SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
PREPARATION
Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped
out by an operator’s single careless act.
ꢀ Check that all hardware is properly installed.
Always tighten to torque chart specifications
unless instructed otherwise in this manual.
In addition to the design and configuration of
ꢀ Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic oper-
ation and allows loads or equipment components
to drop unexpectedly. When connecting equipment
or hoses or performing any hydraulic maintenance,
purge any air in hydraulic system by operating all
hydraulic functions several times. Do this before
putting into service or allowing anyone to
approach the equipment.
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-
tion are dependent upon the awareness, con-
cern, judgement, and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance, and storage of equipment.
It has been said, “The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be
that kind of operator.
ꢀ Make sure all hydraulic hoses, fittings, and
valves are in good condition and not leaking before
starting power unit or using equipment. Check and
route hoses carefully to prevent damage. Hoses
must not be twisted, bent sharply, kinked, frayed,
pinched, or come into contact with any moving
parts. Operate moveable components through full
operational range to check clearances. Replace
any damaged hoses immediately.
TRAINING
ꢀ Safety instructions are important! Read all
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all
safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace-
ment manuals and safety decals are available from
your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check
or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319-
6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules
can result in serious injury or death.
ꢀ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
ꢀ If you do not understand any part of this manual
and need assistance, see your dealer.
ꢀ Know your controls and how to stop engine and
attachment quickly in an emergency.
ꢀ Make sure attachment is properly secured,
adjusted, and in good operating condition.
ꢀ Operators must be instructed in and be capable
of the safe operation of the equipment, its attach-
ments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to
operate this equipment without proper instruc-
tions.
ꢀ Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar
slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO
spline groove.
ꢀ Make sure driveline guard tether chains are
attached to the tractor and equipment as shown in
the pamphlet that accompanies the driveline.
Replace if damaged or broken. Check that driveline
guards rotate freely on driveline before putting
equipment into service.
ꢀ Keep hands and body away from pressurized
lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other
body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles.
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate
skin and will cause serious injury or death.
ꢀ Make sure that all operating and service person-
nel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it
must be surgically removed as soon as possible by
a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gan-
grene, serious injury, or death will result. CON-
TACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID
ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.
ꢀ Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or
ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely
fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death
from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable
ROPS system in “locked up” position at all times.
ꢀ Inspect chain or rubber belt shielding before
each use. Replace if damaged.
ꢀ Never allow children or untrained persons to
operate equipment.

SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
(Safety Rules continued from previous page)
ꢀ Always comply with all state and local lighting
and marking requirements.
ꢀ Remove accumulated debris from this equip-
ment, power unit, and engine to avoid fire hazard.
ꢀ Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.
ꢀ Make sure all safety decals are installed.
Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for
location.)
ꢀ Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or
ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely
fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death
from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable
ROPS system in “locked up” position at all times.
ꢀ Make sure shields and guards are properly
installed and in good condition. Replace if dam-
aged.
ꢀ Always sit in power unit seat when operating
controls or starting engine. Securely fasten seat
belt, place transmission in neutral, engage brake,
and ensure all other controls are disengaged
before starting power unit engine.
ꢀ Do not put this equipment into service unless all
side skids are properly installed and in good condi-
tion. Replace if damaged.
ꢀ A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment
weight must be on the tractor front wheels when
attachments are in transport position. Without this
weight, tractor could tip over, causing personal
injury or death. The weight may be attained with
front wheel weights, ballast in tires or front tractor
weights. Weigh the tractor and equipment. Do not
estimate.
ꢀ Operate tractor PTO at 540 RPM (1000 RPM on Q
Series cutters). Do not exceed.
ꢀ Look down and to the rear and make sure area
is clear before operating in reverse.
ꢀ Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.
ꢀ Do not stop, start, or change directions sud-
denly on slopes.
ꢀ Inspect and clear area of stones, branches, or
other hard objects that might be thrown, causing
injury or damage.
ꢀ Use extreme care and reduce ground speed on
slopes and rough terrain.
OPERATION
ꢀ Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during
operation.
ꢀ Full chain or rubber shielding must be installed

when anyone comes within 300 feet (92 m).
• This shielding is designed to reduce the risk
of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec-
tive devices cannot prevent all objects from
escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing
condition. It is possible for objects to ricochet
and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).
ꢀ Leak down or failure of mechanical or hydraulic
system can cause equipment to drop.
ꢀ On pull-type or semi-mounted units with
optional hydraulic cutting height adjustment, use a
single-acting cylinder with a maximum extended

when anyone comes within 300 feet (92 m).
• This shielding is designed to reduce the risk
of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec-
tive devices cannot prevent all objects from
escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing
condition. It is possible for objects to ricochet
and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).

