Recommended operating speed and maximum allowed oil flow:
Adjust engine RPM so that the loader's auxiliary hydraulic flow is within the specified range for the
mower. Too little flow will not rotate the blades fast enough for good mowing results. Correct flow
ensures that the blades to rotate fast enough for a good finish. However, too high setting will result in
excess vibration and noise, and the mower may get damaged. Generally, only the 1-pump setting
should be used (on applicable loaders).
Adjust drive speed according to cutting height, grass type, and other conditions to ensure clean cut.
Monitor the loading and rotating speed of the mower by listening to changes in its noise.
Operate the attachment keeping the hydraulic flow within recommended range. Never
exceed maximum allowed input of hydraulic energy.
For the best finish:
Avoid cutting wet grass. Wet or dense grass can build up under the deck, gradually decreasing mower
performance.
Keep the blades in good condition, and keep the mower clean. Sharp blades will increase efficiency
and improve the quality of cut.
Avoid cutting too much at one pass. Generally, no more than one third of the length of the grass
should be cut at once. Tall grass may require incremental cutting with gradually lower cutting height.
Mowing in reverse direction is not recommended as the loader wheels compact the grass just before
cutting while reversing.
It is important to set the floating system as instructed in this manual. Otherwise the
blades may not turn, or the mower will not follow the ground properly.
Stop the mower immediately if it makes abnormal noise, vibrates, or if the blades or the
collector are blocked. Find out the cause before continuing use.
CAUTION
Risk of thrown parts - Avoid running the attachment at very high speed.
Operating
the attachment at too high speed may cause high vibrations, noise, or thrown parts from
the attachment, or damage that could lead to personal injury. See recommended input
flow in this manual.

Working on uneven ground
Extra caution is needed when using the equipment on inclined terrains and slopes. Drive slowly especially on
inclined, uneven, or slippery surfaces, and avoid sudden changes in speed or direction. Operate the controls
of the loader with careful and smooth movements. Watch out for ditches, holes on the ground, and other
obstacles, as hitting an obstacle may cause the loader to tip over.
Maximum lifting capacity can not be achieved on inclined terrain. On horizontally tilted terrain the load must
not be lifted high. The loader frame articulation should be kept straight when lifting heavy loads; turning the
load during lifting operation will affect the stability of the loader and may lead to overturning of the machine.
Mow slopes by driving straight up and down, not across. Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. Exercise
extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.
If the tyres lose traction, stop the mower blades and proceed slowly straight down the slope. Do not mow near
drop-offs, ditches or embankments. The loader could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over the edge of a cliff,
ditch, or if an edge caves in.
