1-2 DESCRIPTION
The MP-3132, (figure 1-1), is designed for turf
maintenance applications where a high quality
of cut on turf grasses is required.
Three sets of counter- rotating blades (per
deck) continue to cut the grass clippings sev-
eral times before allowing the tiny pieces to
fall to the ground. This eliminates a build up
of grass residue on top of the turf. (the FP-
3132 is exactly like the MP-3132 minus the
mulching blades) The caster wheel arrange-
ment along with the flexible, floating deck at-
tachment, the standard front mounted rollers
and the under deck roller all work together to
give an even cut and minimize scalping.
NOTE: The inside rear wheel on the wing
mower decks and both the front wheels on the
rear mower deck are rigidly mounted and are
not designed to caste.
Power from the tractor is transmitted through
a telescoping driveline to a gearbox arrange-
ment, which allows either wing unit to be
folded up to 30° while still operating. Power is
passed to the spindle housings by a B-
section, Kevlar reinforced belt. Drive train
protection is provided by belt slippage.