ꢀ Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.
NOTICE
■ For tractors with a 1-3/8" diameter PTO shaft,
the horizontal distance from end of tractor PTO
shaft to center of drawbar pin should be 14" for the
540 rpm cutter and 16" for the 1000 rpm cutter.
Tractors with a 1-3/4" 20-spline PTO shaft should
be set to 20". This will minimize joint knock and
damage to drive components.
ꢀ Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar
slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO
spline groove.
ꢀ Operate tractor PTO at 540 RPM (1000 RPM on Q
Series cutters). Do not exceed.
ꢀ Do not allow bystanders in the area when oper-
ating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servic-
ing equipment.
1. Adjust tractor drawbar to obtain the desired
drawbar-to-hitch-point distance.
ꢀ Stop power unit and equipment immediately
upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine,
remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before
resuming operation.
NOTE: On some tractors, a drawbar kit must be
used to obtain the required dimension. Check with
your tractor dealer for assistance.
2. Attach parking jack to cutter tongue. Raise tongue
to tractor drawbar height.
CAUTION
3. Secure cutter to tractor drawbar with a high-
strength drawbar pin 3/4” or larger. Keep pin in
place during operation.
ꢀ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.

Before attaching tractor to cutter, install sway blocks or
sway chains, or adjust stabilizer bars. Refer to the trac-
tor operator's manual for instructions.
8. Attach drive shaft shield to bearing housing using
two 3/8 x 1 cap screws and 3/8 lock washers.
Install tractor front end weights as recommended by
the tractor manufacturer to provide 20% of weight on
front wheels.
Hydraulic Connection
1. Inspect hydraulic hoses to ensure they are in good
condition.
2. Clean the fittings before connecting them to the
tractor hydraulic ports.
ꢀ A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment
weight must be on the tractor front wheels when
attachments are in transport position. Without this
weight, tractor could tip over, causing personal
injury or death. The weight may be attained with
front wheel weights, ballast in tires or front tractor
weights. Weigh the tractor and equipment. Do not
estimate.
3. Attach the hydraulic hose from the cutter to the
tractor.
4. Route the hose through the hose holder on H-
frame and be sure the hose can slide freely in the
holder. Do not allow hose slack to drag on the
ground or become caught on tractor protrusions.
5. From the operator position, start tractor and raise
and lower deck several times to purge trapped air
from the hydraulic cylinder.
Interference Check
1. Be sure that tractor 3-point lift links do not interfere
with hydraulic hoses, cutter driveline, or cutter
frame.
2. Check for straight-ahead operation and at full-
turning angles. If there is any interference, remove
the lower lift links.
3. Contact between tractor lift links and cutter parts
can cause damage, especially when turning.
Turning Limits for Optional CV Driveline
You must not exceed a turning angle of 80 degrees at
the head of the Constant Velocity driveline or damage
will occur.

Cutting height range is from 2" to 13". A hydraulic cylin-
der or ratchet jack is available for cutting height adjust-
ment.
When selecting a cutting height, you should consider
the area of operation. If the ground is rolling and has
mounds the blades could contact, set the cutting height
accordingly.
NOTICE
■ Avoid ground contact with blades. Striking
ground with blades produces one of the most dam-
aging shock loads a cutter can encounter. If this
occurs repeatedly, the cutter, driveline, and gear-
boxes will be damaged.

