OPERATION
Only people who understand the safety information and instructions in this manual may op-
erate the equipment. Be alert and careful when working with the machine and only use the
equipment or product in the manner described in this manual. When working with equipment
that has moving parts, there is always the risk of injury. Be careful when working with equip-
ment equipped with hydraulic hoses ,oil under pressure can penetrate the skin. Seek medical
attention immediately if this occurs.
Always work alone with the equipments that are defined
as single purpose equipment. Never overload the implement. Respect the equipment’s dan-
ger zone.
Connecting the machine
* Attach the machine onto the tractor’s rear three point.
* Connect the PTO shaft. Anchor the chain well.
* Connect hydraulic hoses to the tractor’s double- acting hydraulic outlet
* Ready for use.
CUTTING
* Check the area to be cut and remove objects and trash that can be caught and thrown
away by the blades.
* The amount of grass to be cut determines the speed forward; Low speed usually gives the
best results. It is best to cut grass when dry. Cutting wet grass can cause clogging, which
leads to grass lumps behind the cutting unit. When cutting very high grass, raise the cutting
level and cut the same surface twice - the second time with lower cutting level, allow at least
24 hours between first and second cutting to allow the grass to dry out.
* Lower the cutting unit on the ground. Connect the PTO shaft so that the blades start to
rotate.
Check clamp sleeve for the pulley. The bolts should be
tightened at regular intervals.Tighten and check the
belt tension if necessary.
