Damage resulting from over-collapse of the driveline’s inner profile and its outer housing

may allow the driveline to come loose from the Tractor which could cause bodily injury to the

operator or bystanders and/or extensive damage to the Tractor or Implement. OPS-R-0020

When confronted with an incline or ditch, do not

approach from an angle which is perpendicular or

straight on as damage to or over-collapse of the

driveline may occur. OPS-R-0021_A

Inclines and ditches should be approached along a

line which is at an angle as shown. This type of

path will reduce the possibility of over-collapse of

the driveline and resulting damage. If the gradient

is so steep that such as approach increases the

possibility of a tractor roll-over, select an alternate

crossing path.

When operating the tractor and mower across

slopes and inclines, through ditches, and other

uneven terrain conditions, it is important to maintain

sufficient deck to ground clearance. Blade contact

with the ground may cause soil, rocks and other

debris to be thrown out from under the mower

resulting in possible injury and/or property damage.

Ground contact also produces a severe shock load

on the mower drive and to the mower blades

resulting in possible damage and premature wear.
