BEGINNING WORK
After completing all safety controls, and being sure the machine is set out parallel to terrain (see
fig. 1), to avoid damage start as follows:
• Raise the machine off the ground in order to let the knives start moving without touching
ground.
•
Maintaining the machine raised, engage the tractor PTO at suggested engine RPM.
•
Start moving the tractor forward and then gradually lower the machine.
Cutting tips
Proper ground speed for cutting will depend upon the height, type and density of the grass to be
cut. However we suggest not to exceed 7 Km/h. Lower ground speed allows tall and dense grass
cutting. Taking a partial cut and/or reversing the direction of travel may also produce a cleaner
cut. Remember, sharp knives produce cleaner cuts and require less power.
To avoid damage to frame and gearbox as a consequence of im-
pact of the knives with soil or solid objects, it is advisable not
to carry out very low cuts.
