RHINO CY84 HEAVY-DUTY ROTARY MOWER
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Rhino Cyclone 84 (CY84) Heavy-Duty Rotary Mowers are manufactured with quality material by skilled
workers. These rugged mowers are engineered for cutting vegetation up to 3-1/2” diameter in commercial,
industrial, and agriculture applications such as mowing rights-of-way, roadsides, and pastures. The mower is
equipped with protective safety deflectors and/or chain guards to prevent objects being thrown by blades,
however, no shielding is 100% effective. All shields, deflector’s, and chains equipped on the unit must be
maintained on the mower in good operational condition.
It is the operator’s responsibility to be knowledgeable of all operating hazards and to take every reasonable
precaution to ensure oneself, others, animals, and property are not injured or damaged by the mower, tractor,
or a thrown object. Do Not operate the mower if passersby, pets, livestock, or property are directly in front or to
the rear of the unit.
This section is designed to familiarize, instruct, and educate safe and proper mower use to the operator.
Pictures contained in this section are intended to be used as a visual aid to assist in explaining the operation of
a rotary mower and are not necessarily of a CY84 mower. Some pictures may show shields removed for
purposes of clarity. NEVER OPERATE this implement without all shields in place and in good operational
condition. The operator must be familiar with the mower and tractor operation and all associated safety
practices before operating the mower and tractor. Proper operation of the CY84 mower, as detailed in this
manual, will help ensure years of safe and satisfactory use of the mower.
