ENGAGING THE MOWER
When engaging the mower, it is important to follow this procedure:
1) Lower the decks into the working position.
2) Raise decks to Pro Lift-N-Turn
TM
position (Page 29).
3) Set the tractor engine speed at 1000 rpm maximum.
4) Ensure that everyone is clear of the mower.
5) Engage the tractor PTO clutch.
6) Lower the decks into the working position and place tractor
hydraulics in float position.
7) Select the proper ground speed gear and slowly engage the tractor
ground drive.
8) Once the mower has come up to speed, slowly increase the tractor
throttle to desired rpm.
MOWING
The TDR-26 mower is a very versatile cutting machine that allows the
operator to maintain turf on undulating terrain in a productive manner.
Drive safely, cut safely. Be sure to idle the tractor back before
engaging the PTO and shut the tractor off before leaving the tractor.
NOTE: Under normal cutting conditions, it may be desirable to
operate the tractor at less than 540 rpm PTO speed, reducing
fuel consumption and the noise level. Select a suitable
ground speed gear to maintain proper cutting
.
OPERATING ON HILLY TERRAIN
When operating on hilly terrain, proceed with caution and drive
carefully. If the tractor has four-wheel drive, make sure it is engaged.
On two-wheel drive tractors equipped with a differential lock, apply
while driving straight on the hill, disengage to allow for normal turning.
Use care while turning on hillsides in wet conditions. The weight of
the mower behind the tractor may push the tractor unexpectedly.
PRO LIFT-N-TURN TM OPERATION
The industry exclusive Pro Lift-N-
Turn™ system found on the TDR-26
mower offers a real productivity advantage and it is a feature not
offered on competitive mowers.
The Pro Lift-N-
Turn™ system allows for the decks to be raised slightly
off the ground with the PTO still engaged. This makes turns at the end
of the pass easier and less stressful on both the turf and the
equipment.
The function of this system is integrated in the deck safety lock system.
As you approach a turn, raise the decks using the tractor hydraulic
control (do not pull rope). A mechanical stop in the deck lock will limit
the height of the deck rise. When the turn is complete, lower the decks
to the mowing position, and engage the float for the hydraulic port in
use.
