Rotary Cutter
• The Rotary Cutting Head is rated to cut bush
and foliage up to 4” in diameter.
• Objects tend to be thrown out from under the
head in the direction of blade rotation and
toward the raised edge of the shroud. Avoid
cutting with the head tilted at an angle that
objects would be thrown towards the unit oper-
ator position.
• It is recommended that the direction of cutting
should always be such that the blades are cut-
ting away from the operator at the point where
the material first enters the machine.
• When clearing brush and small trees, operate
unit at 1 mph ground speed and position cutter
head at an angle that will cut 2’ to 3’ into the
growth. Make the first pass just above ground level. This will remove the low branches and allow operator
a better view of the material to plan for the next pass. After repeated passes, each elevated approximately
4’ above the last, the main trunks of the trees will be exposed and they can be cut as desired. This avoids
clogging the head with cut and mulched material.
• Open the hydraulically operated door to allow blades to reach large diameter vegetation. Operate the
mower with the door closed when cutting grass, weeds, and light brush to reduce thrown objects for safer
mower operation.
• When operating near the ground or when mulching be particularly careful that there are no bystanders or
animals within 300 feet. Debris tends to fly out at great speed and can injure or even cause death.
Side Skids
The side skids have 2 mounting positions allowing the machine to cut at a height of either 2" (50mm) or 3"
(75mm). Altering the cutting height is by selection of either the upper or lower skid mounting holes on the main
frame; ensure that the same hole positions are selected on both sides of the machine. Never attempt to use
the machine without skids fitted or with the skids mounted at different heights.
Pivoted Mounting
The mounting bracket is pivoted to permit the unit deviation from the horizontal by ±4°; this allows the machine
to follow the contours of the terrain on ground cutting work, thus providing a cleaner finish.
