Tailwheel Height (3-Point)

WARNING

!

To avoid serious injury or death:  
Avoid direct contact with cutter blades by wearing a pair of 

gloves. Cutter blades have sharp edges and burrs that can 

cause injuries. 

If front blade tip is set at the desired cutting height and 
back blade tip is at the same height or lower or is higher 
than the front blade tip by more than 1", then the 
tailwheels must be adjusted up or down as follows:

Ratchet Jack

Refer to Figure 3-3:

Change rear blade height with ratchet jack as follows:

1.

Setting ratchet jack lock and pumping ratchet jack 
lever back and forth until rear blade height is slightly 
higher than front blade tip but by not more than 1". 

Hydraulic Cylinder

Refer to Figure 3-4:

Change rear blade height hydraulically as follows:

1.

With tractor hydraulics, raise cutter fully up.

2. Remove all stroke control spacers (#3) from cylinder 

rod (#1) by spreading spacers apart at the break line. 

3. Using tractor control lever for the hydraulic cylinder, 

lower Rotary Cutter until rear blade height is slightly 
higher than front blade tip but not by more than 1". 

4. Select required size and number of stroke control 

spacers (#3) that will fill the exposed cylinder rod. 
The following spacers are available: 
Two 1" spacers, one 1 1/4" spacer, one 1 1/2" spacer, 
and one 1 3/4" spacer 

5. Return to the tractor and raise Rotary Cutter up. 

Install selected size and number of stroke control 
spacers on the cylinder rod. 

6. Lower Rotary Cutter against stroke control spacers 

and recheck cutting height. If needed, adjust size and 
quantity of stroke control spacers until desired 
cutting height is achieved. 

Center 3-Point Link (3-Point)

Refer to Figure 3-5: 

1.

Lower cutter deck to preset cutting height.

2. For optimum ground contour following performance, 

adjust length of center 3-point link until center hitch 
pin is vertically above lower 3-point hitch pins.

3. Lock center 3-point link in this position.

NOTE: 

Removing spacers (#3) lowers the cutting 

height and adding spacers raises the cutting height.

NOTE: 

 The lower bolted-on-bushing in the center 

hitch is used with a Quick Hitch attachment.
