OPERATION
2. With the mower fully supported by the skid
steer boom, lower the mower to ground
level. Slightly tilt the front of the mower
head upward about 2” from ground level.
Turn off the engine, set the parking brake,
and exit the skid steer. Push both latch
handles downward to engage the hitch
pins into the mower hitch retaining tabs.
Never extend any part of your body from
the operator’s area to operate latches or to
connect hydraulic lines or the height limit-
ing chain. The mower hitch is now
securely attached to the mounting plate of
the skid steer.
3. With the skid steer still completely shut
down, secure the height limiting safety
chain to the front of the skid steer chassis.
Attach chain so that lift height is limited to
18 inches.
7. PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION AND SERVICE
Before each use, a pre-operation inspection and service of the mower and skid steer must be performed. This
includes routine maintenance and scheduled lubrication, inspecting that all safety devices are equipped and
functional, and performing needed repairs. Do not operate the mower and skid steer if the pre-operation
inspection reveals any condition affecting safe operation. Perform repairs and replacement of damaged and
missing parts as soon as noticed. By performing a thorough pre-operation inspection and service, valuable
down time and repair cost may be avoided.
Always disconnect the auxiliary hydraulic couplers from the Power Unit before performing
service on the Implement. Never work on the Implement with the Power Unit auxiliary
hydraulics connected. Rotating parts such as blades could turn without warning and cause
immediate entanglement, injury or death.

Periodically inspect all moving parts for wear and replace when
necessary with authorized service parts. Look for loose fasteners, worn
or broken parts, and leaky or loose fittings. Make sure all pins have
cotter pins and washers. Serious injury may occur from not maintaining
this machine in good working order.
