BFM-505, 506, 507 Finish Mower
Attaching the BFM Series Finish Mower
Carefully read this instruction manual and the manuals of the tractor and
PTO shaft manufacturer. All mowers are built to be attached to any tractor
equipped with a three-point lift of the correct category and with suitable
ball ends.
Before attaching the equipment to the tractor, make sure that the ground is
smooth and flat and that nobody is standing between the tractor and the
mower; slowly move the tractor towards the mower by aligning the tractor
lifter arms with the two mower coupling side pins; turn the engine off and
pull the brake.
It is possible to adjust the attachment position by releasing the pins, A
and modifying the position of the plates B.
Connect the tractor top link to the third upper point by removing the pin located between the two plates, inserting
the top link and securing it by means of the pin.
Adjust the top link so that the upper part of the frame is parallel to the ground. Block all the linking parts by means
of the sway chains or arms.
Make sure that the central unit axis (case/bevel gear pair) is parallel to the ground, thus minimizing the stresses on
the power take off and increasing the working life of the equipment.
Before installing the PTO shaft make sure that the RPM rating and the direction of rotation match those of the
tractor. Carefully read the PTO shaft and tractor instructions.
Furthermore, accurately read the instructions of the manufacturer of the PTO shaft and of the tractor. Before
starting any activity, make sure that the guards are installed on the power take off of the tractor and PTO shaft.
Make sure that they cover the PTO shaft throughout its length.
