OPERATION
Weedoo Sickle Bar Mower Operation Section 3-4
LEARNING BOOM AND MOWER OPERATION
Start the motor and allow the engine to stabilize. Without starting the mower, practice positioning the boom and
mower. Remember, speed and skill will be attained easier if the necessary time is spent familiarizing yourself
with the machine and its operations. When you feel comfortable at controlling the position of the mower, return
the mower to the travel position, and transport the mower to the desired mowing location.
If mowing for the rst time, we recommend choosing a shore area relatively at with a minimum of sign posts,
guard rails, etc. As always, you should inspect the area for other objects that can cause potential hazards and
removing them before mowing.
VALVE CONTROLS
A control lever decal similar to the one shown below should be near the control valve to remind the operator of
the lever functions.
The main control valve on the Tiger Boom Mower has four sections with tapered spools, located near the driver’s
seat. The malfunction of a section of the valve does not necessitate the replacement of the entire “bank”, only the
faulty section. Each section of the valve controls a certain position of the boom or mower. Seated in the operator’s
seat, the controls from left to right are #1 - primary(main) boom, #2 – secondary boom, #3 – mower tilt, #4 – motor
on-o.
