1.
Attach cutter to skid steer. See Attaching/
Detaching in this section.
2.
Check the area you plan on working for any
large stones or metal objects. Hitting these
objects is very dangerous and will decrease the
life of your blades and the machine in general.
3.
The blades must be free to rotate before you
start hydraulic oil flow. The blades need to be
running at full speed before you start cutting
brush.
4.
If the blades stop rotating, raise deck a few
inches until blades are rotating at full speed.
If blades do not start rotating immediately after
deck has been raised, stop oil flow on skid
steer, lock all controls and check that blades
are able to rotate freely.
5.
If the brush is not as fine as desired, try slowing
your travel speed or continuously travel the
same path until brush is shredded to the
desired level.
6.
When you are finished, stop oil flow and idle
skid steer for a few minutes to allow skid steer
engine to cool before shut down.
