Cutter Operation

Using Choke Chains (Optional) - Not a factory supplied option.
Choke chains are lengths of chain that attach
from the tractor ROPS to the lift pins of the
cutter unit. The chains are intended to hold
the weight of the unit, insuring that the front
of the cutter remains at a fixed alti tude above
the ground and removing the weight of the
unit from the tractor’s lift arms.
Choke chains attach to the outside of the cut-
ter unit’s lift pins, after the tractor’s lift arms
have been properly attached to the unit. The
chains’ hitch plates are then secured in place
by the existing spring-clip pins in the unit’s
lift pins.
The chain system consists of two
lengths of suitable chain, each with
one end terminating in a hitch plate.
A bracket attached to each side of the
tractor’s ROPS holds the other ends
of the choke chains taut in slots milled
to the width of a chain link. Choke
chain length is adjustable by choosing
which chain link is inserted into the
retention slots of the ROPS brackets;
fine-tuning of the chain lengths may
be performed by twisting the chains
before securing the chains into their
retention slots on the ROPS brackets.
