■
Move slowly into material. Adjust tractor ground speed to provide a clean cut without lugging the
tractor engine. Proper ground speed will depend on the terrain and the material’s height, type, density,
and moisture content. The operator will be able to determine appropriate ground speeds for different
conditions. Normal ground speed ranges from between 2 and 5 mph.
■
Under certain conditions, the tractor tires may push the grass down. This can result in an uneven cut.
When this occurs, reduce your ground speed, but maintain the PTO at 540 RPM. Lowering your travel
speed will allow the grass more time to rebound.
STORAGE
WARNING
■
Disconnect cutter driveshaft and secure up off the ground. Raise cutter with 3-point hitch. Place
blocks under cutter skirt. Slowly lower the cutter onto the blocks. Disconnect the cutter from the
tractor 3-point hitch and carefully drive tractor away from cutter.
■
Before leaving the area, check to ensure the cutter is stable.
■
Keep children and bystanders away from the storage area.
