7.Joystick Controlled Mowers
NOTE: DO NOT operate mower head while boom mower is in the boom rest, or in the stored
position! Red “Mower Run” light indicates mower is “ON”.
The boom functions are controlled by an electronic joystick. The Joystick Master Switch enables the joystick
control for controlling the boom motion functions. This switch is to be in the “OFF” position when starting the
tractor and when boom is stowed for transporting the machine.
If the joystick control is not operating properly, turn the master switchto the “OFF” position.
Install the manual valve handle onto valve and operate the functions individually to stow boom.
After boom is stowed in rest, transport the unit to the maintenance facility and contact your
Tiger dealer for assistance.
DO NOT attempt to operate the valve manually for mowing operations!
Note: Pushing manual valve handles “out” or “away” from the tractor cab will bring the main
boom “up”, secondary boom “out”, roll deck “out”, and swivel boom “aft”. Pulling manual handles toward cab
will let main boom “down”, bring secondary boom “in”, roll deck “in”, and swivel boom “forward”.
