Level adjustments are made at the tractor's 3-Point lower arms and top center
link.
1. Park tractor and Mowers on a flat level surface.
2. Slowly raise Mowers with the tractor's Hydraulic 3-Point lift until the unit is
about 1 to 2" above the ground.
3. Ensure that the lower arms are stabilized to prevent excessive side
movement.
4. Place a spirt level on the top cover running from left to right and adjust one
of the lower 3-Point arms up or down until the Mowers is level from left to
right.
5. Adjust tractor's top center link to place the upper hitch pin vertically above
or slightly behind the lower hitch pins.
6. Slowly operate the tractor's 3-Point hydraulic control up and down to check
for clearance between the tires, frame, drawbar, etc.
Belt Tension Adjustment
! WARNING
Excessive tension on the belt may lead to premature failure of belt and drive
components. Excessive tension on the belt may also lead to a safety hazard to the
operator or bystanders. The Belt tension should be checked after the first 20
hours of use and every 40 hours thereafter.
1. Check belt tension by applying approximately 22 pounds of pressure half way
between the pulleys. The belt should deflect approximately 3/8".
2. Belt tension can be adjusted at the belt tension bolt. Turn belt tension bolt
until desired belt tension is achieved.
3. Loosen gearbox mounting bolts and move gearbox until Mowers driveline is
running straight (parallel) with the Flail Mower.
Crushing Height Adjustment
The machines cutting height depends upon the position of Adjustment plate.
1. Remove bolts that fix the roller height on both sides.
2. Lift or lower both sides of roller in equal measurements.
3. Replace bolts and re-tighten to the proper torque.
4. Inspect blades to make sure they do not touch the ground. blades that come
in contact with the ground will wear quickly. If necessary, readjust Crushing
height to keep blades from touching the ground.
