DEALER SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
The mower as received from the factory is virtually completely assembled and requires minimum time to
complete assembly and is ready for sale.
ASSEMBLY
Select a suitable work area large enough to allow for lowering of the wings. Use extreme caution when
connecting the mower to the tractor. The mower should be securely resting at ground level or sitting on blocks.
Keep hands and feet from under the mower deck and clear of pinch points between the tractor and mower.
The unit comes with all axles and axle arms attached and tires on the center unit. Wing tires will need to be
attached to the wing axle arms and if the unit has dual wheel center axle arms, two tires will be assembled to
these axle arms.
On a fully assembled unit, do not release the Wing Lock Pin until the hoses are attached to
the tractor and the Wing Cylinders are filled with oil. Always keep bystanders away while
raising and lowering the wings.
To lower the wings, hook the hydraulic hoses to the tractor. From the Operators
Seat use the tractor hydraulic control levers to fill wing cylinders with oil (Refer to
Operation Section). Keep coworkers and bystanders away from the implement
while filling. For implements with the wings in the raised or transport position,
filling the cylinders should raise the wings slightly and loosen the wing lock pin.
DO NOT release the wing lock pin if there is a force on the lock. Use tractor
hydraulic control levers to lower the wing(s). Continue to hold the control lever
until both wings are down and the wing cylinders are fully retracted or extended.
Continue to cycle the cylinders several times by raising and lowering the wings
fully to remove any trapped air. If there is sponginess during the raising cycle, this
may indicate that air is entrapped in the hydraulic circuit. Continue to cycle the
cylinders until all sponginess is removed.
The implement wings should lower slowly when they are allowed to float down
and are not powered down. This is a safety feature built into the system. If the
wings fall rapidly, have the cylinders repaired before operating the implement.
