OPERATION

Stay alert and watch for trees, low hanging limbs, power lines, and other overhead obstacles and solid ground objects while you are operating. Use care to avoid hitting these items.

Do not cut, or drive the tractor into, material that is burning, or areas that recently burnt and may contain hot spots. Burning material, sparks, and coals could be thrown from the cutter to areas of vegetation that might ignite. Tire damage can occur when driving over hot material. Oil and grease on the tractor and cutter could ignite resulting in equipment destruction. Carry a fire extinguisher on the tractor at all times to extinguish possible fires encountered.

10.6 Shutting Down the Cutter

To shut down the cutter, first bring the tractor to a complete stop. Then slow down the cutter by reducing the engine speed before disengaging the PTO. Wait for all rotating motion to stop before proceeding to drive or shut down the tractor. The momentum created by the blade carrier weight and lack of resistance resulting from the over-running clutch result in the blades turning for an extended period of time after the PTO had been disengaged.

Park the tractor on a level surface, place the transmission in park or neutral and apply the parking brake, lower the attached cutter to the ground, shut down the engine, remove the key, and wait for all motion to come to a complete stop. Push and pull the hydraulic remote control lever several times to relieve hydraulic pressure before exiting the tractor.
