INTRODUCTION
These mowers are available in lift-type models only. These rugged Mowers are designed for medium-duty
work. They can mow pastures, cut brush up to 2" in diameter, and control grass and weeds on highways or
industrial sites.
For Non-Agricultural use, OSHA, ASAE, SAE, and ANSI standards require the use of Chain
Guards or Solid Skirts at all times. The Cutter manufacturer strongly recommends the use of
Chain Guards or Solid Skirts for Agricultural purposes as well, to reduce the risk of property
damage, serious bodily injury, or even death from objects thrown out by or from contact with the
Cutting Blades.
The TW60 requires a tractor with a minimum of 30 HP and the TW72 requires a minimum of 40 HP with
adequate front end weight.
At least 20% or the tractor’s weight must be on the front tires with the implement lifted to provide
adequate traction for safe steering under good conditions. Slow down on hills, rough terrain,
and curves.
Front and rear, and left and right are determined by the normal direction of travel (the same as on your
automobile).
