• First, operate all functions in a clear area with
throttle at low idle to get a good feel for the
controls before you actually move into any
brush.
• Slow cutting speed if pressure surges up close
to max psi, doing this will greatly reduce blade
stoppage.
•
Run throttle only at half speed for first time
users.
• Move the tree saw slowly until you have a
better feel how much the unit can take.
• The machine is equipped with a front push bar
and an angled push bar to push brush or small
trees over. This will allow the tree saw teeth to
contact the lower portion of the brush and the
blade to cut it off.
• For tall brush, you can use the angled push
bar to push the brush over and cut it off close
to ground. Each operator must experiment to
find a technique that works for them in their
application.

Disconnect and lock out power source
before disconnecting and/or connecting
hydraulic hoses�
The tree saw is equipped with three hoses,
pressure, return and case drain. Hydraulic
couplers are not provided with the tree saw. You
must install couplers and connect your skidsteer
pressure, return and case drain hoses to the tree
saw hoses.
Skidsteer hoses must be the same size as the
tree saw hoses. Using smaller diameter hoses will
decrease hydraulic flow.
