Checking Tire Pressure


MIF

c CAUTION: Avoid injury! Explosive separation of a tire and rim parts can cause serious injury or death:

· Do not attempt to mount a tire without the proper equipment and experience to perform the job.

· Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate the tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld or heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause an increase in air pressure resulting in a tire explosion. Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.

· When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side and NOT in front of or over the tire assembly.

· Check tires for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, damaged rims or missing lug bolts and nuts.


M33418

1. Check tires for damage.

2. Check tire pressure with an accurate gauge.

3. Add air, if necessary:

Tire Size

Pressure

26-12-12

20 psi max

5-gang

10 psi minimum

7-gang

14 psi minimum


Adapter Piece For Jackstand (optional)

NOTE: In case of a flat tire.


M58877

Remove cap from frame and place the adaptor into the frame (A).


M58878

Release the jackstand (B) from the mower hitch and attach it to the adapter (A). Lock in place with the pin.

Jack up the mower and take off the wheel.

Replace with new or repair wheel assembly and replace jack in normal storage position.

NOTE: DO NOT leave adaptor in frame when not in use.

Electrical

This machine can have an optional 5 or 7 gang electro-hydraulic lift configuration. (See the instruction sheets that come with the corresponding option, Electrical and hydraulic schematics enclosed in the manual).

NOTE: Base machine has electrical reel shutoff only, no electro-hydraulic lift.

Electrical Plug Sockets


M58866

Install plug socket on a suitable place at the backside of the tractor (A).

Connect the brown wire with the ground (-) wire of the tractor. Connect the red (+) wire with the ignition lock via a fuse.

Connect the plug from mower cable (B) with plug socket.

The tandem hydraulic pump provides pressure for the two mowing circuits. Each circuit is operated by electrically activated solenoid reel control valves.


M58888

Operating the valves takes place by means of Mercury switches. Each lift arm has one Mercury switch which open or close the electro circuits to turn on or off the solenoid valves controlling oil flow in the reel circuits.

Electrical Routing


M57486

Remove cover (A)

Connect the Mercury switches with the plugs of wiring harness (B).


M57508

Connect the plug of wire harness with the plug of the univalve (D) or backlap valve.


M58891

If optional electrohydraulic lift package installed, attach harness to main harness and solenoids on EH lift valve (F).

Now take the wiring diagram (See Technical section).

Fit the plugs onto the valve block (F) as follows:

· Wire no. 1 -"A3"

· Wire no. 2 - "A2"

· Wire no. 3 - "A1"

· Wire no. 4 - central


M58891


M58896

All ground connectors (E), relays and harness connector blocks are located under cover (A) prior page.


M58938

Connect wire harness (C) for a 7-gang EH valve to over-center valve on unit to lower cutting units.

See technical section for wire routings.

Replace the cover.
