INTRODUCTION AND DESCRIPTION
1-1 INTRODUCTION
1-2 DESCRIPTION
We are pleased to have you as a Locke Turf
customer. Your MP-3132 or FP-3132 has been
carefully designed to give maximum service with
minimum down time. This manual is provided to give
you the necessary operating and maintenance
instructions for keeping your mower in top operating
condition. Please read this manual thoroughly.
Understand what each control is for and how to use it.
Observe all safety precautions decaled on the
machine and noted throughout the manual for safe
operation of the implement. If any assistance or
additional information is needed, contact your
authorized Locke Turf distributor.
The MP-3132, (figure 1-1), is designed for turf
maintenance applications where a high quality
of cut on turf grasses is required.
Three sets of counter- rotating blades (per
deck) continue to cut the grass clippings sev-
eral times before allowing the tiny pieces to
fall to the ground. This eliminates a build up
of grass residue on top of the turf. (the FP-
3132 is exactly like the MP-3132 minus the
mulching blades) The caster wheel arrange-
ment along with the flexible, floating deck at-
tachment, the standard front mounted rollers
and the under deck roller all work together to
give an even cut and minimize scalping.
NOTE
All references made to right, left, front, rear, top or
bottom is as viewed facing the direction of travel with
implement properly attached to tractor.
Technical Specifications
NOTE: The inside rear wheel on the wing
mower decks and both the front wheels on the

PREPARATION FOR USE
Before operation, service all locations outlined in Section 4-2 “Lubrication” and remove transport lock
pins from mower decks as shown in Figure 3-4. Unpin inside wing tires and reposition into a trailing posi-
tion and re-pin in place. Break in the mower in a static condition at half throttle for 30 minutes. Inspect
all belts for proper tension; check gearboxes for proper oil levels and check to make sure blade spindles
are not overheating.
D. Adjust tongue and clevis angle as necessary
to keep mower frame level with ground when attached
to drawbar. (Figure 2-2)
Figure 2-2 Tongue/Clevis Adjustment
2-1 ATTACHING TO TRACTOR
IMPORTANT
(540 RPM ONLY)
The minimum required PTO horsepower is 40 HP for the
MP-3132 and FP-3132.
WARNING
NEVER STAND BETWEEN TRACTOR AND
MOWER WHILE TRACTOR IS BEING
BACKED TO HITCH.
A. Adjust tractor drawbar length to dimension
shown in Figure 2-1. Incorrect drawbar length will
change angle of driveline causing possible damage to
constant velocity joint. See tractor operator’s manual for
drawbar adjustment procedure.
It is important that the MP and FP are both oper-
ated in a level position. Leveling can be accom-
plished by adjusting the tractor draw bar height,
also by leveling the mower frame by use of the
adjustable jack stand.

