PROPER USE 

 
a) mower without conditioner 
SaMASZ rear disc mower is designed for mowing standing grass on meadows and in stone free fields. 
It  is  a  machine  for  hay  and  green  fodder  production.  When  the  high  grass  prevails,  the  first  and  the 
second cut should be mowed at the height level - 6-7 cm, but when the grass grows low – at the height 
level - 5 cm. The last cut should be mowed a little bit higher – 7-8 cm above the ground. 

 
 

b) mower with tine/roller conditioner 
SaMASZ  rear  disc  mower  with  tine/roller  conditioner  is  designed  for  mowing  standing  grass  on 
meadows and in stone free fields. It particularly concerns mowers with roller conditioner, because they 
tolerate stones only up to few centimeters. If a mower comes across a bigger stone, tractor-mower set 
must be stopped and the stone removed, because it may lead to serious damage. It is a machine for hay 
and  green  fodder  production.  Tine/roller  conditioner  provides  effective  conditioning  and  accelerates 
drying of the forage. Roller conditioner is recommended in case of fragile crops like lucerne (alfalfa). 
It reduces leaf loss to an absolute minimum. When the high grass prevails, the first and the second cut 
should be mowed at the height level - 6-7 cm, but when the grass grows low – at the height level - 5 
cm. The last cut should be mowed a little bit higher – 7-8 cm above the ground. 
 

CAUTION: 

Use of the mower for other purposes than the above mentioned  

is  forbidden.  Different  use  than  the  above  mentioned  will  be  considered 
as improper and may lead to revoking of the warranty. Mower should be 
used, operated and repaired only by people familiarized with  its detailed 
specifications  and  with  safety  rules  and  regulations.  Willful  changes  of 
the mower will lead to revoking of the warranty.
