Note: For best results in heavier cutting conditions adjust the deck so the rear of the
mower is approximately 2" higher than the front. This method requires less horsepower
and ground speeds of approximately 3-5mph. If finer shredding results are desired,
adjust the deck to level or slightly lower in the rear. This method will keep foilage under the
deck longer resulting in finer pieces. The down side of this method is if it takes alot more
horsepower and very slow ground speed. This method is not reccommended unless a
PTO speed of 540 RPM can be maintained.
ROTARY MOWER OPERATION
STEP 1
Before each use perform the maintenance described in maintenance section. (page 22)
STEP2
Read, understand, and follow the information on safety training, preparation, starting and
stopping safety, operational safety, transport safety warning sections of this manual (pages
11 thru 16)
STEP 3
With tractor running, lower rotary mower into working position.
STEP 4
With the tractor at idle RPM, engage PTO and slowly advance throttle to 540 PTO RPM.
NOTE: Rotary mower designed to run at
540 PTO RPM
only.
STEP 5
Select a low gear for the tractor and begin to mow. Tractor ground speed is to be con-
trolled by gear selection only and not engine speed. Tractor ground speed should allow
rotary mower to maintain 540 PTO RPM and thus maximum blade tip speed.
NOTE: Do not allow the tractor engine or rotary mower to bog down or stall. This causes
undue wear and tear on the mower and tractor. If this continues to happen reduce ground
speed and raise cutting height of rotary mower until the
540 PTO RPM is able to be
maintained.
Never attempt to clean out a plugged discharge chute until the tractor has been
shut down and the mower blades have completely stopped.
STEP 6
After each use clean all debris from the top and bottom of the rotary mower. Replace any
missing or illegible safety decals. Inspect for any damaged or worn parts and replace
before next use. Store rotary mower in a dry environment.
