TRAINING SAFETY

Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by a single careless act of an operator.
In addition to the design and configuration of equipment, hazard control, and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, prudence, and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of equipment.
It is the operator’s responsibility to read and understand ALL Safety and Operating instructions in the manual and to follow them. Accidents CAN be avoided.
Working with unfamiliar equipment can lead to careless injuries. Read this manual and the manual for your tractor before assembling or operating your mower, to acquaint yourself with the machines. It is the finish mower owner’s responsibility if this machine is used by any person other than yourself, to make certain that the operator, before operating:

1. Reads and understands the operator’s manuals.
2. Is instructed in safe and proper use.

Know the controls and how to stop tractor, engine, and mower quickly in an emergency.
Read this manual and the one provided with your tractor.
Train all new personnel and review instructions frequently with existing workers. A person who has not read and understood all operating and safety instructions is not qualified to operate the machine, An untrained operator exposes himself and bystanders to possible serious injury or death.
Do not allow children to operate this machine.

STARTING AND STOPPING SAFETY

• Mower operating power is supplied from tractor PTO. Refer to your tractor manual for PTO engagement and disengagement instructions. Always operate the tractor PTO in the 540 rpm speed selection. DO NOT OVER SPEED! Know how to stop the tractor and mower quickly in case of an emergency. The recommended tractor horsepower for this mower is 30-45HP.
• When engaging PTO, the engine RPM should always be low. Once engaged and ready to start cutting, raise PTO speed to approx. 540 RPM and maintain throughout cutting operation.
• Always stop the tractor, set brake, shut off the tractor engine, remove the ignition key, lower the implement to the ground and allow cutter blades to come to a complete stop before dismounting the tractor. Never leave equipment unattended with the tractor running or with the implement in the raised position.

OPERATION SAFETY

• The use of this equipment is subject to certain hazards that cannot be protected against by mechanical means or product design. All operators of this equipment must read and understand this entire manual, paying particular attention to safety and operating instructions, before using. If there is something in this manual you do not understand, ask your supervisor, or your dealer, to explain it to you.
• Most accidents occur because of neglect or carelessness. Keep all helpers and bystanders at least several hundred feet from an operating finish mower. Only properly trained people should operate this machine.
• When this machine is operated in populated areas or in other areas where thrown objects could injure persons or property, standard equipment safety chain shielding (which is designed to reduce the possibility of thrown objects) must be installed. Operation must be stopped when anyone comes within 100 yards(300 feet).
• The majority of accidents involve entanglement on the driveline, injury of bystanders by objects thrown by the rotating blades, and operators being knocked off the tractor by low hanging limbs and then being run over by the mower. Accidents are most likely to occur with machines that are loaned or rented to someone who has not read the owner’s manual and is not familiar with a finish mower.
• Check the tractor master shield over the PTO shaft. Make sure it is in good condition and fastened securely to the tractor. Purchase a new shield if old shield is damaged or missing.

TRANSPORT SAFETY

• Review Transport Safety instructions in the tractor manual before moving.
• Check with local authorities regarding transport on public roads. Obey all applicable laws and regulations.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
BEFORE OPERATING THIS MACHINE, BE SURE TO CHECK THE FOLLOWING CHECK-POINTS (HAVING FIRST STOPPED THE TRACTOR ENGINE, DISENGAED THE P.T.O.

1. Check oil levels (if necessary add SAE 90 EP oil)
2. Grease the driveline spiders.
3. Grease all marked point on the machine.
4. Check to be sure the nut/bolts are snug on those parts which are under the most stress (lines, blades, front linkage bolts, gear box bolts, etc.).

HITCH ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

1. The hitch is assembled except for the two pivot bars (#35). Bolt one end of each pivot bar between the welded brackets at the back of the deck using the bolts assembled in the mower.
2. Remove the 5/8″ bolt (#56) at the top of the hitch assembly. Using the same bolt, assemble with the pivot bars on both sides of the upper lift bracket (#54).

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The Finishing Mower is designed to be used on a tractor with a standard category 1 three-point hitch. Using excessive power will shorten the life of the drive train components.

CONNECTING TO TRACTOR:
Park the mower and tractor on a level dry area free of debris and foreign objects.

1. Slowly back the tractor up to the machine.

2. Adjust the three-point arms to align with the mower lift pins.

3. Stop the tractor, set the parking brake and remove the ignition key before dismounting.

4. Slide the three-point arms on the lift pins and lock in place with the clips supplied.

5. With the engine on the tractor shut off, attach the PTO shaft. Both ends of the PTO have a standard 6-spline end with a spring-loaded locking collar. Turn the round collar at the ends of the PTO clockwise to slide onto the splined shafts. The spring-loaded pin in the PTO yoke must lock into the groove on the splined shaft on the gearbox and tractor. Always check to see that both ends of the PTO shaft are securely attached every time the mower is used. This should always be done with the tractor engine shut off. Attach the safety chains supplied with the PTO shaft, allowing sufficient slack for the driveline during turns and operation.
   NOTE : At least one-third of the telescoping length of the PTO should overlap when the mower is in operation.

