3-1 GENERAL SAFETY

Only qualified people should operate this machine.

Operator should wear hard hat, safety glasses and

safety shoes. It is recommended that tractor be

equipped with Rollover Protective Systems (ROPS)

and a seat belt be used. Before beginning opera-

tion, clear work area of objects that may be picked

up and thrown. Check for ditches, stumps, holes or

other obstacles that could upset tractor or damage

cutter. Always turn off tractor engine, set parking

brake, and allow cutter blades to come to a complete

stop before dismounting tractor.

3-2 ADJUSTING FOR WORK

The cutter should be operated at the highest position

which will give desired cutting results. This will help

prevent the blades from striking the ground, reducing

blade wear and undue strain on the machine. For

best results under heavier cutting conditions, always

tilt the cutter approximately 2 inches (51mm) lower in

the front. This tilt decreases horsepower require-

ments and increases potential ground speed. When

fine shredding is desired, adjust cutter deck level or

slightly lower in the rear. This will keep the foliage

under cutter until thoroughly shredded. More power

is required for shredding.

The cutting height is adjustable from 2 -12 inches.

To adjust, proceed as follows:
