The exhaust fumes can be hazardous to your health. (SG-23) Start tractor only when properly seated in the Tractor seat. Starting a tractor in gear can result in injury or death. Read the Tractor operators manual for proper starting instructions. (SG-13) 6. CONNECTING THE MOWER TO THE TRACTOR Use extreme caution when connecting the mower to the tractor. The mower should be securely resting at ground level or setting on blocks. Keep hands and feet from under the mower deck and clear of pinch points between the tractor hitch arms and mower pins. OPS-R-0001 OPERATION © 2009 Alamo Group Inc. OPERATION INTERSTATER 03/09 Operation Section 4-9 6.1 Connecting the Mower A-Frame to the Tractor 1. Make sure the tractor is equipped with the correct PTO shaft. Change shafts if needed. 2. Shorten or remove the tractor drawbar to avoid interference when raising and lowering the mower. 3. Board the tractor and start the engine. Position the tractor to the mower with the 3-point lift arms positioned between the respective set of mower A-frame lift lugs. Note: Set the 3-point lift control to “Position Control” so that the lift arms maintain a constant height when attaching the mower. See the tractor Operator’s Manual for correct settings when attaching 3-point equipment. 4. Turn off the tractor engine and dismount. 5. One lift arm at a time, align arm end hole between the set of A-frame lift lugs. Insert hitch pin through the lug and arm holes and insert retaining pin into hitch pin. 6. Walk around to opposite side and repeat procedure for remaining lift arm and hitch pin. 7. Extend or retract 3-point top link to align its end hole with the holes of the mower’s top link. Insert the top link hitch pin and insert retaining pin into hitch pin. 8. Adjust any lower link check chains, guide blocks, or sway blocks to prevent the mower from swaying side to side and possible contact with tractor rear tires. Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in park, and set the parking brake before you or anyone else attempts to connect or disconnect the Implement and Tractor hitches. (S3PT-15) 6.2 Safety Tow Chain If the mower is towed on a public roadway, a safety chain with tensile strength equal to or greater than the gross weight of the mower must be connected between the tractor and mower. This will help control the implement in the event the tongue becomes disconnected from the drawbar. Make sure the chain is attached to a secure location on the tractor and not to an intermediate support. After connecting both ends of the safety chain, drive the tractor to the right and left to check for proper chain length. Adjust length as necessary and allow only enough slack in the chain to make a maximum turn in both directions. When not in use, store the safety chain to protect it from mud or standing water by wrapping the chain around the tongue. Replace the safety chain if one ore more links or end fittings are broken, stretched or otherwise damaged or deformed. OPS-U-0039 OPERATION © 2009 Alamo Group Inc. OPERATION INTERSTATER 03/09 Operation Section 4-10 7. SETTING THE MOWER Properly setting the cutting height is essential for efficient and safe operation. A properly set mower will make a more uniform cut, distribute clippings more evenly, require minimal tractor work, and follow the contour of uneven terrain. NOTE: Avoid very low cutting heights, striking the ground with the blades gives the most damaging shock loads and will cause damage to the mower and drive. Blades contacting the ground may cause objects to be thrown out from under the mower deck. Always avoid operating the mower at a height which causes the blades to contact the ground. OPS-U- 0010 Never work under the Implement, the framework, or any lifted component unless the Implement is securely supported or blocked up to prevent sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause serious injury or even death. (SG-14) OPERATION © 2009 Alamo Group Inc. OPERATION INTERSTATER 03/09 Operation Section 4-11 7.1 Roller Height Adjustment 1. The mower’s cutting height is set by positioning the roller assembly for each mower section. Each section must be set at the same height to ensure an even cut across the entire width of the mower. 2. Place the tractor and mower on a level surface and completely lower the mower to the ground. 3. Shut down the tractor, place the transmission in park, and set the parking brake before dismounting. 4. One section at a time, place lifting device (scissors jack or hydraulic jack) under center of cutter housing. 5. Remove hex nuts, washers and carriage bolts from bracket at each end of roller. Make certain that roller bracket is free to move once the fasteners are removed. A stuck roller could drop unexpectedly and cause injury. 6. Use lifting device to reposition cutter housing to desired cutting height. Align bracket holes with cutter housing, then reinstall hardware. 7. Lower cutter housing to the ground and remove lifting device. 8. Set cut...
