10. DISCONNECTING THE MOWER FROM THE SKID STEER
Before disconnecting the mower, the auxiliary hydraulics must be disengaged and blade rotation at a complete
stop. Lower the mower to the ground. If the mower is not resting securely on the ground, block the mower up
securely before attempting to disconnect it from the skid steer hitch.
•
Completely shut down the mower and skid
steer and secure the skid steer in position by
applying the parking brake. Wait for all
movement to come to a complete stop before
exiting the skid steer. Never extend any part
of your body from the operator’s area to
operate latches or to disconnect hydraulic
lines or the height limiting safety chain.
• Disconnect the mower hydraulic lines from
the skid steer auxiliary hydraulic ports.
Connect mower couplers together to prevent
hydraulic line contamination.
• Remove the height limiting safety chain from
the front of the skid steer chassis.
• Pull the latching handles upward to release
the latch pins from the mower hitch tabs.
• Board the skid steer, fasten your seatbelt, and
start the engine. Tilt the mounting plate
forward and back away from the mower at the
same time. The mower should be released
from the skid steer at this point. OPS-SS-
