    Why don't the mower decks follow contours on my Trimax Measuring Instruments?
    • L
      langsarahSep 8, 2025
      If the mower decks on your Trimax Measuring Instruments aren't following contours, ensure the auxiliary hydraulic valve is in the float position by using the correct auxiliary hydraulic circuit. If no float position is available, hold the hydraulic lever in the down position while the mower decks traverse dips.

    Why do the mower deck skids mark turf on my Trimax Measuring Instruments?
    • M
      Matthew HermanSep 10, 2025
      If the mower deck skids are marking the turf with your Trimax Measuring Instruments, it could be because the ground contours are too extreme for the mower. Try changing the mowing pattern to approach contours from a different angle. Also, check if the wear skids are too low and adjust them accordingly.

    Why do blades leave a scalloped pattern on the turf when using my Trimax SnakeS2 Measuring Instruments?
    • D
      Danielle LeachSep 12, 2025
      A scalloped pattern on the turf from your Trimax Measuring Instruments blades can be due to travel speed being too fast; select a lower gear and travel more slowly. It could also be caused by mower decks bouncing; consider fitting optional wear skids.

    • K
      Kara MannSep 13, 2025

    Why does the primary driveshaft CV joint break on my Trimax SnakeS2 Measuring Instruments?
    • J
      James YoungSep 15, 2025
      If the primary driveshaft CV joint breaks on your Trimax Measuring Instruments, it is likely because the driveshaft angle exceeds 80°. Limit turn angles, especially when reversing, to prevent this.
  • R

    Why is there a poor cut or spread on side decks only of my Trimax SnakeS2 Measuring Instruments?
    • P
      pattersontammySep 18, 2025
      If you're experiencing a poor cut or spread on the side decks only of your Trimax Measuring Instruments, the blades may be turning backwards. This can happen if the chassis gearbox is fitted incorrectly. Un-bolt the gearbox and rotate it 180 degrees to correct this.
