STOPPING THE SHREDDER

„Before dismounting power unit or performing any service or maintenance, follow these steps: disengage power to equipment, lower the 3-point hitch and all raised components to the ground, operate valve levers to release any hydraulic pres- sure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove key, and unfasten seat belt.

1.Slowly decrease engine speed to low idle.

2.Disengage center cutter’s hydraulic system (if so equipped). Never approach unit until the blade has stopped turning.
