3 - OPERATION
You have purchased a three spindle mower designed especially for the mowing of
grassy areas where a highly professional cut is required without wasting time.
This mower is perfect for the maintenance of parks, private lawns, industrial parks,
airports, hospital grounds, schools, highways, golf courses, sport complexes, etc. The
GM1 series, for tractors up to 30 HP, come in working widths of 4’, 5’ and 6’
respectively. The mower can be either tractor front or rear mounted. On your mower,
the tractor PTO transmits its power through a driveline to a speed multiplier gearbox. A
pulley is attached to the pinion gear shaft of the gearbox which, via high resistance
belts, transmits power to pulleys coupled to the three individual spindle shafts. Blades
are secured to these shafts which turn at a high blade tip speed to cut the grass.
Our grooming mowers comes equipped with 4 swivel wheels. Aside from regulating the
cutting height, the wheels are set in such a way as to allow the mower to follow the
contour of the terrain and give a precise level cut even in undulating conditions.
