CLUTCH WEAR OR FAILURE is not covered under warranty.
Improper operation of the unit will cause the clutch to slip:
a.
When the clutch slips the operator must lift the cutter off the obstruction
immediately.
b.
Clutch must be allowed to cool after slippage.
c.
Excessive ground speed or dull blades will overload the clutch capacity.
d.
Proper clutch setting for horse power of tractor.
e.
Timely replacement of worn clutch discs.
f.
Proper reassembly of slip clutch.
WARNING
NEVER ALLOW BLADES TO COME INTO CONTACT WITH
ROCKS OR STUMPS.
The blades will be forced to glance over the top of the obstruction, causing a tremendous amount of
upwards pressure on the blades, blade bar and output shaft. This pressure can and will cause fatigue,
cracking and possible breakage of the components. NEVER lower blades down onto material, the
same pressures will be applied to the components causing failure.
