OPERATION

Use extreme care and Safety Awareness when using the boom mower head to mulch loose brush or wood that has fallen on the ground from overhead trimming. DO NOT mulch this debris if bystanders, vehicles, livestock or buildings are within 300 feet of the mower. This

cut debris can be thrown at great velocities and could result in serious injury or even death. (SBM-17)

Extreme care should be taken when operating near loose objects such as gravel, rocks, wire, and other debris. Inspect the area before mowing. Foreign objects should be removed from the site to prevent machine damage and/or bodily injury or even death. Any objects that cannot be removed must be clearly marked and carefully avoided by the operator. Stop mowing immediately if blades strike a foreign object. Repair all damage and make certain rotor or blade carrier is balanced before resuming mowing.

Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope, or chains, can become entangled in the operating parts of the mower head. These items could then swing outside the housing at greater velocities than the blades. Such a situation is extremely hazardous and could result in serious injury or even death. Inspect the cutting area for such objects before mowing. Remove any like object from the site. Never allow the cutting blades to contact such items.

(SGM-06)

Always keep a careful lookout and use extreme care when working around overhead obstructions. Never allow the Mower head or boom within 10 feet of any power line. When working close to overhead power lines consult your electric company for a safe code of operation.

9.2 Operating the Control Valves

The 2160 has two control valves. One is the on-off switch to the cutter motor and the other is the position control valve.

ON-OFF Switch (Mower Valve) - To operate the mower, pull the switch while the tractor is running. The push- pull operator will remain in the ON position PULLED or the OFF position PUSHED until the operator desires to start or stop the mower. Always start the cutterhead with the tractor at idle.

The operator should not leave his seat with this valve engaged or with the tractor engine running. Allow approximately 60 seconds for the blades to come to rest after turning the switch off before dismounting.
