Now that you’re prepared and well briefed you may begin
cutting. Begin cutting by doing the following:
•
Reduce tractor’s engine rpm.
•
Make sure cutter wings are on the ground and
hydraulic lever is in the float position.
•
Engage power take-off, raise engine rpm to the
appropriate power take-off speed, and begin mowing.
Try increasing or decreasing ground speed to determine
the effect on quality of cut. With a little practice you will be
pleased with what you and your Land Pride 12' Folding
Rotary Cutter can do.
When you are done mowing, need to take a break, or just
need to make a few adjustments to the cutter, remember
to always do the following:
•
Reduce tractor’s engine rpm and disengage power
take-off.
•
Stop on level ground, place gear selector in park or set
park brake, turn off engine, remove switch key, and
stay on the tractor until cutter blades have come to a
complete stop.
