OPERATING YOUR TRAIL MOWER
INTENDED USE
The 44” Trail Mower is designed to produce a qualit finish cut on lawns, golf courses,
etc. It is not intended to clear brush or cut saplings. Your Trail Mower should be
towed behind an ATV, golf cart, lawn tractor, or other approved vehicle. It is not
designed for speeds exceeding 5 MPH. WARNING: To avoid serious injur ,
operate our mower up and down the face of slopes, NEVER across the face. DO
NOT MOW SLOPES GREATER THAN 15 DEGREES! (See attached guide for
sighting slopes.)
ATTACHING TRAIL MOWER TO TOW VEHICLE
• Back vehicle up to desired towing position.
• Offset the Trail Mower to the side opposite the tow vehicle discharge (if an ).
This prevents the tow vehicle from throwing grass into Trail Mower engine.
• If tow vehicle has a ball hitch, the ball must be removed before hitch can be
fastened.
• Attach hitch to the tow vehicle with hitch pin (H11). Make certain the hitch
pin goes completel through and is clipped to prevent accidental separation.
• Securel attach safet tether (6736) to tow vehicle and to the Trail Mower
toggle switch located on right side of the engine. The safet tether will stop the
Trail Mower engine either manuall or if the two should become separated. It is
very important that the safety tether is securely attached to both the toggle
switch and to the tow vehicle. See Fig 3, pg 15.
The operation of an mower can produce foreign objects to be thrown into the
e es, resulting in severe e e damage. Alwa s wear certified safet glasses or
wide-vision safet goggles over spectacles before staring an cutting machine
and while operating such a machine.
The operation of an cutter produces sound waves that are damaging to the
human ear. Ear protection is recommended.
CAUTION!
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of
children. Children are often attracted to the machine and the mowing
activit . Never assume that children will remain where you last saw
them.
TRANSPORTING MOWER
• Stop Trail Mower.
• Place Trail Mower deck in its highest position.
• When transporting without the use of a tow vehicle, remove spark plug
wire and place it where it cannot contact the spark plug.
6

• Set vehicle parking brake or chock wheels to prevent accidental rolling.
• Start engine properl .
• Slowl engage blade control.
• In a safe environment, i.e. no children, allow blades to rotate and engine to
idle for 5 minutes. This breaks in the belts and the engine.
• Stop mower properl .
ENGAGING BLADES
The Trail Mower will not start if the blade lever is in the “ENGAGED” position.
• Engage blades b rotating blade lever into the “ENGAGED” position.
• Rotate blade lever in opposite direction to disengage blade.
• The dual braking s stem is applied when the blades become disengaged. It is
designed to bring the blades to quick stop (approximatel 7 seconds). Each
Trail Mower brake s stem has been tested and calibrated. For safet , the
consumer should not alter the braking s stem.
STARTING THE ENGINE
See engine manufacturer’s recommendations for the t pe and amount of oil and fuel
used. Trail Mowers equipped with an electric start engine will need a batter (sold
separatel ). Swisher recommends using a standard “12N12A” batter .
• Make sure the tow vehicle parking brake is set, mower is level, and blades are
disengaged. Engine must be level to accuratel check and fill oil. Do not overfill.
• Check spark plug wire, oil, and fuel.
• Check all electrical connections for buildup or debris.
• Make sure toggle switch is not turned “OFF” and safet tether is attached.
• Set engine throttle to “RUN” position.
• Move the choke lever to the “ON” position (cold engine onl ).
• With feet clear of mower deck, turn ke switch to the “START” position; release
when engine begins to run (12 volt models). Recoil models must use pull-rope.
Pull rope with a single fluid motion.
• Set engine throttle at maximum RPM.
• Allow engine to run a few moments before engaging blades.
BREAKING IN YOUR MOWER
CAUTION!
SHUT OFF MOWER ENGINE AND REMOVE SPARK PLUG WIRE FROM
SPARK PLUG BEFORE MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS TO THE MOWER.
7

• There is approximatel 1 ½” to 4 ½” of height adjustment.
• Rotate height adjust crank handle in a clockwise direction to lift the mower
deck. A counter-clockwise direction is used to lower the mower deck.
• Graduated scales are for reference onl , not the actual cutter height.
• Bring tow vehicle to a complete stop, shut off engine, and set parking brake.
• Disengage blades.
• Manuall shut toggle switch and/or ke switch to their “OFF” positions.
• Alwa s remember to remove ke s to avoid irresponsible usage (electric start
models onl ).
• Adjust the cutting height.
• Double check vehicle to mower attachment.
• Start mower engine and set throttle to “FAST” for best cutting performance.
• Slowl engage blade clutch lever.
• Carefull mount vehicle and start mowing at a slow travel speed.
• Swisher recommends if the tow vehicle is equipped with a mid-mount mower
to overlap the cut approximatel 6”. This ma var depending on mowing
terrain, obstacles, and/or tow vehicle. Alwa s keep SAFETY the first priorit .
• If the tow vehicle is not equipped with a mid-mount mower, we still
recommend offsetting the mower so that the tow vehicle does not crush the
grass.
• Make adjustments while Trail Mower is not running.
• Remove hairpins NB127 from clevis pins 18842 so L-hitch 18829 can
be repositioned.
• Raise or lower hitch section to obtain proper front to back adjustment.
• Insert clevis pins in the desired hitch position and secure with hairpins.
MOWER HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
• Make adjustments while Trail Mower is not running.
FRONT TO BACK ADJUSTMENT
For best cutting results, the mowing deck should be raised to ½” to ¾” higher in
the rear.
TOW HITCH OFFSET
This Trail Mower has been designed to operate offset from the center of the tow
vehicle or consecutivel with another Trail Mower, providing additional cutting
width. When offsetting the mower do so to the side opposite the discharge of the tow
vehicle.