6. Attach the top link on the tractor to the link pin assembled in the hitch weldment (#54). Adjust the turnbuckle on the tractor top link so that the hitch sits straight with the tractor and mower both on level ground.

FIELD USE PREPARATION

1. Read and understand the Operator’s Manual and all safety signs before operating
2. The implement and tractor should be on a dry level area, clear of debris.
3. Lower the three-point arms on the tractor so they line up with the mounting pins on the implement.
4. Stop the engine and set the brake.
5. Mount the lower lift pins first and then adjust the implement angle using the turnbuckle on the top link. Check that all the clips holding the three-point pins are securely in place.
6. Start the engine, and raise the implement slightly.
7. Adjust the sway blocks or chains on the tractor so the mower is centered between the rear wheels.
8. Adjust the three-point hitch arms to level the implement from side to side.
9. Adjust the turnbuckle on the top of the three-point hitch arms to level the implement from front to back.
10. Adjust the cutting height using the wheel spacers on the wheel yokes. The spacers should be set at the same height on all four wheels.
11. Check for proper air pressure in tires.
12. Check the tightness of belts, bolts, and other hardware.
13. Check blades to see if they are damaged. Sharpen or replace blades if necessary.
14. Check that blade bolts are tight. When installing the blades, the electric impact wrench has a torque value of 167 ft/lbs to 177 ft/lbs for tightening.
15. Clear the working area of foreign objects and check that all bystanders are standing clear before starting.
16. Start the tractor with the mower resting on the ground on all four wheels.
17. Slowly engage the PTO and bring the PTO speed up to 540 rpm for cutting.

FIELD OPERATION

1. The mower works best on dry grass. Slower cutting speed and occasional cleaning may be required on damp or wet grass.
2. The PTO must run at the full 540 pm for a good cut. Slower speeds or double cutting could be required for very high grass.
3. Use a higher blade setting for rough areas to prevent scalping of the surface.
4. Always cut counter-clockwise so grass clippings are thrown on the grass already cut. This saves power and wear on the blades.
5. Sharpen blades if grass tears instead of cutting cleanly.
6. Slow down when cutting corners. Turning too sharply on corners can leave a small strip of grass uncut.

DISCONNECTING FROM TRACTOR

1. Park on a firm-level area and clean the mower.
2. Lower the mower until the load is off the hitch arms.
3. Disconnect the hitch arms and the PTO shaft.
4. Cover the mower for storage to prevent rust.

MAINTENANCE

1. GEARBOX: The gearbox should be filled with SAE 90 oil-level plug. Check the mower before using and at regular intervals (approx. Every 40 hours). See that this oil level is maintained.

2. GEARBOX: Grease wheel yokes, wheel bushing and PTO u-joints approximately every 8 hours. Before using the mower for the first time, grease wheel bushings until you can see the grease squeezed out at the ends of the wheel hub. Lubricate the telescoping PTO tube and the quick-release collars on the ends of the shaft about every 20 hours. Clean all grease fittings before injecting grease and immediately replace any damaged or missing grease fittings. When using the safety chains supplied with the PTO shaft, the shield bearings must be kept lubricated.
   NOTE : There is no grease nipple on the spindles because they use sealed bearings.

3. SHIELDING: Always keep all shielding in place and repair or replace if damaged.

4. BLADES: When replacing or grinding blades, all three blades must be replaced or reground at the same time to maintain the proper balance in the cutting unit. Block up the mower securely before attempting to remove the blades. Use heavy leather gloves to handle the blades. Be sure to tighten the center bolt and lock the washer securely when replacing blades. Always replace the lock washer with an extra heavy-duty supplied with the spindle.

5. BELTS: Remove the belt guards to check belt tightness. The center of the belt span should deflect about 1/2″ with nominal pressure. If the belts slip or are too loose, the bolts holding the gearbox must be loosened. Use the screw on the gearbox mount to tighten the belts. Lock the rod in place and re-tighten the gearbox bolts when the belts are properly tightened. Replace belt guards. Changing belts follows the same procedure as given in the preceding paragraph, except you will have to loosen the belts further to remove them.
   The belt installation is shown in the following drawing.
   NOTE : Belts should always be replaced in matched sets.

TROUBLESHOOTING

NOTE : Since the oil heats, the gearbox may reach a rather high temperature during work and its out surface may become “hot” to touch. This is normal and will cause no damage. It is, however, important to always check that the oil is at the correct level and of the indicated type.
