Be aware when cutting standing trees as there is a potential for
treetops to fall onto the operator’s cab.
BASE CUT
OPERATING YOUR DRUM MULCHER
Use to cut trees at their base, push over, and process on the ground.
•
Pitch the mulcher back slightly to engage the drum into the tree.
•
Drive forward to engage the tree with the drum.
•
Tip forward using the push bar to guide the tree away from the carrier.
•
Tree tops should fall forward away from the carrier, ready for mulching.
•
For very large trees, notch it (similar to using a chainsaw), and approach
them from the other side to cut and drop the tree.