SUGGESTED MOWING PRACTICES
• Operate mower engine at full throttle to assure the best cutting performance and
maximum material discharge.
• Allow wet grass to dr . Wet grass will clump and collect under the mowing deck.
• Mowing should be started with tow vehicle in low gear and increased onl as safe
mowing conditions permit. Mowing speed should not exceed 5 MPH.
• The average lawn should be cut to approximatel 2.5” during the cool season and to
over 3” during the hot months.
• For a healthier lawn and better aesthetics, our lawn should be mowed often and
after moderate growth.
• When cutting high or dense grass areas go slowl . Some areas ma need to be
mowed twice. The second cut should be at 90 degrees to the first, if possible.
•Mowing thick or high grass: Raise rear of deck to ½” to ¾” above front of the
deck. See “FRONT TO BACK ADJUSTMENT”. When mowing thick or high grass,
it is recommended to cut area twice. The first at a higher setting and the second at the
desired lawn height.
•Creating a manicured lawn: Never cut more than 1/3 of the grass height in one
cutting.
GENERAL TROUBLE SHOOTING
The mower is not cutting level.
• Check air pressure of all tires; make sure the are equal. See tires for
maximum inflation.
• Make certain blades are installed identicall , without the engine running.
The engine will not start.
• Disengage blades, turn toggle switch to “OFF” position, check batter and all
other electrical connections, and inspect spark plug and wire.
• Contact engine manufacturer or qualified mechanic.
Engine runs poorl .
• See engine manual.
• Check the throttle adjuster.
• Replace fuel, clean fuel filter and fuel line.
• Check spark plug and gap.
Mower bounces excessivel while towing.
• Decrease tire pressure.
• Tow at a slower speed.
IF PROBLEMS PERSIST HAVE A QUALIFIED MECHANIC SERVICE THE
MOWER. NEVER ATTEMPT TO MAKE AN ADJUSTMENT THAT YOU
ARE NOT SURE IS CORRECT. DOING SO CAN CAUSE OTHER
PROBLEMS.

MOWER MAINTENANCE
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
The warrant on this Trail Mower does not cover items that have been subjected to
operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warrant , operator must
maintain unit as instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodicall to maintain our unit properl .
All adjustments in this manual should be checked at least once each season.
BEFORE EACH USE
• Check engine oil level on a level surface. Check twice to ensure an accurate
reading.
• Check condition of air filter; clean and replace as necessar .
• Check blade operation; keep blades in good condition.
• Check for loose fasteners and tighten them as needed.
AFTER EACH USE
• Keep blades sharp.
• Remove fresh grass clippings with garden hose.
• Hardened grass clippings on underside should be scraped out with a putt
knife.
• Keep fluids at proper levels.
• Cover unit to prevent rain or other debris buildup. Definitel cover the
engine.
BEFORE AND/OR AFTER EACH SEASON
• Replace the spark plug.
• Clean or replace the air filter.
• A new spark plug and clean air filter assure proper air-fuel mixture and help
our engine run better and last longer.
• Check blades and belts for wear. Replace as necessar .
• Change the oil.
• See engine manufacturer’s recommendations for servicing.
STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS
CAUTION! Do not store engine indoors or other poorl ventilated area. Keep
engine awa from gas appliances and water heaters where fumes could contact
open flame, pilot lights, or sparks.
If engine is to be stored for 30 or more days, prepare unit as follows:
· Drain fuel outside into an approved container.
· Start engine properl and run until unit is out of fuel.
· Let engine cool.
· Remove remaining gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum
deposits from forming within the engine. Gum deposits can cause
malfunction in the engine.
· Store mower with blades disengaged to prevent belts from being permanentl
stretched.
10

BLADE CARE AND SERVICE
For best results mower blades must be kept sharp. The blades can be sharpened with a
few strokes of a file or grinding wheel. Do not attempt to sharpen blades while the are
on the mower. Disconnect spark plug wire before servicing unit.
Important: Replace blades that have been damaged or deeply nicked.
Important: Check blade and spindle hardware on a regular basis to make sure
nuts are tight.
Only a qualified mechanic should make any
adjustments, disassembly or other kind of repairs.
