1. Select a safe ground speed when transporting from
one area to another. Maximum transport speed for
the Rotary Cutter is 20 mph.
DO NOT EXCEED .
2. Be sure to reduce tractor ground speed when turning
and leave enough clearance so the cutter does not
contact obstacles such as buildings, trees or fences.
3. Always raise wing and set transport lock before
traveling on public roadways.
4. When traveling on roadways, transport in such a way
that faster moving vehicles may pass you safely. Use
LED Lights to make yourself more visible on
roadways.
5. Shift tractor to a lower gear when traveling over rough
or hilly terrain.
Road Side Cutting
Land Pride recommends the Rotary Cutter be equipped
with chain guards to stop flying objects when cutting road
sides. Refer to
“Safety Guard” on page 40.
Use the LED flashing lights on the cutter to make yourself
more visible when cutting road sides.
Field Set-up
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Clear area to be cut of debris and other unforeseen removable
objects before cutting. Mark non-removable hazards such as
tree stumps, post stubs, protruding objects, rocks, drop-offs,
holes, etc. with a visible flag.
WARNING
!
To prevent serious injury or death:
The following operational procedures should be carried out
by the tractor operator. Other persons should not be in the
area. All cutter operations including field set-up should be
stopped when other persons are in the vicinity.
IMPORTANT: The Slow Moving Vehicle sign should
not be used when transporting equipment on a truck
or trailer that exceeds speeds of 25 mph. Cover or
remove the sign on equipment being hauled.
IMPORTANT: Cutting should not be done in wet
conditions. Wet material will build up on the deck
underside causing additional power consumption,
high wear, and poor discharge.
Field Inspection
1. Thoroughly inspect area to be cut for debris and
unforeseen objects. Remove all potential hazards
and mark any that cannot be removed.
