Always lower Verticutter to ground and allow reels to come to a complete stop, set parking brake, and turn off the tractor s engine before leaving the tractor operator s seat. ATTACHMENT Leveling the Frame Tongue Adjustment The clevis hitch may be rotated and mounted in six different positions for leveling the frame. See Figure. Tractor Hook-Up 1. Position the tractor close to the hitch. Use the Verticutter tongue jack to raise or lower the tongue to level the Verticutter s frame.. Adjust Verticutter hitch height to match tractor drawbar height. Keep frame level with tractor and Verticutter on level ground. Place a -ft. (1. m) carpenter s level across the square frame segments front to rear and adjust hitch height to level the frame.. Attach Verticutter with a /" (19 mm) hitch pin and secure with a lock pin. IMPORTANT: Always use a hitch pin that contains a safety locking device to prevent it from falling out.. Lower the tongue jack until the weight of the Verticutter is fully removed from the jack, then remove the jack. Place the jack in the storage base located on the mainframe weldment. See Figure. 1" ( mm) Figure " (1 mm) -/" (0 mm) " ( mm) " (10 -/" (11. Attach the safety chain on the frame hitch to the tractor. Adjust the chain length to remove all slack except what is necessary to permit turning of the Verticutter. Lock the hook securely on the chain.. Attach the driveline to the tractor. The end with the constant velocity joint connects to the tractor s PTO shaft. Attach the other end to the splined input shaft on the center of the Verticutter frame. See Figure. Verticutter Jack Holder Figure Tractor PTO Shaft NOTE: The use of a drawbar hung between the -point hitch arms is not recommended. A straight drawbar attached to the rear-axle housing in the standard SAE position to the PTO is preferable. Constant Velocity Joint Figure GB 9
. Move the driveline back and forth to ensure that it is securely attached on the PTO shaft of the tractor and input shaft on the Verticutter.. Secure the driveline chain around the Verticutter frame to prevent the outer shield of the driveline from rotating. IMPORTANT: A chain is supplied with each driveline. This chain must be attached to the shield cone of each driveline and to an anchor ring on the Verticutter hitch. 9. Route the hydraulic hoses through the hose support and connect to tractor remote fittings. Shortening Driveline If the driveline requires shortening: 1. Position driveline half shafts in the shortest working position and mark.. Shorten inner and outer guard tubes equally.. Shorten inner and outer sliding shafts equally at the same length as the guard tubes.. Proper overlap is a minimum of one half of the length of each tube, with both tubes of equal length.. Round off all sharp edges and remove burrs. Apply grease to sliding shafts. Hydraulic Hose Connection 1. Route supply and return hydraulic hoses through hose guides on Verticutter unit. Ensure that hoses do not make contact with driveline and tractor drawbar.. Insert the hydraulic hose quick-disconnect fittings into the female quick-disconnect fittings on the tractor. Ensure that supply and return hoses from the Verticutter are mated to the supply and return hoses on the tractor. NOTE: Verticutter quick-disconnect fittings are SM Type 00 QC. If tractor is not fitted with quick-disconnect fittings an adaptor kit must be used. MOWING 1. Disconnect transport chain from between two rear lift arms.. Place the tractor hydraulic control in the lowering position and lower the mowing units to the ground. IMPORTANT: Avoid damage to hydraulic components. Do not attempt to lower Verticutter units with transport chain or lock pin in place.. Engage tractor PTO at low speed to avoid shock to Verticutter powertrain. CAUTION: Do not engage the PTO with mowing units in the raised transport position. Do not raise the mowing units with the PTO engaged. Make sure that the PTO is disengaged and the reels have stopped rotating before raising the mowing units.. Select appropriate tractor gear range (maximum -1/ mph or. km/h at rated PTO speed).. Accelerate to maximum PTO speed of 00 0 rpm. To raise the Verticutter units place the tractor hydraulic control in the lift position. Return the control to the neutral position once the Verticutter units have raised fully against the stops. GB 10
MAINTENANCE DRIVE BELTS Check condition of drive belts frequently. Replace damaged or overstretched belts. TIRES Tires should be checked regularly for damage, especially on units which are frequently transported on highways or rough roads. Regularly check tires for proper inflation. For inflation pressures see SPECIFICATIONS on page 1. CAUTION: Avoid injury! Explosive separation of tire and rim parts is possible when they are serviced incorrectly: Do not attempt to mount a tire without the proper equipment and experience to perform the job. Do not inflate the tires above the recommended pressure. Do not weld or heat a wheel and tire assembly. Heat can cause an increase in air pressure resulting in an explosion. Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel. Do not stand in front or over the tire assembly when inflating. Use a clip-on chuck and extension hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side.
