FIELD OPERATION

The Woods Flail Shredder is designed with the flexibil- ity to operate well in almost any kind of crop and terrain conditions. However, the operator is responsible for being familiar with all operating and safety procedures and following them. Each operator should review this Field Operation section at the start of the season and as often as required to be familiar with the unit.

Operators should also review the PRE-OPERATION CHECK LIST, page 15, and Attaching Shredder to Tractor, page 17.

„Safety instructions are important! Read all attachment and power unit manuals; follow all safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace- ment manuals and safety decals are available from your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check the Dealer Locator at www.WoodsEquipment.com, or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319- 6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules can result in serious injury or death.

„Never allow children or untrained persons to operate equipment.

„Make sure shields and guards are properly installed and in good condition. Replace if damaged.

„Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from equipment while engine is running. Stay clear of all moving parts.

„Before dismounting power unit or performing any service or maintenance, follow these steps: disengage power to equipment, lower the 3-point hitch and all raised components to the ground, operate valve levers to release any hydraulic pres- sure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove key, and unfasten seat belt.

„Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.

„Do not allow bystanders in the area when oper- ating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servic- ing equipment.

„Inspect and clear area of stones, branches, or other hard objects that might be thrown, causing injury or damage.

„Operators must be instructed in and be capable of the safe operation of the equipment, its attach- ments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to operate this equipment without proper instructions.

„Keep bystanders away from equipment.

„Operate tractor PTO at the rpm speed stated in “Specifications” section.

CAUTION

„Always sit in power unit seat when operating controls or starting engine. Securely fasten seat belt, place transmission in neutral, engage brake, and ensure all other controls are disengaged before starting power unit engine.

„Always comply with all state and local lighting and marking requirements.

„Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head; and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.

PREPARING FOR OPERATION

1.Pull into the field and position the unit in a level area.

2.Lower into operating position.

3.3-Point hitch models: Set the 3-point so the quick hitch is vertical and the floating upper mast is forward.

Flail Height

Set the unit to give a flail height of at least 3 to 6 inches (75 to 150 mm) above the ground. This will minimize the amount of stones and dirt picked up by
