Operation/Introduction
The arm system is used for cutting hedges, cutting branches and trees and for grass
cutting around trees, lamp posts or similar.
LRS 1402 is used for cutting branches up to a max. diameter of 100mm, without the
branches being torn. Branches with a diameter exceeding 40 mm must be cut one at a
time.
Vertical cutting is allowed up to a 45 degree angle. Horizontal cutting is possible on
hedges with a width up to 80 cm and a branch diameter up to 20 mm. Thicker
branches might stop the blades and get stuck in the machine.
HL 150 to 180 is used for cutting branches up a max. diameter of 40 mm, without the
branches being torn.
Vertical cutting is allowed up to a 45 degree angle. Horizontal cutting is possible on
hedges with a width up to 70 cm and a branch diameter up to 15 mm. Thicker
branches might stop the blades and get stuck in the machine.
LRS 1402 & HL 150 til 180. It is recommended that forward speed is kept to a
minimum when starting work in order to retain the correct working speed of the blades.
Set the angle of the cutter so it is positioned at right angles to the work and adjust the
machine position so the branches meet the saw blades ‘straight on’.
Wherever possible try to keep the blades running vertical in relation to the direction of
travel, this will help prevent them from ‘distorting’ during operations.
Should small branches, debris or unwanted material get stuck in the blades the
machine and tractor must be switched off and the starting key removed before
attempting to clear the blockage. If necessary, remove the belt cover to gain better
access to the blockage; replace cover immediately before starting or using the
machine.
LRS 1402: Never run the machine without belt cover
mounted.
LRS 1402: Great care must taken when attempting to clear
debris from the blade and/or belt area of the machine; sharp
components and numerous pinch risk points exist in these
locations. Safety gloves and safety eyewear should be worn
and wherever possible the use a suitable tool should be used
to remove any debris to ensure hands and fingers are kept
clear of any risk areas.
LRS 1402 : Never use the machine as a stationary saw for
making firewood.