NOTE:
14 IN
Offset drawbar
must be turned
down as shown.
If after properly leveling the mower frame the
draw bar height is less than 8”, a standard pull pin
may be too long. To prevent turf damage in un-
even terrain, the standard pin should be replaced
with a 1” x 5” Grade 5 bolt with locknut securely
tightened.
If after turning the offset draw bar downward, there is
less than 7” ground clearance, it should be replaced with
a straight draw bar or the unit cannot be properly leveled.
IMPORTANT
E. Connect hydraulic hose to tractor remote
quick couplers. (See tractor dealer if furnished cou-
plers are not correct for your particular tractor.) Make
sure hydraulic line is not twisted or kinked.
PTO ADAPTERS SHOULD NOT BE USED WITH
ANY LOCKE TURF EQUIPMENT. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL CAUSE
DRIVELINE FAILURE AND POSSIBLE TRACTOR
DAMAGE.
WARNING
USE A PIECE OF CARDBOARD OR WOOD
RATHER THAN HANDS AND WEAR EYE PRO-
TECTION WHEN SEARCHING FOR HYDRAU-
LIC LEAKS. ESCAPING HYDRAULIC OIL UN-
DER PRESSURE CAN PENETRATE SKIN. IF
OIL IS REMOVED WITHING A FEW HOURS OR
GANGRENE MAY RESULT.
B. Attach jack stand to frame of cutter. Extend jack
stand to support weight of frame.
C. Connect clevis hitch to tractor drawbar using a 1
inch (25 mm) diameter approved pin with lynch pin re-
tainer or equivalent.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3-1 GENERAL
SAFETY
Only qualified people familiar with this operator’s
manual and tractor operator’s manual should oper-
ate this machine. Operator should wear hardhat,
safety glasses and safety shoes. The operator
should read, understand and practice all safety
messages shown on the caution, warning and
danger decals affixed to the mower to avoid seri-
ous injury or death. It is recommended that trac-
tors be equipped with Rollover Protective System
(ROPS) and a seat belt must be used. Before
beginning operation, clear work area of any ob-
jects that may be picked up and thrown, check for
ditches, stumps, holes or other obstacles that
could upset tractor or damage mower. Always
lower mower to ground and allow blades to come
to a complete stop, having set parking brake and
turn off the tractor’s engine before leaving the trac-
tor operator’s seat.
A. Raise the mower off ground enough to remove
caster.
WARNING
THE MOWER CAN FALL FROM HYDRAULIC
SYSTEM FAILURE. TO AVOID SERIOUS IN-
JURY OR DEATH, SECURELY SUPPORT
MOWER BEFORE WORKING UNDERNEATH.
B. Remove pin securing caster stem to caster arm.
Remove caster stem from caster arm.
C. Place amount of spacers on caster stem to give
desired cutting height. With no spacers on the bot-
tom, a 3/4" cutting height is given. (Figure 3-1)
D. Reinstall caster stem into caster arm. Place re-
maining spacers on caster stem above caster arm
and install pin to retain.
E. Repeat operation for all caster wheels. Make cer-
tain all wheels are adjusted to the same height.
NOTE: Before initial operation the MP-3132 and
FP-3132 should be connected to the tractor for a
30-minute “run in” cycle. During the “run in”
phase, the tractor should be operated at only half
throttle. The “run in” cycle is complete, ALL
belts should be inspected for proper tension and
if adjustments are necessary, refer to Mainte-
nance Section.
Figure 3-1
Caster Wheel
Spacers
3-2 CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
The mower should be operated at the highest po-
sition that will give desired cutting results. This will
help prevent blades from striking the ground, re-
ducing blade wear and unnecessary strain on the
machine. Cutting too much material may reduce
mulching action and leave visible clippings on the

When mowing across slopes, yawing or skew-
ing may occur as the mower slips sideways,
which may cause streaking. In this case, mow-
ing up and down slopes should be done to
eliminate skewing.
3-3 OPERATION
A. Perform BEFORE EACH USE maintenance list
in paragraph 4-1.
B. Start tractor. Lower cutter decks until they are
supported by caster wheels and hydraulic cyl-
inders are fully extended to allow mechanical
float to operate. (Figure 3-2)
3-4 TRANSPORTING
IMPORTANT- Before folding for trans-
port, disengage the PTO and wait for
blades to stop. Pull the latch chain to
allow complete folding, then release the
chain to lock decks in the raised posi-
tion. These locks also serve the pur-
pose of limiting the upward flex of the
cutter decks during operation. FOLD-
ING THE DECKS WITH THE PTO’S EN-
GAGED WILL DESTROY THE DRIVE
LINES!
Figure 3-2 Make Sure Cylinders Are Fully Extended To
Allow Decks To Float

