HITCHING MOWER TO TRACTOR
:
NOTICE -
Attach mower to drawbar only.
Drawbar should be adjusted so it is 14” to 15” from the centerline of the
draw-pin hole to end of PTO shaft. This is critical for proper PTO shaft
operation.
Adjust hitch or drawbar so mower frame (Item #30, Page 8) is at the most
level position in relation with the ground. This will ensure proper flotation
of the wing decks.
CAUTION
- Safety chain must always be attached to towing
vehicle.
CAUTION
- When towing mower on any roadways, lock
brakes together. Use proper lighting and marking devices
according to the local regulations.
NOTE: If the three-point hitch is attached to tractor, be sure it will not
contact any part of the mower when making sharp turns. Mount the hose
support bracket so the large access hole is directly over the grease fitting on
the hanger bearing. The hose support rod may have to be bent back slightly
to clear the three point hitch arms.
