NOTICE:
Before sale SaMASZ protects the cylinders with special grease against weather which
may cause premature wear. Before operating the mower, remove the excess grease
from the cylinders.
Engaging mower’s drive should be performed once cutter bar is placed on the ground. The
following should be performed in workplace and as mower is in working position:
❑ Connect PTO shaft extension onto tractor's spline shaft (unless only one extension was taken out)
or connect the complete PTO shaft,
❑ Optimal angle of cutter bar in relation to the ground should be between 2° and 3°. This angle is
result of tightening or extending the link,
❑ Slowly engage the mower's PTO shaft drive up until cutting discs reach their nominal rotating speed.
The value of rpm should be adjusted to height, density and species of grass.
❑ Engage proper tractor gear and drive slowly into the grass-field. Even meadows can be mowed at
any driving speed, but more than 8 km/h, however as unevenness occurs the speed should be
reduced.
IMPORTANT:
If the pressure supporting the assembly of the cutter bars is too high, the cutter bars
will not be able to lowered.
