Before engaging the tractor PTO, make sure the tractor PTO speed is set as required for the mow-
er (540 rpm). Do not over speed PTO or machine breakage may result.
Do not operate the mower if the driveshaft is damaged. The driveshaft could be subject to break-
age during operation, causing serious injury or death. Remove the driveshaft and replace it with
an undamaged.
With mower disconnected from tractor, rest the driveline on the provided support of the mower.
3.3. OPERATING SAFETY INSTRUCTION
Before using the machine, be sure to have cleared the operating area from obstacles (stones,
branches, debris, etc...). Mark all the obstacles that cannot be eliminated (e.g. by means
flags).
Never engage the tractor PTO in the presence of people close to the driveshaft. The body, hair or
clothing of a person can get caught in rotating parts, causing serious injury or death.
Before engaging the PTO and during all operations, make sure that no person or animal is in
immediate area of action of the machine. Never use the mower if people are in his working ar-
ea.
It's absolutely forbidden to stand near the mower with moving parts.
The operator must operate mower lifting/lowering only from the driving seat of the tractor. Do not
perform lifting maneuvers on side or behind the tractor.
The presence of steep slopes may cause instability to the system tractor and mower, with risk of
tipping and consequent serious injury or death hazard. Consult the manual for the tractor to de-
termine the maximum slope that the tractor is able to deal with.
Never engage the PTO until the mower is in the down position and resting on the ground. Never
raise the mower until all blades have come to a complete stop. The machine might throw objects
at high speed, causing serious injury or death.
Never leave the driver's seat when the tractor is turned on. Before leaving the tractor, lower the
mower to the ground, disengage the PTO, insert the parking brake, stop engine and remove the
key from the control panel.
