Assembly Instructions
The shredder blades are assembled at the factory if
purchased with the Rotary Cutter. If purchased later, the
shredder blades will require assembly. The following
safety precautions should be adhered to during
assembly.
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Always disconnect driveline from the tractor and secure
implement in the up position with solid, non-concrete
supports before servicing the underside. A person can
become entangled in the drivetrain if the tractor is started
and power take-off is engaged or crushed by an
unsupported implement.
•
Always secure equipment with solid, non-concrete supports
before working under it. Never go under equipment
supported by concrete blocks or hydraulics. Concrete can
break, hydraulic lines can burst, and/or hydraulic controls
can be actuated even when power to hydraulics is off.
1. Raise wings fully up and lock into position with
transport locks.
2. Raise deck fully up and place support jacks under
the four corners of the center deck. Lower center
deck onto the support jacks.
3. Place tractor gear selector in park or set brake, shut
engine off and remove ignition key.
4. Disconnect main driveline from tractor power take-
off.
Removal of Existing Blade Carriers
Refer to Figure 4-5
1. Remove cotter pin (A), slotted hex nut (B), flat washer
(C), and blade carrier assembly (E) from all three
gearbox spindles.
2. Keep removed hardware (A, B & C) for assembly of
shredder blades. Store blade carrier assemblies (E)
in a clean dry location. Inside storage is best.
NOTE: The double stacked blade configuration on
the shredder blade kit is ideal for cutting residue into
smaller pieces.
