operation, remain in the tractor cab. Do not make contact with the ground of
objects outside the machine. Do not leave the cab until the storm has passed.
 Never walk, stand, or place yourself or others under a raised wing or in the
path of a lowering wing. Hydraulic system leak-down, hydraulic system failures,
mechanical failures, or movement of control levers can cause wings to drop
unexpectedly and cause severe injury or death.
 Full chain shielding must be installed at all times. Thrown objects could
injure people or damage property.
•
If the machine is not equipped with full chain shielding, operation
must be stopped.
•
This shielding is designed to reduce the risk of thrown objects. The
mower deck and protective devices cannot prevent all objects from escap-
ing the blade enclosure in every mowing condition. It is possible for
objects to ricochet and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92m).
 Never direct discharge toward people, animals, or property.
 Do not operate or transport equipment while under the influence of alcohol
or drugs.
 Operate only in daylight or good artificial light.
 Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from equipment while engine is
running. Stay clear of all moving parts.
 Always comply with all state and local lighting and marking requirements.
 Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.
 Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab and seat belt.
Keep seat belt securely fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death from
being run over or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS system in “locked up” position
at all times.
 Always sit in power unit seat when operating controls or starting engine.
Securely fasten seat belt, place transmission in neutral, engage brake, and
ensure all other controls are disengaged before starting power unit engine.
 Operate tractor PTO at 540 RPM (1000 RPM on Q Series cutters). Do not
exceed.
 Look down and to the rear and make sure area is clear before operating in
reverse.
 Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.
 Do not stop, start, or change directions suddenly on slopes.
 Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during operation.
 Do not handle blades with bare hands. Careless or improper handling may
result in serious injury.
 Never go underneath equipment (lowered to the ground or raised) unless
it is properly blocked and secured. Never place any part of the body under-
neath equipment or between movable parts even when the engine has been
turned off. Hydraulic system leak down, hydraulic system failures, mechanical
failures, or movement of control levers can cause equipment to drop or rotate
unexpectedly and cause severe injury or death. Follow Operator's Manual
instructions for working underneath and blocking requirements or have work
done by a qualified dealer.

Keep all persons away from operator control area while performing adjust-
ments, service, or maintenance.
 Do not modify or alter or permit anyone else to modify or alter the equip-
ment or any of its components in any way.
 To prevent contamination during maintenance and storage, clean and then
cover hose ends, fittings, and hydraulic ports with tape.
 Do not allow bystanders in the area when operating, attaching, removing,
assembling, or servicing equipment.
 Make certain all movement of equipment components has stopped before
approaching for service.
 Frequently check blades. They should be sharp, free of nicks and cracks,
and securely fastened.
 Your dealer can supply genuine replacement blades. Substitute blades
may not meet original equipment specifications and may be dangerous.
 Tighten all bolts, nuts, and screws to torque chart specifications. Check
that all cotter pins are installed securely to ensure equipment is in a safe condi-
tion before putting unit into service.
 Make sure all safety decals are installed. Replace if damaged, missing, or
illegible. (See Safety Decals section for location.)
 Make sure shields and guards are properly installed and in good condition.
Replace if damaged.
MAINTENANCE
 Stop power unit and equipment immediately upon striking an obstruction.
Turn off engine, set parking brake, remove key, inspect, and repair any damage
before resuming operation.
 Your dealer can supply original equipment hydraulic accessories and
repair parts. Substitute parts may not meet original equipment specifications
and may be dangerous.
 Raise or lower wings slowly to prevent personal injury or damage to cutter.
 Continuous operation while the clutch is slipping could cause heat build-up
resulting in fire. Adjust slip clutch pressure by tightening springs to the dimen-
sion shown in the “Owner Service” section. If clutch is set to minimum spring
length, replace the friction disks as shown.
 Before dismounting power unit or performing any service or maintenance,
follow these steps: disengage power to equipment, lower the 3-point hitch and
all raised components to the ground, operate valve levers to release any
hydraulic pressure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove key, and unfasten
seat belt.
 Before cleaning, servicing, adjusting, repairing or unplugging, stop tractor
engine, place all controls in neutral, set park brake, remove ignition key, and
wait for all moving parts to stop.
 Never perform cleaning, servicing, or maintenance with engine running.
 Do not disconnect hydraulic lines until machine is securely blocked or
placed in lowest position and system pressure is released by operating valve
levers.
 Service and maintenance work not covered in OWNER SERVICE must be
done by a qualified dealership. Special skills, tools, and safety procedures may
be required. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious injury or
death.
 Explosive separation of tire and rim parts can cause serious injury or
death. Release all air pressure before loosening bolts on wheel.
STORAGE
 Before disconnecting and storing, follow these instructions:
•
Store on level, solid ground.
• Disconnect driveline and secure up off the ground.
• Lower wings to ground.
• Raise cutter center section and pin transport bar in raised position.
• Attach parking jack and raise tongue weight off tractor drawbar.
• Place wedge blocks at front and rear of wheels on center section and
each wing to prevent wheel rotation.
•
Securely block all four corners of center section and each wing with
jackstands.
• Remove hydraulic hoses after tractor is turned off and all system
pressure is released by operating valve levers several times.
• Remove safety tow chain.
• Remove retainer pin and high strength drawbar pin.
 Keep children and bystanders away from storage area.
