Emptying the Catcher
1. Extend the grass catcher handle and rotate forward until
the grass catcher assembly is completely open at the
bottom (see Figure 7).
2. Empty the grass from the catcher.
3. Move the tractor forward a short distance. This will keep
the pile of grass from keeping the catcher from closing.
4. Rotate the grass catcher assembly back to the closed
position before mowing.
1. Return the ground speed control(s) to neutral.
2. Disengage the PTO and wait for all moving parts to stop.

SLOW position and turn the ignition key to OFF. Re-
move the key.

Cutting Height Adjustment
The mower lift lever ( A , Figure 8) is used to lower and raise
the deck to the desired cutting height. The cutting height is
adjustable between 2,5 cm (1,0”) and 8,9 cm (3,5”).
To lower the deck, pull back slightly on the mower lift lever,
push it to the left and slide it down. To raise the deck, pull
up on the mower lift lever and lock in notch to the right.
Attaching a Trailer
The maximum horizontal drawbar force allowed is 150
Newton. The maximum vertical drawbar force is 90 New-
ton. This equates to a 113 kg (250 lbs) trailer on a 10
degree hill. Secure the trailer with an appropriately sized
clevis pin (

).
