INTRODUCTION
We are pleased to have you as a Bush Hog customer. Your Rotary Cutter has been carefully designed with
care and built with quality materials by skilled workers to give maximum service with minimum down time. This
manual is provided to give you the necessary operating and maintenance instructions for keeping your rotary
cutter in top operating condition. Careful use and timely service saves extensive repairs and costly downtime
losses. Please read this manual thoroughly. Understand what each control is for and how to use it.
Bush Hog typically offers two types of shielding to protect the operator, passerby, livestock, and property from
thrown objects... single chain guards, and double chain guards. Shielding should be selected based on the
intended use of the mower. Double chain guards or deflectors should be used for highway, right-of-way, parks
or greenbelt mowing or all other mowing where human dwellings, vehicles, or livestock could be within 300 feet
of the mower. Chain guards are more durable, provide a longer service life and require less maintenance and
replacement than deflectors. Single chain guards may be sufficient for agriculture and other mower use only
where passersby or property are not within 300 feet of the mower during operation.
No shielding is 100% effective in preventing thrown objects. The possibility of injury and property damage from
this hazard can be substantially reduce by selecting proper shielding, maintaining the mower and shielding in
good operational condition, inspecting the area for foreign debris before mowing, operating the mower at a
minimum cutting height of 6", and keep unprotected persons at a minimum distance of 300 feet from the
mower at all times during operation.
Safety is of primary importance to the owner/operator and to the manufacturer. Observe all safety precautions
decaled on the machine and noted throughout the manual for safe operation of implement. If any assistance or
additional information is needed, contact your authorized Bush Hog dealer. The owner/operator/dealer should
