OPERATION
Rotary Cutter
• The Rotary Cutting Head is rated to cut
vegetation up to 5” in diameter.
• Objects tend to be thrown out from under the
head in the direction of blade rotation and
toward the raised edge of the shroud. Avoid
cutting with the head tilted at an angle that
objects would be thrown towards the unit
operator position.
• When clearing brush and small trees, operate
unit at 1 mph ground speed and position cutter
head at an angle that will cut 2’ to 3’ into the
growth. Make the first pass just above ground
level. This will remove the low branches and
allow operator a better view of the material to
plan for the next pass. After repeated passes,
each elevated approximatly 4’ above the last, the main trunks of the trees will be exposed and they can be
cut as desired. This avoids clogging the head with cut and mulched material.
• Open the hydraulically operated door to allow blades to reach large diameter vegetation. Operate the
mower with the door closed when cutting grass, weeds, and light brush to reduce thrown objects for safer
mower operation.
• When operating near the ground or when mulching be particularly careful that there are no bystanders or
animals with a 100 yards. Debri tends to fly out at great speed and can injure or even cause death.

Grass Flail
• The Grass Flail head is rated for cutting grass
only.
• The Grass Flail operates attached to the boom
arm, and is ideal for cutting hard to reach
areas where a smooth cut is required.
• Cutting height ranges from 3/4” to 4” in
vegetation. Cutting height is set by adjusting
the height of the roller assembly.
• When operating near the ground or when
mulching be particularly careful that there are
no bystanders or animals with a 100 yards.
Debri tends to fly out at great speed and can
injure or even cause death.
