• There is approximately 1 ½” to 4 ½” of height adjustment.
• Rotate height adjust crank handle(s) in a clockwise direction to lift the mower
deck. A counter-clockwise direction is used to lower the mower deck.
• For best results, see “SUGGESTED PRACTICE” section. Graduated scales
are for reference only, not the actual cutter height.
• Bring tow vehicle to a complete stop, shut off engine, and set parking brake.
• Disengage blades.
• Manually shut toggle switch and/or key switch to their “OFF” positions.
• Always remember to remove keys to avoid irresponsible usage. (Electric
Start models only)
• Adjust the cutting height.
• Double check vehicle to mower attachment.
• Start mower engine and set throttle to “FAST” for best cutting performance.
• Slowly engage blade clutch lever.
• Carefully mount vehicle and start mowing at a slow travel speed.
• Swisher recommends if the tow vehicle is equipped with a mid-mount mower
to overlap the cut approximately 6”. This may vary depending on mowing
terrain, obstacles, and/or tow vehicle. Always keep SAFETY the first priority.
• If the tow vehicle is not equipped with a mid-mount mower, we still
recommend offsetting the mower so that the tow vehicle does not crush the
grass.
• To change the offsetting position both ball-lock pins should be removed
(Figure One). The hitches will swivel around remaining bolts. Set hitches to
desired positions and return ball-lock pins, making sure they go thru the hitch
tubing and the semi-circled hole patterned plates.
• Remove bolts from the “L” hitch (H1), (SEE FIGURE FOUR).
• Raise or lower hitch section to obtain proper front to back adjustment.
• Re-install bolts in “L” hitch securely.
MOWER HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
• Make adjustments while TrailMower is not running.
FRONT TO BACK ADJUSTMENT
For best cutting results, the mowing deck should be raised to ¾” higher in the
rear.
• Make adjustments while TrailMower is not running.
TOW HITCH OFFSET
This TrailMower has been designed to operate offset from the center of the tow
vehicle or consecutively with another TrailMower, providing additional cutting width.
When offsetting the mower do so to the side opposite the discharge of the tow
vehicle.
