precautions to take while driving with an attached implement. Ensure the tractor has the capacity to handle the
weight of the mower and the tractor operating controls are set for safe transport. To ensure safety while driving the
tractor with an attached mower, review the following.
DANGER!
Never run the Tractor engine in a closed building or without adequate ventilation.
The exhaust fumes can be hazardous to your health.

FRONT GAUGE WHEEL INTERFERENCE CHECK
Do not operate mower until this interference check
has been performed. If you change tractors, you must
perform the check for that mounting.
Raise mower with tractor hydraulics to maximum
height of tractor lift.
Pivot both front gauge wheels forward and check that
there is clearance between gauge wheels and tractor
tires.
If there is interference, you must move hitch pin to
extended position (See assembly section). Move
tractor tires inward to obtain clearance or lower mower
until clearance exists. Set 3-Point quadrant stop so
mower cannot be raised beyond set point.
