Removing a blockage
It is unlikely that the cutting deck gets blocked in normal operation. However, when when mowing wet grass or
driving at too high speed, the collector nozzle or tubes might get blocked. If blocking occurs, lower driving
speed, and also check the cutting deck and clean if necessary. Increase engine RPM to operate the mower at
maximum allowed hydraulic flow.
DANGER
Cutting hazard - Unexpected starting.
Clearing a blockage can start the mower
unexpectedly immediately after clearing the blockage, if the auxiliary hydraulics of the
loader is left on.
Always stop the loader by following the safe stopping procedure before going near the
mower. Never reach to the cutting deck if the mower or its blades can move.
To prevent accidents, turn the auxiliary hydraulics control lever of the loader to its neutral
position, shut down the loader engine and release the residual pressure always before
going near the attachment.
Keeping the rotating speed sufficiently high and drive speed low on demanding conditions are essential to
avoid blockages. Keep the equipment clean, so that material will not stick on it.
Wet, thick, or long grass can get coiled around the blades if drive speed is too high. When mowing high or
wet hay more than one run may be needed for even results. Also, adjusting the cutting height to higher
setting, or operating at lifted operating position, will help avoiding blockages.
If blockage occurs, it needs to be cleared manually using suitable tools. Follow safe stopping procedure
before going near the mower.
WARNING
Cutting hazard - Make sure collector fan is disabled before handling collector
components.
Disconnect hydraulic hoses before removing collector tubes or reaching to
the collector fan.
6.9
Transport position
When driving with the loader, keep the
mower lifted off the ground and tilted back
slightly.
CAUTION
Keep the loader stable. Always transport the attachment as low and close to the ground
as possible. Keep the telescopic boom retracted during transport drive.
