Running Your Attachment
The K4080 brush mower is designed to cut all types of vegetation such as grass, brush
and small trees. The condition of your terrain and the material to be cut should be
evaluated for the best results.
House Rotation Mowing
Brush on flat terrain can be cut by rotating the house
control from side-to-side and keeping the cutter head
just above ground level, moving the excavator for-
ward 40” at a time into uncut material.
Side Mowing
Another technique is to place the cutter head next to
the machine and drive forward keeping the head
near the road’s shoulder or edge of what you are cut-
ting around.
Top Down Mowing
The last way of operation is to start at the top and
work toward the ground. Raise the boom all the way
up and curl it away from you. This will allow the
head to be inverted and trim tree canopies. Then
swing the head from side to side in the vertical posi-
tion to trim the sides of trees. Finally, position the
head parallel to the ground to completely mulch the
branches and grass, eliminating any clean-up by
hand crews.
Brush cutting covers a wide range of conditions
and is more dangerous than mowing because of
the hidden objects. For this application, be sure
to feed large diameter branches or thick brush
into the side of the shredder where the blades
are hitting down. To reduce discharge, move
into uncut material with the discharge side of the
brush mower. This reduces debris throw signifi-
cantly. Never allow observers within 150’ of the
brush mowing operation.
