3. With the hitch installed, drive the ATV/UTV behind the mower and secure the hitch
using the Ø19 pin and Ø4 cotter pin.
4. Loosen the spring loaded nuts to set all four wheels on the mower to have a little
room to pivot, this will allow the mower to turn in the direction that the ATV/UTV is
turning (see fig. 9). If you loosen the nuts excessively, the mower will have a
tendency to swing side to side. If on the other hand you tighten the spring loaded
nuts excessively, the wheels will not turn properly in the direction that the ATV/UTV
is turning.
CAUTION: Towing vehicle front end stability is necessary for safe operation when
pulling equipment.
CAUTION: Always ensure that the towing vehicle’s tire pressure is correct
according to the vehicle’s operator’s manual.
DANGER: Failure to ensure a secure hitching of the implement to the towing
vehicle can cause serious injury or death.
3.07 - Offsetting the Mower
The hitch on the C30-CE5H allows for the mower to be set up to be offset up to 75” to
the left or right side of the tractor. In certain cases, operators like to offset the mower
because it allows them to increase the mowing width of their belly mounted mower. In
other cases, offsetting the mower allows the operator to safely mow closer to obstacles
(for example, near the edge of a pond or under trees).
