OPERATION
7.2 Leveling Deck
To Facilitate a safe and efficient mowing operation,
the mower should be operated parallel to the
ground at all times. Never operate if front or rear of
mower is tilted upward. Objects may be discharged
at high speeds causing possible injury or even
death.
Adjust Top Link to level mower roller adjustment.
Side Skid Shoes should always be parallel to
ground throughout the full adjustment range. Adjust
cutting height of machine by raising or lowering rear
roller as specified in Operation Section.
8.1 Driveline Length Check
Do not let the Blades turn when the Mower Deck is raised for any
reason, including clearance or for turning. Raising the Mower deck
exposes the Cutting Blades which creates a potentially serious hazard
and could cause serious injury or even death from objects thrown from
the Blades.

8. DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT
The driveline yoke and tractor PTO shaft must be
dirt free and greased for attachment.
To connect the mower driveline to the tractor
PTO output shaft, pull the driveline yoke collar
back and align the grooves and splines of the
yoke with those of the PTO shaft. Push the
driveline yoke onto the PTO shaft, release the
locking collar, and position the yoke until the
locking collar balls are seated onto the PTO
shaft. Push and pull the driveline back and forth
several times to ensure a secure attachment.
After the driveline is securely attached, place the
tractor PTO master shield back in the operating
position. OPS-R-0003
Before operating the Implement, check to make sure the Implement input driveline will not
bottom out or become disengaged. Bottoming out occurs when the inner shaft penetrates
the outer housing until the assembly becomes solid-it can shorten no more. Bottoming out
can cause serious damage to the Tractor PTO by pushing the PTO into the Tractor and
through the support bearings or downward onto the PTO shaft, breaking it off. A broken
driveline can cause personal injury.
