OPERATOR TIPS
•
Soil conditions will affect the cutting depth. The ground may need pre-watering. Watering
the day before should be sufficient.
.
•
The grass should be dry to provide adequate traction.
•
There are 4 transport speeds, only 2 cutting speeds. Always use 1 cutting speed until the
operator is familiar with the unit.
•
Terminate cuts by disengaging the engagement handle and driving out of the ground by
holding the throttle open.
•
Cut downhill on unleveled soil. Do not operate on hills exceeding 35% grade.
•
Do not attempt sharp turns with the sod cutter. Do not attempt turns while on a hill.
•
Run the unit while in transport, utilizing the reverse, to prevent premature tire wear on
cement and concrete.

•
After cutting a few feet, stop unit to check depth of cut.

Cut only deep enough to keep the sod intact and not damage the roots.

The depth can be adjusted by turning the depth control knob clockwise for thin and
counterclockwise for thicker cut.
