GENERAL SAFETY Operating Conditions Commercial mowers are subje cted to a variety of ground conditions. Mowing machine operators must understand the need to pay con stant attention to the changing conditions that they may enco unter while operating the machine.
DAILY INSPECTION To enable customers to implement servi ce procedures, and design changes that are recom mended to improve the operation and service life of the mower, Service Bulletins are issued by the factory. It is important that Service Bulletin instructions are implemented as soon as possible.
DAILY INSPECTION Cont.. OUTRIGGER WHEELS Fig.1 Serial No. Up to 73. Dual Wheels. It is important that the Roller Bearings and Hub Cavity are kept packed with grease. Apply grease daily. IMPORTANT Also check that the Lock Colla rs at both ends of the Axle are locked to the Axle by the Set Screws Fig.
DAILY INSPECTION DRIVE BELTS AND SHEAVES Fig.3 Check all Drive Belts for si gns of cracking, excessive wear, cuts, or stretching. Sheaves must be kept free of debris. Worn Sheaves allow a belt, that has no excessive wear, to ‘bottom out’ in the ‘vee’ groove.
DAILY INSPECTION PTO SHAFT Fig.6 The PTO Shaft must be installed, relative to the tractor, as shown. WARNING Do not operate the machin e without the PTO Shaft Shields in place. To do so coul d result in serious personal injury. The PTO Manufacturers S ervice M anual is supplied with the machine.
DAILY INSPECTION HYDRAULIC SYSTEM • Check all hydraulic fittings, conne ctions and hoses for signs of leaks, damage or we ar. • Hoses must be routed clea r of any moving parts, and secured to prevent ‘rubbing’ to prevent damage. • Keep all hydraulic connections clean.
HOOK-UP TO TRACT OR Fig.8 It is important that the Mower Frame is ‘level’ for the correct set-up for mowing. Connect the Mower Swivel Hitch to the Tractor Draw Bar using an a pprove d Draw Pin. The front and rear Jack Shafts should be the same height from the ground.
HOOK-UP TO TRACT OR Connect the Mower ‘Quick Connect s’ to the tractor accessory hydraulic connec tions. Keep the hydraulic connections clean. WARNING Relieve any hydraulic pressure in the mower hydraulic system before connecting the mower to the tractor hydraulic system.
TRANSPORT LOWERING THE REELS Before ‘lowering ‘ the Reels, position the Mowe r on level ground. If on a slope face the mower ‘up hill’, this allows the reels to lower evenly on both sid es, and prevents damage to the Reel Drive s. Check that the transport Safety Chains are un-h ooked from the Reels and are in their ‘stowe d’ position.
HYDRAULIC LIFT OPERATION REEL/WING - LIFT SEQUENCE Fig.10. From Serial No. 232. (See Fig.11 for earlier machines) Hydraulic oil pressure to the ‘rai se’ circuit lifts the five main reels first, followed by the wing reels an d lastly the wing frames.
HYDRAULIC LIFT OPERATION REEL/WING - LIFT SEQUENCE Fig.11 Machines up to Serial No. 231. Hydraulic oil pressure to the ‘RAISE’ circuit lifts the five main reels first, followed by the wing reels an d lastly the wing frames . The cylinders are ‘locked up’ by Pilot Check Valves.
HYDRAULIC LIFT OPERATION SEQUENCE VALVE SETTING. (7, 9 & 11 Gang only) Fig.12 If the main (center five) reel assemblies start to lower before the wing frames/reels hav e fini shed their cycle, the Sequence Valve requires re-setting, as f ollows : • Back-off the Jam-nut.
HYDRAULIC LIFT OPERATION SEQUENCE VALVE MANIFO LD, RELIEF VALVE SETTING To prevent damage to the lift linkage if there is a ‘hang- up’ of a Lift Chain, a Relief Valve is installed in the Manifold Block to control oil pressu re to the Lift Cylinders.
LIFT CHAIN ADJUSTMENTS Fig.14 The Lift Chains for the rear outer reels, No’ s 4,5,8,9,10 & 11,are fitted with chain adjusters that ensure that the ‘Snubber’ Rollers engage correctly in the catchers. Refer to page 21 for the correct se quence of reel numbering and the Lift Chain locatio ns.
LIFT CHAINS ADJUSTMENT REELS 4 AND 5 Cont. Fig.15. (page 20) Extend the cylinder and check that the chain bolt heads are level. Extending the Cylinder Rod End Clevis rotates the RH Arm C.C.W. and the LH Arm C.W. Retracting the Rod End Clevis rotate s the arm s in the opposite direction.
MOWING PROCEDURE Preferably position the Mower on level ground, if on a slope, face ‘up hill’ to allow the reels to lower evenly and prevent possible damage to the reel drives. CAUTION Do not engage the tractor PTO when the reel s are in the raised position.
CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUS TMENT FAIRWAY. FLOATING HEAD Fig.18 A special tool is available that ensures that each mo wing unit cuts at the same height, and also that the Reel s and Bed-knives are parallel to each other. To set the cutting height : • Raise the Reels to transport position.
REEL TO BED KNIFE ADJUSTMENT Pre-single point adjustment units. Fig.19 When the reels are sharp, and corre ctly adjusted to the bed-knife, they will cut paper as clean a s scissors. To adjust the reel blade to bed-knife clearance : • Check the Bed-knife and the Bed-knife Holder Screws for tightness.
REEL TO BED-KNIFE SINGLE POINT ADJUSTMENT Adjust the Reel to Bed-knife ‘contact’ to give an even cut across the full length of the Bed-knife, as shown in Fig.20. Fig.21 As wear takes place on the Reel Blade s and the Bed- Knife, the ‘single point adjuster’ provides a quick, easy , and accurate method to make adjustme n ts.
VERTICAL MOWER. DEPTH OF CUT AD JUSTME NT Depth of cut changes as the height adjuster wheel pivot, relative to the frame. Notches on the wheel height adj us- ter allow ‘indexing’, ensuring the height adjustme nt is equal at both ends of the Reel. Fig.
VERTICAL MOWER – OPERATION CAUTION It is important that the operating instructions are followed to avoid serious damage to bot h the machine and also to the turf. Recommended ope rating procedure : • Position the machine on level grou nd. • Lower the cutting reels until they are just clear of the turf.
ROUTINE MA INTENANCE In addition to the daily maintenance on pages 8 to12, the following maintenance sch edules are recommended. IMPORTANT These schedules are base d on operating in ‘average’ conditions. In wet, heavy or sandy conditions, more frequent periods of service are recommende d.
ANNUAL MAINTENA NCE INSPECTION IMPORTANT To maintain the efficient and reliable operation of you r Kesmac Mower it is important that the checks and maintenance in the following schedule are carried out. It is recommended that this be done at the end of the mowing season, before storage, and also before the start of a new season.
