10. Remove parking jack (#3) from hitch and attach it to
the left-hand wing deck storage base with attachment
pin (#8). Make sure the base is level with or lower
than the head especially after the wings are folded
up. See cover picture for correct positioning.

chain length to remove all slack except what is
necessary to permit turning. Lock chain hook
securely to the safety chain.
Hydraulic Hook-up
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Hydraulic fluid under high pressure can penetrate the skin
and/or eyes causing a serious injury. Wear protective gloves
and safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic
systems. Use a piece of cardboard or wood rather than hands
when searching for leaks. A doctor familiar with this type of
injury must treat the injury within a few hours or gangrene
may result. DO NOT DELAY.
Refer to Figure 1-4:
1. Make sure spring support loop (#7) is securely
fastened to the hitch frame and fastener hardware is
properly tightened.
2. Route wing folding hose (#10) through hose support
loop (#7) and connect to the tractor’s duplex outlet. If
tractor has float option, connect this hose to that
outlet. See
“Cutting on Uneven Terrain” on page 24
for additional information regarding the float option.
3. Route center deck lift hose (#11) through spring hose
support loop (#7) and connect to a different duplex
outlet at the tractor.
Unfold Wings
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not stand between transport tires and wing deck or be in
an area where the wings can pinch or fall on you while
removing shipping bar and cylinder transport locks. Make
sure no one else is in the area where they can become pinched
or crushed by unfolding wings. The wings can drop suddenly
causing serious bodily injury or death.
Refer to Figure 1-5 on page 15:
1. Park tractor and cutter on a level surface where the
wings can safely be lowered to ground level.
2. Using tractor control lever, fully retract wing folding
cylinders.
3. Shut tractor down properly before dismounting. Refer
to “Tractor Shutdown” above.
IMPORTANT: Protect park jack by storing it on the
left wing deck before moving the cutter. Make sure
jack is stored with its base level or lower than the
head to prevent water and freeze damage.
