OPERATION

10.3 Operating the Attached Mower Heads

The boom can attach to and operate multiple heads one at a time for a wide range of vegetation control applications. The attached heads are designed for different applications. The head should be selected based on the mowing application and the location that the unit is being operated.

Refer to the Assembly Section of this manual to ensure the head is properly attached to the boom hitch and hydraulic lines are properly connected. OPS-B- 0010

There are obvious and hidden potential hazards in the operation of this Mower. REMEMBER! This machine is often operated in heavy brush and in heavy weeds. The Blades of this Mower can throw objects if shields are not properly installed and maintained. Serious injury or even death may occur unless care is taken to insure the safety of the operator, bystanders, or passersby in the area. Do not operate this machine with anyone in the immediate area. Stop mowing if anyone is within 100 yards of mower. (SGM-02)

Rotary Cutter

•The Rotary Cutting Head is rated to cut vege- tation up to 5” in diameter.

•Objects tend to be thrown out from under the head in the direction of blade rotation and toward the raised edge of the shroud. Avoid cutting with the head tilted at an angle that objects would be thrown towards the unit operator position.

•When clearing brush and small trees, operate unit at 1 mph ground speed and position cutter head at an angle that will cut 2’ to 3’ into the growth. Make the first pass just above ground level. This will remove the low branches and allow operator a better view of the material to plan for the next pass. After repeated passes,

each elevated approximatly 4’ above the last, the main trunks of the trees will be exposed and they can be cut as desired. This avoids clogging the head with cut and mulched material.

•Open the hydraulically operated door to allow blades to reach large diameter vegetation. Operate the mower with the door closed when cutting grass, weeds, and light brush to reduce thrown objects for safer mower operation.

•When operating near the ground or when mulching be particularly careful that there are no bystanders or animals with a 100 yards. Debri tends to fly out at great speed and can injure or even cause death.