Adjust top link to provide 2 inches of clearance
between the break link (2) and the rear of the lift links.
See Figure 8. This clearance will allow the cutter to
float over uneven terrain.
TRACTOR OPERATION
Use care when operating around tree limbs and other
low objects.
Use care and reduce ground speed on rough terrain.
Always watch for hidden hazards.
ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT (PULL-TYPE)
Normal Mowing
Being knocked off or falling off tractor can result in seri-
ous injury or death.
For the most economical power use and best cutting
results, the cutter should be from 1/2" to 3/4" higher at
the rear than at the front.
Only use a tractor with a Roll Over Protective Structure
(ROPS) and seat belt. Securely fasten seat belt before
starting tractor.
For grass and weed mowing, adjust cutter to run level
or with the front slightly lower.
The cutter is operated with tractor controls. Engage the
PTO at a low rpm to prevent excessive loads on the
cutter drive system. Increase throttle to proper PTO
speed (540 rpm or 1000 rpm).
Shredding
For shredding, it is better to set rear of cutter slightly
lower than the front. How much lower depends on the
material to be shredded. Determine the best setting for
your situation by experimenting. Use a slow ground
speed for better shredding.
Be sure operator is familiar with all controls and can
stop tractor and cutter quickly in an emergency. The
operator should give complete, undivided attention to
operating tractor and cutter.
OPERATING TECHNIQUE
DRIVELINE ADJUSTMENT (PULL-TYPE)
Power for operating the cutter is supplied by the tractor
PTO. Operate PTO at 540 rpm (1000 rpm on "Q" mod-
els). Know how to stop the tractor and cutter quickly in
an emergency.
With the cutting height established, adjust the driveline
carrier bearings in the H-frames so that the front drive-
line is parallel to the ground with cutter in cutting posi-
tion.
Engage PTO at a low engine rpm to minimize stress on
the drive system and gearbox. With PTO engaged,
raise PTO speed to 540 rpm (1000 rpm on "Q" models)
and maintain throughout cutting operation.
WHEEL SPACING
Wheels may be adjusted to any position for row crop
shredding.
Gearbox protection is provided by a slip clutch with
replacement fiber disc. The slip clutch is designed to
slip when excessive torsional loads occur.
BLADE SELECTION
There are two blade options: standard suction blades
and flat double-edge blades.
Move slowly into material. Adjust tractor ground speed
to provide a clean cut without lugging the tractor
engine. Use a slow ground speed for better shredding.
The standard suction blade is a general use, multi-pur-
pose blade.
Proper ground speed will depend on the terrain and the
material’s height, type, and density.
The double-edge blade requires less power because it
does not mulch or recut material. It is designed for use
in areas where blade wear is a problem. Sandy soils
are extremely hard on blades.
Normally, ground speed will range from 2 to 5 mph.
Tall, dense material should be cut at a low speed; thin,
medium-height material can be cut at a faster ground
speed.
Blade rotation, viewed from top of cutter, is clockwise
for the right crossbar, and counter-clockwise for the left
crossbar.
Always operate tractor PTO at proper rpm (540 or
1000) to maintain blade speed and to produce a clean
cut.
When one cutting surface of a double-edge blade is
worn, the opposite one may be used by placing the
blade on a crossbar of the opposite rotation. Blades
from the right may be used on the left. Blades from the
left may be used on the right.
Under certain conditions tractor tires may roll down
some grass and prevent cutting at the same height as
the surrounding area. When this occurs, reduce your
ground speed but maintain PTO at 540 rpm (1000 rpm
on "Q" models). The lower ground speed will permit
grass to rebound partially.
Blades must be moved in pairs. Never use one new
blade and one used blade on a crossbar.

• Reduced or no ability to stop during braking
• Implement tire failure
Cutter Operation
When beginning operation of the cutter, make sure that
all persons are in a safe location. Slowly move into the
material with the tractor PTO set at 540 rpm (1000 rpm
on "Q" models).
• Damage to the implement or its components.
ꢀ Use additional caution and reduce speed when
under adverse surface conditions, turning, or on
inclines.

2. Raise cutter with hydraulic cylinder.
3. Rotate transport lock over cylinder rod.
4. Lower cylinder against transport lock.
ꢀ Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.
ꢀ Do not stop, start, or change directions sud-
denly on slopes.
ꢀ Use extreme care and reduce ground speed on
slopes and rough terrain.
5. To lower cutter for operation, extend hydraulic
cylinder. Rotate transport lock back away from
cylinder rod. Lower to desired cutting height.
ꢀ Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during
operation.
CAUTION
ꢀ Stop power unit and equipment immediately
upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine,
remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before
resuming operation.
Maximum recommended ground speed for cutting or
shredding is 5 miles per hour. Adjust tractor ground
speed by using higher or lower gears to provide a clean
cut without lugging tractor engine.
Figure 9. Transport Lock Operation
STORAGE
Tall material should be cut twice. Cut material higher
the first pass. Cut at desired height at 90 degrees the
second pass.
ꢀ Keep children and bystanders away from stor-
age area.
Remember, sharp blades produce cleaner cuts and
use less power.
Before entering an area, analyze it to determine the
best procedure. Consider the height and type of mate-
rial to be cut and the terrain type (hilly, level or rough,
etc.).
ON MOUNTED AND SEMI-MOUNTED CUTTERS:
ꢀ Disconnect cutter driveshaft and secure up off
ground. Raise cutter with 3-point hitch. Place
blocks under cutter side skids. Lower cutter onto

