MULTICUT 160/200
15
Operation
Engage the PTO only when the tractor engine is at low revs to prevent shock damage
to the machine. Slowly increase the engine revs to achieve the standard 540rpm PTO
speed.
If at any time serious vibration occurs, stop the engine
immediately and check
that no blades are missing
- following all safety precautions. The cause must be found
and rectified immediately or other components may be affected.
When in work, lower the machine to the ground carrying all its weight on the
skids/wheel, allowing the machine to follow the contours of the ground and ensuring
there is sufficient slack in the wire ropes. Select a sensible forward speed bearing in
mind the density of growth, the terrain, and the available horsepower, taking extra care
when turning, particularly on slopes.
When turning, it is not necessary to lift the machine off the ground but instead allow
sufficient room to turn in a large radius. The machine only needs to be raised when
turning in a tight corner or reversing over dense undergrowth or when operating on the
front linkage.
The machine is fitted with, as standard, 3 high lift blades complete with fin, to aid
spreading/mulching.
Transportation
Please observe Public Highway Regulations concerning the towing of implements, and
securely attach a registration and lighting board. Take care to slow when travelling over
rough ground and avoid bouncing machine on linkage causing unnecessary strain.
