Engagement Check Procedure
1. With the driveline attached, raise and lower the cutter within its operating range. Position the mower at the
point where the telescoping driveline is at its maximum extension. Turn off the tractor and apply the parking
brake. Securely block the cutter at this height.
2. Mark the inner shield 1/8” from the end of the outer shield.
3. Disconnect the driveline from the tractor and separate the two driveline halves.
4. Measure the distance from the mark to the end of the inner profile. This length is the amount the driveline
profiles were engaged.
5. If the engaged length is less than 10”, the shaft is considered too short and should be replaced with a longer
shaft. Consult an authorized dealer to purchase the required driveline length.
8. PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION AND SERVICE
Before each use, a pre-operation inspection and service of the cutter and tractor must be performed. This includes
routine maintenance and scheduled lubrication, inspecting that all safety devices are equipped and functional, and
performing needed repairs. Do not operate the cutter and tractor if the pre-operation inspection reveals any
condition affecting safe operation. Perform repairs and replacement of damaged and missing parts as soon as
noticed. By performing a thorough pre-operation inspection and service, valuable down time and repair cost can be
avoided
.
DANGER!
Always disconnect the main PTO Driveline from the Tractor before performing service
on the Mower. Never work on the Mower with the Tractor PTO driveline connected
and running. Blades or Drivelines could turn without warning and cause immediate
entanglement, injury or death.
(SRM-3)
NOTE: When raising the cutter, at least 1” clearance must be maintained between the driveline and
the cutter deck. If necessary, place an upper lift stop on the 3-point hitch control lever to limit the height
the cutter can be raised.
Never work under the Mower, the framework, or any lifted component
unless the Mower is securely supported or blocked up to prevent
sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause serious injury or
even death.
