4.5 Blade Holder Removal
Removal Procedure - Brush Cutter Attached to Skid Steer
1. Raise the skid steer arms and install skid steer lift arm lock.
2. Shut off hydraulic flow to the brush cutter, and release pressure from the auxiliary
hydraulic circuit.
3. Turn off skid steer engine, SET parking brake, and CHOCK skid steer tracks/tires to
prevent skid steer from moving.
4. Secure the front end of the cutter deck by using an overhead hoist and chain.
5. Place a rated lift under the blade holder.
6. Remove the six 3/4 inch diameter hex bolts that secure the holder to the gearbox
shaft and let the blade holder rest onto the lift. If the blade holder fails to seperate,
use a wedge breaker tool to help seperate the blade holder from the gearbox flange.
To prevent a crushing death by the skid steer arms, a lift arm lock must be
installed on the skid steer hydraulic piston by a second person before the
operator can exit the skid steer cab. Refer to your skid steer operator’s manual
for lift arm lock installation procedures.
