Operating Instructions
Before engaging your PTO, lift the cutter about one foot above the ground to ensure the
blades are free to rotate. As you engage your PTO, your tractor engine may try to stall or lug down.
If this happens, ease or bump your PTO lever in and out of gear quickly. This will give the blades
time to start turning without slipping the clutch in your tractor. Continue to quickly engage and
disengage your PTO lever, until the Tree Cutter blades gain speed to match the speed of your tractor
engine. This procedure will greatly increase the life of your tractor’s internal clutch pack. Repeat
this each time you start up your Tree Cutter.
After your Tree Cutter has reached operating speed you may notice a small amount of
vibration, this is normal.
!Notice:
If there is enough vibration to shake the A-Frame of the unit in a violent manner, the unit
should be shut down. Refer to the troubleshooting guide of this manual or call the factory for help at
1.800.633.8909.
Your Brown Tree Cutter has been designed to cut anything that your properly rated tractor
can drive over (grass, brush, small trees up to about 3 inches in diameter). For larger material, up to
6 inch diameter material on the 145 horsepower model and 8 inch diameter material on the 165/240
horsepower models, back into the material (on folding deck models the hydraulic deck should be
opened before backing into the material). Any trees larger than this are too large for the Tree Cutter
and should not be cut with this machine.
Warning!
Trees can fall in any direction, it is the operator’s responsibility to be sure
the area is safe and clear.
Refer to the warranty section of this manual for the warranty statement on
misuse of the Tree Cutter.
When the Tree Cutter is cutting large diameter trees it is very important to keep the cutter
deck level. If the cutter deck is not level, its ability to cut is greatly reduced. There is a tremendous
amount of pressure applied to the blades. The blades are making contact with the tree on an elevated
angle. The blades must be level in relationship to the ground. If not level the pressure can cause the
blades to bend or break, possibly causing serious injury or death. (SEE DRAWING BELOW)
NOTICE:
The folding decks should only be opened when a 300 ft. area around the unit is clear of
all discharge concerns i.e. cars, house, crew personnel and bystanders.