Spacing
Install pins into the transport lock positions.
(Figures 3-3 & 3-4) When implement is trans-
ported on road or highway, day or night, use
tractor flashing warning lights unless prohibited
by law. The slow moving vehicle (SMV) sign
must be visible from the rear by approaching
vehicles.
DANGER
STAY CLEAR OF ROTATING DRIVELINE.
DO NOT OPERATE WITHOUT DRIVELINE
SHIELDS IN PLACE AND IN GOOD CONDI-
TION. FAILURE TO HEED THESE WARN-
INGS MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY
OR DEATH.
Figure 3-3 Center Unit Transport Latch
DANGER
STAND CLEAR OF ROTATING CUTTER
BLADES UNTIL ALL MOTION HAS
STOPPED. TO AVOID ACCIDENTAL FALL
AND POSSIBLE INJURY FROM CUTTER,
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT TRACTOR BE
EQUIPPED WITH ROLLOVER PROTEC-
TIVE SYSTEM AND THAT A SEAT BELT
BE USED FOR ALL OPERATIONS
NOTE: The mower deck transport locking
pins provided on the win g sections (Figure
3-4) MUST be removed BEFORE operation.
Failure to remove these locking pins will
result in front caster wheel damage, turf
damage and unacceptable mowing perform-
ance.
C. With tractor at idle speed, engage PTO drive.
Advance throttle to 540 PTO rpm.
D. Place tractor in low gear and begin cutting.
Tractor forward speed should be controlled by
gear selection, not engine speed. For maximum
cutting efficiency, forward speed should allow
mower to maintain a constant maximum blade
speed.
If tractor engine or cutter stalls, do not slip trac-
tor clutch to allow engine to retain speed, as this
will exert undue strain on the implement drive
train. When stalling occurs, disengage PTO
drive, move to a cut area, set tractor throttle to
idle, then re-engage PTO drive.

TIPS ON MOWING WITH A MULCHER
The Locke Turf Mulch Pro is a turf maintenance mower with counter rotating blade sets de-
signed to do a superior job of mulching grass clippings. To obtain the maximum effective-
ness from your Mulch Pro the tips listed below should be followed:
Mow often – In general, mulching operations require more frequent mowing than
would conventional mowing procedures.
Watch your speed – Normal conditions will allow a speed of up to approximately 5
mph, but thick, heavy, damp conditions will require reduced ground speed.
Mow at 540 RPM to keep tip speed at its maximum.
Mow with a clean mower – Avoid grassy build-up under the deck.
Mow with sharp blades – A sharp blade cuts cleaner.
Wet grass will decrease distribution effectiveness and increase horsepower require-
ments. Leaves, on the other hand, may be more effectively mulched when they are
slightly damp.
Mow at higher cutting heights – Remove and mulch no more than 2” – 2-1/2” of
grass length with each mowing. (Experts recommend not cutting off more than 1/3
of the grass blade length at any given time.)
Mow twice, at different height settings, (high, then low), if grass is extra tall.
Remember that horsepower requirements will vary with the mowing conditions such
as type and height of turf grass, moisture content, whether the terrain is flat or hilly,
etc.
The ideal cutting height may be different from other types of mowing equipment you
have used. Initially you should adjust your MP at least 1/2" higher than other types
of equipment. Use a trial and error method to determine if the MP should be ad-
justed lower. Generally it is
best to begin high and work
you way lower.

When installing new blades on the mulching
assembly, make sure that two blades are installed on
the top side of the assembly 180° from each other and
two on the bottom side of the assembly. The blades
must mount on the rotation “pads” for proper operation.
Assemble the (4) new blades to the blade holder using
the blade nuts, bolts and flatwashers. Tighten the
bolts to 45 ft./lbs.

G. Insert the blade bushing in the center of the
mulching assembly so that the bushing flange is on the
top side of the assembly. Slide the mulching assembly
and flanged bushing over the spindle shaft and secure
mulching assembly to the upper blade carrier using the
(4) 3/8” – 16 UNC x 3/4" Gr. 5 bolts and Belleville
washers. Torque all (4) mulching assembly attach-
ing bolts to 31 ft./lbs
CAUTION
WEAR HEAVY WORK GLOVES TO PROTECT
HANDS FROM SHARP EDGES. WHEN TURNING
BLADES, BE AWARE OF OPPOSITE BLADE AP-
PROACHING.
H. Install the blade washer over the spindle
shaft. Install the bottom blade and torque the 1/2" –
20 UNF Gr. 8 bolt to 76 ft./lbs. Note: The concave
side of the Belleville washer must be toward the
blades. Do not substitute with a flatwasher.
A complete spare set of blades comes with the cutter.
The lower blades are pinned on the frame and the up-
per blades are stored in the tool box. (Figure 4-4)
Always replace all (4) blades on an assembly to retain
balance. In addition to replacing blades when they
become worn and dull, they should also be replaced if
the uplift angle on the trailing side of the blade be-
comes worn off. As the angle wears down, the mulch-
ing action deteriorates.
