Recommended Practices for a Quality Cut
1. Use the Correct Tractor PTO Speed for
the Mower.
"
Check the PTO speed decal on the
hitch of the mower.
2. Cut in the primary cutting conditions that
the mower is configured for. (See above)
"
The rotation of the blades and the
wing height adjustment will influence
the quality of cut in the cutting area.
(See Section 3 and 4).
3. Verify the Blades Are Mounted for the
Primary Cutting Conditions.
"
Check the rotation decals on the top of
the center and wing decks.
"
Mount the blade so that when the bent
end of the blade is up toward the
underside of the deck, the leading
edge of the blade turns into the
rotation as indicated on the decal.
4. Check that the Blades Are in Good
Condition.
"
Replace blade pair at maximum of 50
hours.
"
Worn, bent or gouged blades will
cause uneven cutting height.
"
Replace with new Highline blades.
5. Reduce the Travel Speed.
"
In tall, wet or dense vegetation,
reduce the travel speed to handle the
higher volume of material in the
cutting chamber.
"
This will reduce “uncut tracks.”
-
The mower wheels may bend over
the stalks of the vegetation and
debris may be distributed on top of
the bent over stalks.
- Reduce travel speed to allow more
time for the stalks to lift and to
allow more blade passes over the
vegetation.
6. Set the Cutting Height According to the
Vegetation Being Cut.
"
Lower the height for short, dry or
sparse vegetation, but avoid hitting the
ground.
"
Raise the height in tall, lush or dense
vegetation. Reduce the travel speed to
allow the cutting chamber to handle
the high volume of material.
7. Check That the Clutches Will Slip.
"
Inspect the clutches to ensure there is
a gap between the tabs of the
pressure plate and the clutch housing.
-
If the tabs are against the housing,
replace the friction discs in the
clutch. (Refer to the Maintenance
Section for procedures)
