TOW-BEHIND FIELD and BRUSH MOWER
Offset Mowing
The Tow Bar allows you to offset the cutting path of the DR TOW-BEHIND FIELD and BRUSH MOWER up to 46" from the center
of the Tow Vehicle. The provided offset positions are “No Offset” (in line with Tow Vehicle), “Middle Offset” (27-1/2" from center
of Tow Vehicle) or “Full Offset” (46" from the center of the Tow Vehicle). Offset mowing allows you to mow closer to equipment,
trees, and fences while the Tow Vehicle stays at a safer distance. It also allows you to drive in an area already cut and not through
grass and brush that hasn’t been cut yet.
See the section “Configuring the Tow Bar Offset Direction” on the next page to allow offsetting the Mower to the left side of the
Tow Vehicle.
Offsetting the Tow Bar:
1. Remove the Hair Pin, Washer, and Clevis Pin that secures the Tow Bar in the
Offset Bracket (Figure 21).
2. Rotate the Tow bar to the Desired Offset (No Offset, Middle Offset, or Full
Offset).
3. Reinstall the Clevis Pin, Washer, and Hair Pin to Lock the Tow Bar in Place.
Offsetting the Tow Bar Extension:
1. Remove the Hair Pin, Washer, and Clevis Pin that secures the Tow Bar
Extension to the Tow Bar (Figure 22).
2. Rotate the Tow bar Extension so that the Offset angle is the same as at the
Offset Bracket (No Offset, Middle Offset, or Full Offset).
3. Reinstall the Clevis Pin, Washer, and Hair Pin to Lock the Tow Bar Extension
in Place.

When performing offset mowing, always be sure that the Tow Bar offset and the Tow Bar Extension offset match (Figure 20). This
ensures the DR TOW-BEHIND FIELD and BRUSH MOWER will track parallel to the tow vehicle path.
Always install the Clevis Pins from the bottom with the Washers and Hair Pins
on top to prevent the Hair Pin from being pulled out by tall grass or bushes.
