OPERATION
10.4 Transport Position
To raise mower wings, drive the unit to a level area
and retract the wing hydraulic cylinders. DO NOT
raise wings with the mower positioned on an
embankment or other inclined position to prevent
overturning the mower. After the wings are fully
raised, install transport lock braces to prevent wings
from inadvertently falling. NOTE: If the transport
lock braces can not be easily installed, lower the
mower wings and remove rod end of cylinder and
adjust the rod clevis in or out to match the transport
brace length.
The center of gravity is raised and the mower more
prone to tipping when the wings are in the raised
position. When transporting, only raise the center
section high enough to clear ground obstacles.
OPS-R-0016
10.5 Operating Position
To lower the wings, remove the transport lock
braces and secure braces on storage bracket. DO
NOT drive out transport brace pins. The wing
cylinder may need to be retracted to remove tension
for brace removal. After removing brace bars,
extend wing hydraulic cylinders and fully lower
wings.
The valves operating wing cylinders should be
placed in the float position while mowing to allow the
mower to follow the contour of uneven terrain and to
prevent the wings from creeping up. When
extending a wing over a ditch for mowing, place the
control valve lever detents in the center position.
This will give the mower more stability and prevent
the opposite wing from raising. DO NOT operate
the mower with the valves in the detent position for
extended periods of time to prevent deck frame
damage. OPS-R-0017
