RHINO CY60/72 HEAVY-DUTY ROTARY MOWER
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Rhino Cyclone 60 and 72 (CY60/72) Heavy-Duty Rotary Mowers are manufactured with quality material by
skilled workers. These rugged mowers are engineered for cutting vegetation up to 3” 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 potential 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
within 300 feet of the unit.
This section of the Operator’s Manual is designed to familiarize, instruct, and educate safe and proper cutter
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 of a CY60/72 mower. Some pictures 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 CY60/72, as detailed in this
manual, will help ensure years of safe and satisfactory use of the mower.
IMPORTANT: To avoid mower damage, retorque all bolts after the first 10 hours of operation. Refer to the
Torque Chart at the end of the Maintenance Section to ensure bolts are properly tightened.
