DANGER
Engage parking brake, disengage power to the cutter, shut off
Skid Steer, remove key and ensure that all moving parts have
come to a complete stop before dismounting from the Skid
Steer.
IMPORTANT: The blades should be positioned to cut
material only at the front of the cutter. If the deck is
level or the rear of the cutter is lower than the front,
then the blades are subject to continuous material
flow resulting in cutting clumps at the discharge chute,
horsepower loss, high blade wear, and frequent blade
sharpening.
NOTE: Nominal Cutting Height is the distance
from bottom of cutter blade to ground level at the
front of the cutter. Subtract 1 1/2" from Nominal
Cutting Height to determine distance (A). Distance
(A) is measured from bottom of front skid shoes to
ground level.
1. Park Skid Steer with cutter on a level surface.
2. Use Skid Steer hydraulics to lower Skid Steer lift arms
and to tilt cutter hitch plate angle until bottom of skid
shoe at the front deck corner is dimension (A) off the
ground and the rear deck corner is slightly higher than
the front deck corner.
The Rotary Cutter should be operated with float chain
tight to hold the front of the cutter at the correct cutting
height and lift arms set to hold the rear of the cutter
slightly higher off the ground than the front. As the
operator travels over uneven terrain, the Skid Steer hitch
plate tilt angle and lift arm height will need readjusting
often to maintain correct deck positioning.
