LUMBERJACK 60/72 HEAVY-DUTY TREE CUTTERS

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

Rhino Lumberjack 60 and Lumberjack 72 (LJ60/72) Heavy-Duty Tree Cutters are manufactured with quality material by skilled workers. Lumberjack cutters are engineered to cut vegetative material that a properly rated tractor can drive over (up to about 3” in diameter) and larger vegetation (up to 6” maximum diameter) by raising the retractable rear door and backing the cutter into the material. The cutter is equipped with protective shielding to prevent objects being thrown by blades, however, no shielding is 100% effective. All shields, guards, deflectors, and chain guards equipped on the unit must be maintained on the cutter in good operational condition.

It is the operator’s responsibility to be knowledgeable of all potential operating hazards and to take every reasonable precaution to ensure oneself, others, animals, and property are not injured or damaged by the cutter, tractor, or a thrown object. The cutter must be operated with the retractable rear door in the lowered position if bystanders, livestock, pets, or property come within 100 yards of the unit and should not be operated if such items are positioned directly in front of or to the rear of the unit.

This section of the Operator’s Manual is designed to familiarize, instruct, and educate safe and proper cutter use to the operator. Pictures contained in this section are intended to be used as a visual aid to to assist in explaining the operation of a rotary mower and and are not of a LJ60/72 cutter. Some pictures may show shields removed for purposes of clarity. NEVER OPERATE this implement without all shields in place and in good operational condition. The operator must be familiar with the cutter and tractor operation and all associated safety practices before operating the cutter and tractor. Proper operation of the LJ60/72, as detailed in this manual, will help ensure years of safe and satisfactory use of the cutter.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the cutter, retorque all bolts after the first 10 hours of operation. Retorque blade carrier retaining nuts to 425 ft. lbs.
