5. Remove mounting bracket and
fit in position "B".
• Secure mounting bracket with
spring clip (F).
6. Lower hydraulically (FL).
7. Check
• Raise mechanism laterally, approx. 50 kg
• Raise mechanism at front, tipping towards the rear must be
easily possible.
Problems which may arise during
operation and their correction

Adjustment of the damped steering
mechanism (DSM)
1. Fit the mechanism to the towing vehicle (see pages 4, 5).
2. Carry out adjustment of the damped steering mechanism on an a
level surface (FL).
• Unhook both balance springs.
• The bracket must be set in position
"A".
• Adjust length (L) by rotating the
spindle.
• Set the damped steering
mechanism at the towing vehicle
and the quick-release coupling (Weiste triangle).
3. Raise the mechanism hydraulically (H1).
4. Fit balance springs.
• The set distance should be 42 cm (see above).

Function of the damped steering mechanism
• The damped steering should be used when
operating on uneven terrain.
The advantages:
- the mower unit adapts especially well to suit the
terrain
- better mowing performance
- less loading and wear and tear on moving parts
Problem
• The mower unit digs into
the ground, the springing
on the DSM is too weak.
• Double cut, the springing
on the DSM is too strong.
Remedy
- Attach to hole higher up the
Weiste triangle.
- Readjust the length (L) (see
Points 2 - 7).
- Attach DSM to a hole down
the Weiste triangle.
- Readjust the length (L) (see
Points 2 - 7).
