OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)
STARTING AND STOPPING MOWER
The power required for operating the mower is supplied via the tractor PTO. Refer to your tractor’s manual for
instructions on engaging and disengaging the PTO.
• Always disengage the PTO at low engine RPM.
• Operate the mower at 540 RPM PTO speed. Do not exceed 540 RPM PTO speed.
• In case of an emergency, you must learn how to stop the tractor and mower quickly.
Important: Stop cutter and tractor immediately upon striking an obstruction. Insect the mower and repair any
damage before resuming operation. Do not disengage PTO when the engine is at full RPM.
Always bring the tractor engine to idle speed before disengaging the PTO.
CUTTING SPEED
Proper ground speed for cutting will depend upon the height, type and density of the grass to be cut.
Normally, ground speed will range from 1.5 to 3 MPH. Tall dense grass should be cut at low speeds,
while thin medium height grass can be cut at faster ground speeds.
CUTTING TIPS
Always operate the PTO at the recommend RPM when cutting. This is necessary for correct blade speed,
which creates a clean and even grass cut. Under certain conditions the tractor tires may roll some grass blades
down and prevent them from being cut at the same height as the surrounding area. IF this occurs, reduce the
tractor ground speed, but maintain 540 RPM PTO speed. The lower ground speed will allow grasses to be at least
partially rebound and cut.
Taking partial cut and/or reversing the direction of travel may also produce a cleaner cut.
When people are passing by the area you are cutting, stop the cutting until the area has been cleared.
Although the mower is shielded to prevent objects from being thrown by the blades,
no shielding is 100% effective.
The mower operator has greater knowledge of the hazards created by the machine than people on the street.
Therefore, he must take every precaution possible when other people are around.
WARNING!
Avoid personal injury! When attempting to stop a tractor which does not have a live PTO, the momentum
created by the blades of a mower can cause the tractor to be pushed forward.
Do not operate this mower unless the tractor has a love or independent PTO.
To start operation, reduce engine speed and engage the tractor PTO. Before starting to cut,
gradually increase the engine speed to develop full PTO speed. Enter the area to be cut with the cutter
operating at PTO speed and if it becomes necessary to temporarily regulate engine speed during operation,
increase or decrease the speed gradually. To transport the mower, disengage the PTO and raise to full
transport height.
