Operation
– Never allow children to operate the machine.
– Do Not carry children, even with the blades
shut off. Children could fall off and be
seriously injured or interfere with the safe
operation of the machine. Children that have
been given rides in the past could suddenly
appear in the working area for another ride and
be run over or backed over by the machine.
Mowing
1.
The UltraVac blower operates when the PTO
is engaged. Be sure that all persons are clear
of the mower deck before engaging the cutting
blades. Set the throttle to “midway” position. Pull
outward on the PTO switch to the “ROTATE”
position. Accelerate to full throttle to begin
mowing.
2.
To disengage the PTO, set the throttle to
“midway” position. Push in on the PTO switch
to the “STOP” position to stop the cutting blades
and blower. The cutting blades will require a
slightly longer amount of time to come to a
complete stop when the blower is installed on
the deck. Verify that all rotation indicators have
stopped before clearing blower assembly or
mower deck.
3.
To remove the bags, first disengage the PTO, stop
the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
Open the hopper and remove the bags by lifting
up on the rear of the bag, then unhooking the
front clip. Empty the bags by inverting them.
4.
Reinstall bags, close and latch hopper before
continuing mowing.
Tips for mowing conditions:
•
When mowing in areas with sandy soil, use
low lift blades on the cutting deck and higher
cutting heights to minimize wear on the blower
components.
•
When mowing in wet conditions, such as just after
a rain or in heavy dew, use low lift blades on the
cutting deck to minimize plugging of the blower.
•
Maintaining a ground speed that does not pull
down the engine RPM will allow for the highest
productivity and best quality of cut. Bogging the
engine RPM down by going too fast will cause
plugging and quality of cut issues.
•
When the UltraVac gets full, the sound of
the blower will change and there will be slight
blowout from the front right corner of the deck.
Emptying the UltraVac at this point will minimize
the potential for the tube to plug.
Collection System Removal for Side
Discharge
1.
Empty the hopper.
CAUTION
The hopper assembly is heavy when it is full,
which may make it difficult to remove the
hopper assembly from the unit. The entire
hopper assembly may fall, which may cause
injury.
Prior to removing the hopper assembly from
the unit, first empty the contents.
2.
Disengage the PTO, stop engine and wait for all
moving parts to stop. Remove key and engage
parking brake.
3.
Remove the discharge tube by releasing the latches
at the blower. Slide the tube off the blower outlet
and remove the upper end from the hopper.
