•
Perform scheduled maintenance. Check for loose
hardware, missing parts, broken parts, structural cracks,
and excessive wear. Make repairs before putting the
implement back into service.
•
Always disengage power take-off before lifting cutter fully
up. Never operate cutter in the raised position. The cutter
can discharge objects at high speeds.
•
A rotating driveline must not exceed an angle of 25 degrees
up or down, and never engage a driveline while at an angle
exceeding 25 degrees up or down. The driveline can break
and send projectiles.
•
Do not use implement as a man lift, work platform or as a
wagon to carry objects. It is not properly designed or
guarded for this use.
•
Do not exceed rated cutting capacity of your cutter. See
specifications & capacities for specified cutting capacity.
Exceeding rated cutting capacity can damage drive
components, cutter blades, and deck components.
•
Buildup of debris around moving components and
gearboxes is a fire hazard. Keep rotating parts and
gearboxes free from debris to avoid serious injury and
property damage.
•
Improper oil level can cause bearing failure and be a fire
hazard. Maintain proper gearbox oil level to avoid serious
injury and property damage.
•
Do not operate a broken or bent driveline. Such a driveline
will break apart while rotating at high speeds and can cause
serious injury or death. Always remove the implement from
use until the damaged driveline can be repaired or replaced.
•
Some tractors are equipped with two power take-off speeds.
Be certain your tractor’s power take-off shaft is set-up to
operate at 540 rpm. Do not exceed 540 rpm power take-off
speed or equipment breakage may result.
Inspection of Tractor & Cutter
Make the following inspections with cutter attached to a
tractor, power take-off disengaged, and all moving
components completely stopped:
1. Park tractor and cutter on a level surface.
2. Disengage power take-off, place gear selector in
park, set park brake, shut tractor off, and remove
switch key. Make sure cutter blades have come to a
complete stop before dismounting from tractor.
3. Inspect tractor safety equipment to make sure it is
installed and in good working condition.
4. Inspect cutter safety equipment to make sure it is
installed and in good working condition.
5. Check driveline to make certain it is securely
connected to the tractor power take-off shaft and
cutter gearbox shaft. Also, make certain that the
guards are in good working condition and in place.
6. Carefully raise and lower implement to ensure that
the drawbar, tires, and other equipment on the tractor
do not contact cutter frame or driveline.
7. Check all hoses and wires to be sure that they will not
come in contact with rotating driveline.
8. With cutter resting on solid supports, power take-off
disengaged, and blade rotation completely stopped:
•
Check for and remove foreign objects wrapped
around blade spindles.
•
Check for nicked, bent, broken, and worn cutting
blades. Replace or sharpen blades as required.
Refer to
“Cutter Blade Maintenance” on page 36.
9. Inspect Hydraulic hoses for wear, damage, and
hydraulic leaks. See
“Avoid High Pressure Fluids
Hazard” on page 3. Replace damaged and worn
hoses with genuine Land Pride parts.
10. Remove solid supports from under the deck.
11. Verify cutter height is set correctly. See
“Pull-Type
Leveling & Cutting Height” on page 26 or “3-Point
Leveling & Cutting Height”
on page 27
The remaining inspections are made by engaging the
power take-off to check for normal operation.
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Stop power take-off immediately if vibration continues after
a few revolutions during start-up and anytime thereafter.
Wait for all components to come to a complete stop before
dismounting from tractor to check for probable causes.
Make necessary repairs and adjustments before continuing.
•
Some tractors are equipped with two power take-off speeds.
Be certain your tractor’s power take-off is set-up to operate
at the implement’s rated power take-off speed or equipment
breakage may result. RC models are rated for 540 rpm and
RCM models are rated for 1000 rpm.
12. Start tractor, set throttle to idle or slightly above idle,
and slowly engage power take-off. Initial start-up
vibration is normal and should stop after a few
revolutions. Stop power take-off rotation immediately
if vibration continues.
13. Once cutter is running smoothly, slowly increase
tractor power take-off speed to 540 rpm. Stop power
take-off rotation immediately if vibration occurs.
14. Investigate cause of vibration and make repairs
before putting cutter back into service.
