FN20/FN14 NITRO 02/10 Assembly Section 3-2

ASSEMBLY

DEALER SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS

The mower as received from the factory is virtually completely assembled and requires minimum time to

complete assembly ready for sale.

ASSEMBLY

Select a suitable work area large enough to allow for lowering of the wings. Use extreme caution when

connecting the mower to the tractor. The mower should be securely resting at ground level or setting on blocks.

Keep hands and feet from under the mower deck and clear of pinch points between the tractor hitch arms and

mower pins.

1. Use the implement jack to raise the implement tongue until it is even with the tractor drawbar. Insert the

jack into the jack adapter in the implement tongue and swivel it so that it is vertical. Follow the instructions

on the jack. Install the jack retaining pin. Measure the height of the tractor drawbar and raise the implement

tongue to the same height.

On a fully assembled unit, do not release the Wing Retaining Strap until the hoses are

attached to the tractor and the Wing Cylinders are filled with oil. Always keep bystanders

away while raising and lowering the wings

To lower the wings, hook the hydraulic hoses to the tractor. From the Operators

Seat use the tractor hydraulic control levers to fill wing cylinders with oil. Keep

coworkers and bystanders away from the implement while filling. For implements

with the wings in the raised or transport position, filling the cylinders should raise

the wings slightly and loosen the wing retaining lock. DO NOT release the wing

Transport Bar/Latch if there is a force on the lock. Use tractor hydraulic control

levers to lower the wing(s). Continue to hold the control lever until both wings are

down and the wing cylinders are fully retracted or extended. Continue to cycle the

cylinders several times by raising and lowering the wings fully to remove any

trapped air. If there is sponginess during the raising cycle, this may indicate that

air is entrapped in the hydraulic circuit. Continue to cycle the cylinders until all

sponginess is removed.

The implement wings should lower slowly when they are allowed to float down

and are not powered down. This is a safety feature built into the system. If the

wings fall rapidly, have the cylinders repaired before operating the implement.
