2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The following safety instructions and the instructions given in the BOXER manual must be observed:
• The capacity and the stability of the machine to which the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER will be connected must be
adjusted to the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER on the basis of 540 rpm (PTO).
• The fastening width of the machine must also be the same as the fastening width of the BOXER PASTURE
TOPPER.
• Be aware of the controls and how to stop a tractor quickly.
• Conveying people is strictly forbidden.
• The working speed is between 2 and a maximum of 10 km/h depending on the height and the density of the
crop.
• The machine can be set almost level in the working position by using the top bar and the traveling wheels.
• Avoid ground that does not provide sufficient support and is too uneven.
• The warning symbols and pictograms on the machine must continue to be visible and legible.
• Take care that no people or animals come into the operating range while mowing.
• Do not inspect or clean a connected machine and/or a machine that is running.
• If the machine does not have a safety cab, wear safety goggles and a dust mask when mowing dusty or sandy
areas.
• Wear hearing protection if the sound level is higher than 85 dBA.
• Only use the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER for mowing grass, leaves, etc., without coming into contact with stones,
sand, gravel, curbs, etc.
• Jolting, jerky and swaying movements must be avoided.
• The BOXER PASTURE TOPPER must be stored on a paved surface.
• All pins and bolted connections must have sound retainers.
• Improper use of the mower must be avoided at all times.
• Obey traffic rules.
• If the hydraulics of the tractor’s lifting device are not operating correctly, stop working immediately to prevent
accidents and/or damage.
• Work only with the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER in a horizontal position with both swivel casters on the ground.
When transporting over a road, the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER must be free of the ground and be securely
suspended in the lifting chains of the three-point lifting device so that no obstacles can be hit.

3. PUTTING INTO OPERATION/OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before connecting the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER to the machine mechanically, the following must be checked:
• Whether the machine has sufficient capacity in all situations that may arise, such as swerving or turning, to be
safely fitted with the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER.
• Whether the connection points to be guaranteed on the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER match the connection points
on the machine.
• Check that the power take-off does not touch anything with the lifting device in the highest and lowest
position.
• Make sure the chain guard on the back is working properly in connection with the danger of ejection of hard
bits such as stones, etc. If required, untangle the chain links.
• Whether the machine’s blades are sharp enough. Sufficiently sharp blades guarantee a good result.
• Check the universal joint for proper connection and sufficient overlap (at least 15 cm).
• Check that all bolted connections have been sufficiently tightened every week.
• After the points above have been checked, the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER can be connected to the machine
mechanically. When connecting mechanically, the machine must be maneuvered slowly to the attachment
system.
• Use the manual for specific settings. See Chapter 4. "WORKING METHOD AND USE OF THE BOXER PASTURE
TOPPER".

4. WORKING METHOD AND USE OF THE BOXER PASTURE
TOPPER
Prior to use, the safety instructions given in Chapter 2 must be observed!
• Only work with coupling rods that move freely upward such that the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER runs horizontally
and on its wheel.
• The wheel support or the skids can be adjusted to set the working height (mower height).
• Make sure that the fastening bolts have been sufficiently tightened and secured.
• Take care that the shaft with universal joint is as level as possible when in the working position.
• Check the safeguards of the top link pins and lifting rod pins.
• If the mowing height is set too low, the blades usually make too much contact with the ground and the machine
will be damaged.
• If required, untangle the chain links.
• Work only at a power take-off rotation of 540 rpm.
• No people may stand between the tractor and the vehicle.
• After every working day, the BOXER PASTURE TOPPER must be cleaned carefully so that no grass and/or sand
residue remains stuck to the system anywhere and hardens.
• Park the combination with the mowing machine on a flat surface.
• Do not stand on the machine if the blades are still rotating.
