Initial operation

Before operating the SDN-170A, carefully check the following:
- See if there are no objects or tools on the machine.
- See if there are no animals or people nearby.
After the mower is properly connected and lubricated, start the tractor motor and let it run for a few
minutes idling. Connect the power take-off and slowly increase the acceleration until reaching 540
RPM.
Observe the corresponding reading of 540 RPM for the power take-off on the tractor dashboard. Most
tractors run at between 1700 to 2100 RPM, on the tachometer.

Cutting

The recommended tractor speed is from 7 to12 km/hour. When cutting the sides of the planted crop
area, reduce the speed due to the possible hitting of obstacles or uneven terrain (curved levels,
ditches etc).
CUTTING ON EMBANKMENTS:
It is necessary to adjust the position of the cutting bar when cutting on sloped surfaces, using the
hydraulic piston.
If you have any doubts on how to slant the cutting bar, consult this manual.
