped

and blades not rotating.

In medium and heavy cuttings plan your mowing to

discharge clippings away from uncut grass. In light

mowing discharge clippings can be directed onto

uncut grass so cut area is free of clippings and

discharged grass is re cut into finer clippings.

If mower becomes clogged, back unit out of uncut

grass and try to clear deck by engaging the

P.T.O. with the deck in the highest position. If deck

does not clear itself STOP engine, remove starter

key and clean underside of deck using a stick or

scraper. If grass build-up is excessive remove

mower from tractor and clean underside of deck

thoroughly.

CONTROLS AND OPERATION

CUTTING PATTERNS

1 Cut counterclockwise patterns as shown in

Figure 5. The blade arrangement of the

mower will then eliminate streaks of uncut

grass when the tractor turns.

2. Changing direction wastes time. Plan to keep

mower moving forward as much as possible.

3. Plan for the longest straight runs that are

possible.

4. Save the close trimming for the end.

5. Sometimes it is easier to divide a large

irregular shaped area into smaller sections,

Figure 5 centre, to keep the mower working

more steadily or to keep from reversing turning

or repeating too often.

6. In a small area, where tight turns would cause

lost time in the centre if the normal round and

round methods were used, try the cutting

method in Figure 5 right. Make the second

pass down the centre of the area rather than

down the opposite side from the pass. This

allows you to swing wide at the end of each

pass and still cut all the grass with a minimum

of reversing.

WARNING: For safe operation, when

transporting the tractor, the mower must

be locked in the transport position. It is

also necessary to lock the mower in

transport position when using the tractor

with a loader or for 3 point lift

implement. Raise the mower and lock

the lift links using the hook and pin at

the rear bracket, Figure 15.

REMOVING MOWER FROM TRACTOR

1 Drive the tractor front wheels onto a suitable

block, such as a 2x6 board, and turn the

wheels full to the left.

2. Lock the brakes, stop the engine and remove

the key.

3. Set the cutting height gauge wheels and roller

at the lowest cut position (1 1/2").

4. Lower the mower deck.

5. Pull out the lock pin of the quick attachment

and push down the quick attach lever,

removing the front links from the front bracket.

6. Pull the hooks on the mower deck and remove

the front link assembly.

7. Remove the hair pin and clevis pin holding the

lift links to the mower deck. Lock the lift links in

the transport position with the hook and pin

provided, Figure 15.

8. Remove the universal joint from the P. T. 0.

shaft of tractor.

9. Pull the mower out from under the right side of

the ‘tractor. Be careful that the gauge wheel

spindles do not damage the front wheel drive

shaft and rubber boot while pulling the mower

from under four wheel drive tractor.

10 Three-point lift implements can now be used

without further disassembly of mower

attaching parts.

11. To install the mower, reverse the above

procedure.
