5.6. Preparing the mower for work
WARNING!
During storing of the machines in company SaMASZ the cylinders are protected
by special grease in order to secure them against weather which may cause their
premature wear. Before starting the operation excess grease should be removed
from the cylinders.
Put the mower into motion when the cutterbar is on the ground so that oil can fill the whole
cutterbar. When the mower is in working position, please do the following:
❑ lower the cutterbar to the ground,
❑ connect PTO shaft between tractor and mower,
❑ by means of upper regulating bar of the mower, adjust the cutterbar’s height and inclination
towards the ground. Proper inclination of the cutterbar is between 0° and 5°. It is regulated by
extending or shortening the bar,
❑ slowly engage PTO clutch and wait until the cutting unit reaches its rated speed,
❑ engage tractor gear and drive slowly into the grass-field. Flat meadows can be mowed with any
speed. If the meadow is uneven reduce speed.
WARNING!
DO NOT pull the cutterbar in other way (towards the tractor), because it will lead
to cutterbar’s premature wear or even its damage.
