6. Product Description.
Trimax Snake mowers are specifically designed to suit modern compact tractors in the 26-56kW (35-
75hp) range and are ideal machines for undulating terrain such as golf roughs. Innovative engineering
delivers outstanding finish coupled with impressive versatility, high productivity, low running costs and
longevity.
The mower has a cutting width of 3.23 metres (127”) or 3.99 metres (157”). It consists of three
separate roller mower decks attached to a central chassis and towed by a tractor. Trimax Snake
mowers combine efficient wide-area mowing with excellent contour following and outstanding
manoeuvrability.
The chassis connects to the tractor drawbar and has its own transport wheels. Each mower deck
attaches to the chassis via an outrigger and is free to articulate in six directions. Outriggers are
equipped with hydraulic rams to lift the mower decks which automatically lock into the transport
position for safe transportation between sites on public roads.
Each mowing deck is a multi-spindled rotary mower with full-width rollers front and rear. The rollers
enable accurate contour following and allow the mower decks to cross concrete pathways or mow
along the edges of banks or bunkers. They also contain debris within the cutting chamber for
unmatched safety. Fitted with Trimax’s exclusive LazerBladez
TM
these technically advanced decks can
mow at high ground speeds whilst producing a cut and finish to equal cylinder mowers and offering the
ability to cut rampant spring growth.
Drive for the mower decks is provided by the tractor power take-off which is connected via a driveshaft
to a 4-way gearbox on the chassis. Secondary driveshafts connect to individual deck gearboxes where
shock-absorbing belts distribute power to the blade spindles.
Please read this operator’s manual before operating the machine or carrying out adjustments or
maintenance. It explains how to operate the machine safely and how to configure it for maximum
performance in the field.
If you follow the operating instructions and maintenance programme your Trimax Snake mower will
provide many years of productive, trouble-free service.
