Fig. 9. Proper pin locking during the mower mounting
After the mower has been attached to tractor, check the balance and steerability of tractor-mower
set. To do this, calculate to formulas given in the appendix or weigh the set, and then drive on the scales
only with front axis of the tractor (the mower must be in transport position – lifted upwards). If the
pressure on the front axis is at least 20 % of the whole set’s pressure, it means the set is stable. If not,
the front axis should be balanced.
WARNING!
When the mower is connected the pin should be in the bush 2 on the middle bar.
Before disconnecting the mower put the pin 1 into the hole 3 in the bar (Fig. 10)
to secure the linkage against falling.

5.2. Mounting PTO shaft
PTO shaft’s end with overrunning clutch should be mounted on mower’s side.
When connecting PTO shaft between tractor and mower make sure, that external guard tube of
the shaft is on the tracor’s side. The PTO shaft plastic guards have to be secured by fastening their
small chains to immovable parts of tractor and mower.
WARNING!
If need be, shorten the PTO haft according to its operator’s manual given by the
shaft’s manufacturer (Fig. 11).
