to the tractor
NB On the PT the top link bracket is provided with a hole and a slot to attach the

hole and during work the slot is used. Failing to follow these instructions could
result in serious damage to the headstock sliding mechanism and to injury.

PTO Shaft
If necessary, cut the PTO shaft to the right length following the shaft
manufacturer instructions.
When attaching the PTO shaft to the machine and tractor make certain that if the
PTO shaft is fi tted with an overrun clutch this must be installed on the implement.
When connecting to the tractor verify that the locking pin is correctly located and
secure in place. Before use make sure all the chains and guards are correctly
fi tted.
The height of the machine from the ground is controlled by the rear roller, skids
and top link. Before using the fl ail mower make sure that the fl ails do not hit the
ground, this will result in extreme wear will damage the rotor.
Always adjust the top link to keep the machine parallel to the ground when
adjusting the height of the rear roller.
AT ET JT have the supports pictured in fi g.1 to alter the height of the roller
simply remove bolts A, position the plate so the holes align with either the higher
or lower holes on the plate and replace bolts A. On some of these models the
plates may be positioned on the inside of chassis. By moving the supports into
a horizontal position the roller can be moved further away from the fl ail rotor
allowing more space for rotor to discharge the cuttings.
TT model has the skids pictured in fi g.2 to alter simply remove bolt Band loosen
C, reposition the skid in the desired height and tighten B and C.
PT HT have the roller brackets shown in fi g.3. Undo bolts E move the plate to the
desired height and tighten bolts E. Depending on the width of the machine the
plates may be either on the inside of the chassis or the outside.
