4 Introduction
General Information
The purpose of this manual is to assist you in operating and maintaining your rotary cutter for years of service.
Read it carefully. The information and instructions in this manual have been compiled from extensive field
experience and engineering data. Some information may be general in nature due to unknown and varying
operating conditions. However, through experience and these instructions, you should be able to develop
procedures suitable to your particular situation.
The illustrations and data used in this manual were current at the time of printing, but due to possible inline
production changes, your machine may vary slightly in detail. We reserve the right to redesign and change the
machines as may be necessary without notification.
WARNING: Some illustrations in this manual show the rotary cutter with safety shields removed to
provide
a better view. The rotary cutter should never be operated with any safety shielding removed.
Throughout this manual, references are made to right and left direction. These are determined by standing
behind the equipment facing the direction of forward travel. Blade rotation is counter-clockwise as viewed
from the top of the mower.
