DANGER!
Rotary Cutters have the ability to discharge objects at high
speeds; therefore, the use of front and rear safety guards is
strongly recommended when cutting along highways and in
areas where people may be present.
Land Pride offers three types of safety guards to best suit
your application. They are the rubber guard, single chain
guard and double chain guard. The rubber guard is
designed for light duty applications. The single chain
guard is designed to handle heavier applications where
the cutter blades contact solid, dense objects capable of
tearing through the rubber. Double chain guards provide
the highest degree of protection against objects being
thrown.

It is best to operate the Rotary Cutter when no one
is around except the operator.

Independently Controlled Deck Wings
Land Pride offers a kit for raising the deck wings
independently to clear small obstacles in the field without
maneuvering around them. Your tractor will require three
duplex outlets to raise the wings independently. If
needed, you can add duplex outlets to your tractor by
purchasing Land Pride’s 3 Spool Control Valve Kit or their
Selector Control Valve Kit. See “Duplex outlets” below if
additional outlets are required.

Duplex outlets
Some tractors do not have enough duplex outlets to
handle the equipment connected the tractor. Land Pride
offers the following kits to add duplex outlets to your
tractor.
3 Spool Control Valve Kit: This kit is for tractors with a
single duplex outlet. It converts the single duplex outlet
into three duplex outlets with three hydraulic controlled
levers.
Selector Control Valve Kit: This kit is for tractors
needing only one additional duplex outlet. It converts one
of the tractor’s duplex outlets into two duplex outlets with
a control valve. A selector switch on the control valve
selects which of the two duplex outlets is operational with
the tractor hydraulic control lever.
See your local Land Pride dealer if your tractor is not
properly equipped with the correct number of duplex
outlets.

IMPORTANT: Never operate this cutter under any
terrain conditions where, on a continuous cut, the
wing angle exceeds 45 degrees up. Damage to the
wing driveline and gearboxes can occur. Raise wing
only to clear obstacles and then lower the wing
immediately after clearing the obstacles.
Follow all safety precautions in this manual
especially information regarding raising the wings up
with PTO running.
