1. When disconnecting Flex arm, and mower, the
tractor should be completely shut down and
secured in position. Relieve hydraulic pressure by
moving the control levers back and forth several
times.
2. Lower the parking jack and raise the flex arm until
the tongue clevis is no longer resting on the tractor
drawbar and is supported solely by the jack. Make
sure the jack foot is securely resting at ground
level or securely supported by a block before raising
the flex arm.
3. Once the flex arm tongue is being supported entirely
by the jack, remove the hitch bolt, locknut, and
washers.
4. Remove the flex arm driveline from the tractor
PTO shaft. Place the driveline in its storage
bracket to prevent it from contacting mud or dirt
which can contaminate the universal joint
bearings and shorten the life of the driveline.
5. Remove the hydraulic hoses from the tractor and
secure to the flex-arm to prevent contact with dirt.
6. After the driveline has been removed from the
tractor, place the PTO master shield back in the
operating position.

12. FLEX-ARM & MOWER STORAGE
It is recommended that the mower be stored with the center section and both wings fully lowered to ground level.
If the mower is stored with the wings in the raised position, select a level area and install wing transport lock pins
to prevent the wings from falling BEFORE disconnecting the mower hitch and hydraulic hoses from the flex arm.
Store the mower with the center section transport lock pin installed or with the mower fully lowered. Never store
the mower with the center section or a raised wing supported by hydraulic pressure.
