Power take-off (PTO) coupler
Mower deck PTO drive shaft
Mechanical lift kit
Hydraulic lift kit with third function
Independent hydraulic lift kit (Mechanical lift + Hydraulic lift cylinder + 3rd function)
The forward lift link is installed on the deck. It is spring loaded, allowing the link to connect automatically to front hangers (installed on tractor).
The PTO drive-shaft design allows the shaft to automatically adjust as the female end of the PTO coupler engages with the male end of the gearbox coupler. The male end coupler has tapered guides to ensure engagement of both ends.
Mower decks are equipped with a heavy-duty, double-sided locking latch to ensure rigidity and reliability.
Standard mechanical mower lift
The standard mechanical mower lift system moves the mower in conjunction with the rear implement and is controlled using the rockshaft lever.
鈥�&苍产蝉辫;
Optional hydraulic mower lift
The optional hydraulic mower lift system allows the mower to be raised and lowered independently of the rear implements. It uses the dual selective control valve (SCV) (loader joystick) to lift the mower deck.
鈥�&苍产蝉辫;
Optional independent hydraulic mower lift
The optional independent hydraulic lift system allows the mower to be raised and lowered independently of the rear and front implements. It operates using the third-function button on the loader SCV joystick and gives the operator full control of the mower deck in up and down directions. This feature allows for quick height changes on the go.
NOTE: This option requires third-function SCV to be installed on the tractor.

Dual mid-selective control valve (SCV)
Optional third SCV
54D and 60D High-Capacity AutoConnect鈩� deck is compatible with rear 3-point hitch attachments, backhoes, and loaders. The operator can keep these extra implements attached while mowing.
1 Series and 2025R tractors are equipped with a dual mid-SCV as standard equipment. The mid-mower hydraulic lift can use the dual SCV (loader joystick), or third SCV (optional), to lift the mower deck, giving maximum flexibility.
Mid PTO
Mowers are driven by the tractor's mid PTO, providing the following advantages:
NOTE: To use the mid PTO for other front-mounted attachments, the operator needs to remove the quick-connect drive shaft and rear lift link. Several pins must be removed to allow removing the rear mower mounting linkage from the tractor. No tools are needed.
Height-of-cut adjustment
The height-of-cut (HOC) adjustment is located on the tractor and can easily be adjusted with the turn of the knob.
To install/remove mower deck, the HOC adjustment knob must be set in the install position.
Removable drive over ramp for servicing
Greaseable blade spindle
These mowers are designed with many serviceability and durability features. Some of these features are:
