HDTH 8 Finish Mower 09/20
Operation Section 4-21
© 2020 Alamo Group Inc.
OPERATION
OPERA
TION
Follow these guidelines to reduce the risk of equipment and grass fires while
operating, servicing, and repairing the Mower and Tractor:
● Equip the Tractor with a fire extinguisher in an accessible location.
● Do Not operate the Mower on a Tractor with an underframe exhaust.
● Do Not smoke or have an open flame near the Mower and Tractor.
● Do Not drive into burning debris or freshly burned areas.
● Ensure belts are properly adjusted to prevent excessive slippage and over heating.
● Never allow clippings or debris to collect near drivelines, under shielding around belts and pulleys, and gearboxes.
● Periodically shut down the Tractor and Mower and clean clippings and collected debris from the mower deck.
(SGM-12)
Do not let the Blades turn when the Mower Deck is raised for any reason, including
clearance or for turning. Raising the Mower deck exposes the Cutting Blades
which creates a potentially serious hazard and could cause serious injury or even
death from objects thrown from the Blades. (SRM-07)
Stay alert and watch for trees, low hanging limbs, power lines, and other overhead obstacles and
solid ground objects while you are operating. Use care to avoid hitting these items.
When mowing across uneven areas such as road shoulders, ditch edges, and other uneven ter-
rain, position mower so that one support wheel is near the highest point to prevent blades from
cutting into gravel or dirt which can cause rapid blade wear and extremely severe shock loads on the drivetrain resulting
in rapid wear or damage to these components. Blades contacting the ground may cause objects to be thrown out from
under the mower deck. Always avoid operating the mower at a height or position which may cause the blades to
contact the ground. Cutting into the berm or edge of the ditch will cause abnormal and accelerated blade wear and
possible blade component failure.
