COMMISSIONING
7.1
Fitting to the tractor
Read these operating instructions carefully before commissioning the mower unit. Make absolutely sure that you
have completely understood the safety instructions. Also ensure you know how the tractor and power take-off stub
work by carefully reading the tractor and power take-off stub manufacturer's manuals.
All MASTER mulching mower units are manufactured to be connected to a tractor that has a hydraulic and universal
three-point mounting.
The tractor employed for the job must have the power, capacity and equipment required to operate the mower unit
safely. Using the mower unit on an improperly equipped tractor or tractor of the wrong size can cause damage to
the tractor and/or mower unit, and endanger the operator and bystanders.
Before attaching the machine to the tractor, place both on a flat, soft surface and make absolutely sure that nobody
is standing between the two machines.
Slowly move the tractor toward the mower unit by directing the hydraulic lifting arms of the tractor onto the two
side mounts of the mower unit mounting. Stop the engine and apply the handbrake.
Connect the lower links on the tractor to the two lower sections of the 3 point attachment of the mower unit. To do
this, use the bolts and secure them with the hinged cotter pin. Then connect the top link on the tractor with the
upper point of the 3-point mounting, then secure the bolt with a hinged cotter pin.
