OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This mower was designed to CUT PASTURE GRASS AND ROUGH AREAS UP TO 1" IN
DIAMETER.. Use of your rotary mower to cut any material larger than 1" in diameter may
damage the mower and void your warranty.

PRE-OPERATIONAL ADJUSTMENTS

Set tractor's lIft control stop at a position that will prevent the PTO shaft from coming in contact
with the front edge fo the mower when it is at full lift. Consult your tractor manual for instructions.

CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

To prevent mower blades from striking the ground or hidden objects, your mower should be
set to the highest position that will give the desired cutting height. By setting your mower up
this way you reduce blade wear and stress to the mower. Mowing at regular intervals will yeild
far better results than periodic mowings (i.e. less wind rowing). To adjust cutting heights follow
these steps.

STEP 1
Raise rotary mower off the ground with the tractor and SECURELY BLOCK IN POSITION.
Remove 5/8" bolt from adjusting bracket. (See Figure K)

STEP 2
Move the A-frame tailwheel up or down to desired cutting height. Re-install 5/8" bolt and tighten
to secure in position. (See Figure L)
Note:
It may be necessary to loosen the A-frame tailwheel attachment bolts.
(See Figure D, page 9)
