IMPORTANT: Ballast may need to be added to your Skid Steer to maintain steering control and to prevent tipping of the Skid Steer. Refer to your Skid Steer’s operator manual to determine if additional ballast is needed.

Dealer Preparations

Read and understand the operator’s manual for your cutter. An understanding of how it works will aid in the assembly and setup of your cutter.

This Rotary Cutter has been partially assembled at the factory. However, some assembly will be necessary.

It is best to go through the Pre-Assembly Checklist before assembling the cutter. Speed up your assembly task and make the job safer by having all the needed parts and equipment readily at hand.

Ensure that the intended Skid Steer conforms to the requirements stated under the heading “Skid Steer Requirements” on page 9.

Uncrating

!DANGER

Do not remove cutter from crate until after it has been securely supported with an overhead crane, fork lift or other suitable equipment. Cutter can fall and injury someone if crating hardware is removed before properly supporting the deck.

1.Secure deck with an overhead crane, fork lift or other suitable means before cutting shipping support bands and unbolting cutter from shipping crate.

2.Cut bands securing parts bags to the shipping crate.

3.Remove bolts securing hitch to the shipping crate.

4.Cut center band securing hitch to shipping crate.

5.Carefully lower cutter onto its skids or onto support stands capable of supporting the cutter.

6.Remove wood from under the front chain guard.

Pre-Assembly Checklist

All hardware from the factory has been installed. If a part or fastener is temporarily removed for assembly reasons, remember where it goes. Keep parts separated.

Be sure the parts get used in the correct location. By double checking while you assemble, you will lessen the chance of using a bolt incorrectly that may be needed later. Use Parts Manual to identify location of parts you are unsure of where they are used.

All grease fittings are in place and lubricated.

Miscellaneous assembly tools: hammer, tape measure, assortment of wrenches and spirit level.

Have fork lift or loader along with chains and safety stands sized for the job ready for the assembly task.

Auxiliary weights (depending on Skid Steer size).

Have a minimum of 2 people at hand while assembling.

Safety decals are legible and undamaged.

Loose parts bag/box shipped with the Rotary Cutter.

Float Chain Assembly

Refer to Figure 1-1:

1.(Not Shown) Unbolt and remove shipping brace bars extending from hitch plate to center of deck.

2.Attach clevis end (#1) of float chains (#4) to hitch plate with 9/16" clevis pins (#2) and cotter pins (#3). Bend cotter pin legs to keep them from falling out.

3.Install other end of float chains (#4) to deck with 1/2" clevis pins (#5) and 1/8" cotter pins (#6). Bend cotter pin legs to keep them from falling out.
