MAN1168 (5/27/2016)
Cutter Operation
When beginning operation of the cutter, make sure that
all persons are in a safe location. Slowly move into the
material with the tractor PTO set at 540 rpm (1000 rpm
on "Q" models).
Mowing Tips
Look down and to the rear and make sure area
is clear before operating in reverse.
Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.
Do not stop, start, or change directions sud-
denly on slopes.
Use extreme care and reduce ground speed on
slopes and rough terrain.
Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during
operation.
Stop power unit and equipment immediately
upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine,
remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before
resuming operation.
Maximum recommended ground speed for cutting or
shredding is 5 miles per hour. Adjust tractor ground
speed by using higher or lower gears to provide a clean
cut without lugging tractor engine.
Tall material should be cut twice. Cut material higher
the first pass. Cut at desired height at 90 degrees the
second pass.
Remember, sharp blades produce cleaner cuts and
use less power.
Before entering an area, analyze it to determine the
best procedure. Consider the height and type of mate-
rial to be cut and the terrain type (hilly, level or rough,
etc.).
TRANSPORTING
The maximum transport speed for towed and
semi-mounted machines is 20 mph (32 km/h).
Regardless of the maximum speed capability of the
towing tractor, do not exceed the implement’s max-
imum transport speed. Doing so could result in:
• Loss of control of the implement and tractor
• Reduced or no ability to stop during braking
• Implement tire failure
• Damage to the implement or its components.
Use additional caution and reduce speed when
under adverse surface conditions, turning, or on
inclines.
Never tow this implement with a motor vehicle.
1.
Always transport with cutter in raised, locked
position.
2.
Raise cutter with hydraulic cylinder.
3.
Rotate transport lock over cylinder rod.
4.
Lower cylinder against transport lock.
5.
To lower cutter for operation, extend hydraulic
cylinder. Rotate transport lock back away from
cylinder rod. Lower to desired cutting height.
