CUTTING POSITION
The cutting head must at all times must be lowered gently into the work position. Never drop the head into a
hedge at speed.
When cutting at ground level (grass etc) the head must be lowered gently to give a slight contact pressure of
roller to ground.
IMPORTANT: Ensure rotor and roller do not get involved in high obstacle forces such as rocks,
stones, stumps etc. Keep rotor away and free from wire, as to entangle wire into the
rotor can be very dangerous.
Should large obstacles be encountered or wire becomes entangled in the rotor STOP
IMMEDIATELY. Reset or clear before restarting. DO NOT RUN ROTOR IN
REVERSE DIRECTION TO CLEAR ITS SELF. Disengage PTO, stop tractor engine
and remove ignition key before attempting to unblock or free a rotor.
Normal obstacles and level variations should be overcome by the operator reducing
speed and raising or lowering the arms of the machine to suit.
CUTTING HEAD
The rotor shaft has been balanced prior to fitting and this will ensure a vibration free cutting unit.
Should the rotor become blocked, hit an obstacle or loose a flail it may become unbalanced. This will result in
vibration being transmitted through the head.
Should this happen STOP IMMEDATELY, to continue could have serious consequences.
Once stopped clean rotor and check for loss of flails or bolts and replace if required.
In serious cases and as a result of hitting solid objects the rotor can be bent, this will obviously cause
vibrations. In such cases the only answer will be to get the rotor shaft repaired and rebalanced or fit a
replacement shaft.
