6.3 Setting Deck Pitch

Lower Horse Power - Better Fuel Efficiency

 

To  increase  fuel  efficiency  and  lower  horsepower

requirements  for  mower  operation,  the  mower

should  be  operated  with  the  deck  approximately

3/4"  LOWER  IN  THE  FRONT  THAN  THE  REAR.

Operating  the  mower  at  this  pitch  will  allow  the

mower to cut the grass only once and requires less

work from the tractor.

Increase Mulching

 

To increase mulching of the grass or crop material

during  mower  operation,  the  mower  should  be

operated with the deck approximately 3/4" HIGHER

IN THE FRONT THAN THE REAR.
Operating  the  mower  at  this  pitch  will  allow  the

mower  to  cut  the  grass  twice  and  can  result  in  a

more even cut and improved distribution of the cut

material.
IMPORTANT:

Adjust  the  leveling  rods  the  same  amount  and

maintain equal tension in the rods. Improper adjust

-

ment may cause rods  to  snap or bend.  Retighten

the jamnuts after the deck pitch has been set.

7.DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT

The driveline yoke and tractor PTO shaft must be

dirt free and greased for attachment.

To connect the mower driveline to the tractor PTO

output shaft, pull the driveline yoke collar back and

align  the  grooves  and  splines  of  the  yoke  with

those of the PTO shaft.  Push the driveline yoke

onto the PTO shaft, release the locking collar, and

position the yoke until the locking collar balls are

seated  onto  the  PTO  shaft.    Push  and  pull  the

driveline back and forth several times to ensure a

secure attachment.
