BLift Link Lowering Speed Control Knob
To avoid personal injury:
A Fast lowering speed may cause damage or
injury. Lowering speed of the implement
should be adjusted to two or more seconds.
The lowering speed of the lift link can be controlled by
adjusting the lift link lowering speed control knob.
C How to adjust the Lowering Speed
1. Park the machine on a level surface and apply the
parking brake.
2. Move the PTO lever in the "DISENGAGE" position.
3. Move the High-Low gear shift lever in the "NEUTRAL"
position.
4. Start the engine and raise the implement fully.
5. Turn the lift link lowering speed knob clockwise to the
"LOCK" position.
6. Stop the engine and move the Hydraulic lift lever in the
"DOWN" position.
7. Turn the knob counterclockwise slowly to adjust the
lowering speed.
A Before adjustment, never check near or under the
implement.
A Turn the knob slowly and carefully to avoid sudden fall
of the implement.
BHydraulic Lift Lever
The hydraulic lift lever is used to raise and lower the
implement used with the machine (ex. Mower).
To lower the implement, push the lever FORWARD.
To raise it, pull the lever BACKWARD.
A Do not operate until the engine is warmed up. If
operation is attempted when the engine is still cold, the
hydraulic system may be damaged.
A Do not operate at slow Engine rpm. Move the throttle
lever above 1/2.
A If noises are heard when implement is lifting after the
hydraulic lift lever has been activated, the hydraulic
mechanism is not adjusted properly. Contact your
local KUBOTA Dealer for adjustment.
