Equipment Clearances
Visually inspect hydraulic hoses for possible pinch points
and length. Make any necessary adjustments before
putting equipment into service.
1.
If necessary, have someone stand nearby that can
motion for the operator to stop if a problem develops
while checking for clearances.
2. With deck lowered to its minimum cutting height,
slowly tilt the hitch plate back raising the front of the
cutter while watching for interferences between the
skid steer and cutter. Make sure hydraulic hoses are
long enough and do not become pinched through the
full range of motion.
3. With hydraulic cylinders still retracted, slowly raise
loader arms up while continuing to watch for
interferences between the skid steer and cutter until
height adjustment safety chain limit is reached.
4. Slowly tilt the hitch plate forward until the front of the
deck is touching the ground.
5. Tilt hitch plate back until the deck looks parallel with
the ground.
6. Slowly lower deck down while retracting hydraulic
cylinders on end of loader arms until deck is level and
resting on the ground.
7.
Be sure to make any necessary corrections to the
hydraulic hoses before putting cutter into service.