who possess basic mechanical skills. If you need help,
your dealer has trained service technicians available.
For your protection, read and follow the safety informa-
tion in this manual.
3. With full cutter weight lowered onto jackstands, test
blocking stability before working underneath.
4. If cutter is attached to tractor when blocking, set
the brakes, remove key, and block cutter before
working underneath.
ꢀ Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
5. Securely block rear tractor wheels, in front and
behind. Tighten tractor lower 3-point arm anti-sway
mechanism to prevent side-to-side movement.
CAUTION
ꢀ If you do not understand any part of this manual
and need assistance, see your dealer.
LUBRICATION
ꢀ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
Do not let excess grease collect on or around parts,
particularly when operating in sandy areas.
See Figure 10 for lubrication points and frequency or
lubrication based on normal operating conditions.
Severe or unusual conditions may require more fre-
quent lubrication.
BLOCKING METHOD
Use a lithium grease of #2 consistency with a MOLY
(molybdenum disulfide) additive for all locations unless
otherwise noted. Be sure to clean fittings thoroughly
before attaching grease gun. One good pump of most
guns is sufficient when the lubrication schedule is fol-
lowed.
ꢀ Never go underneath equipment (lowered to the
ground or raised) unless it is properly blocked and
secured. Never place any part of the body under-
neath equipment or between moveable parts even
when the engine has been turned off. Hydraulic
system leak down, hydraulic system failures,
mechanical failures, or movement of control levers
can cause equipment to drop or rotate unexpect-
edly and cause severe injury or death. Follow Oper-
ator's Manual instructions for working underneath
and blocking requirements or have work done by a
qualified dealer.
Gearbox Lubrication
1. For gearbox, use a high quality gear oil with a
viscosity index of 80W or 90W and an API service
rating of GL-4 or -5 in gearboxes.
2. Fill gearbox until oil runs out the side plug on
gearbox. Check gearbox daily for evidence of
leakage, and contact your dealer if leakage occurs.
To minimize the potential hazards of working under-
neath the cutter, follow these procedures.
Driveline Lubrication
1. Jackstands with a load rating of 1000 lbs or more
are the only approved blocking device for this
cutter. Install a minimum of four jackstands (shown
by Xs in Figure 10) under the cutter before working
underneath unit.
1. Lubricate the driveline slip joint every ten operating
hours. Failure to maintain proper lubrication could
result in damage to U-joints, gearbox, and
driveline.
2. Lower cutter to ground, disconnect driveline from
tractor PTO shaft, and slide halves apart but do not
disconnect from each other.
Do not position jackstands under wheels, axles, or
wheel supports. Components can rotate and cause
cutter to fall.
2. Consider the overall stability of the blocked unit.
Just placing jackstands underneath will not ensure
your safety.
3. Apply a bead of grease completely around male
half where it meets female half. Slide drive halves
over each other several times to distribute grease.

FLEXIBLE COUPLER
RUBBER DISK REPLACEMENT
SERVICING TIRES SAFELY
Used Aircraft Tires (Figure 15)
The flexible coupler side drive is designed to flex when
striking heavy objects or during start-up to protect gear-
boxes. The rubber disks will wear out over time and
require replacement much like slip clutch disks. To
maximize rubber disk life, lower tractor engine speed to
an idle when engaging the PTO and avoid striking the
ground with cutter blades.
WARNING
Periodically inspect the disks for signs of cracking. A
disk may run for some time after a crack starts but this
is the first sign that disk replacement is required in the
future.
To replace the disks, remove hardware items 6, 7, 8,
and 9. Remove sleeves (7) from old disk and install in
new disk. Reassemble and torque bolts to 85 lbs-ft.
See Figure 14. Take special care not to rotate gearbox
shaft and throw blades out of time. If rubber disks have
failed and blades are hitting, you will need to re-time
the blades per instructions on page 35.
Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the
proper equipment and experience to perform the job.
Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate
tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld or
heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause an
increase in air pressure and result in a tire explosion.
Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.
When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and an exten-
sion hose long enough to allow you to stand to the side
— not in front of or over the tire assembly. Use a safety
cage if available.
Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, dam-
aged rims, or missing lug bolts and nuts.

2. Inspect area of shaft where seal seats. Remove
any burrs or nicks with an emery cloth.
3. Lubricate gear shaft and seal lips.
4. Place seal squarely on housing, spring-loaded lip
toward housing. Select a piece of pipe or tubing
with an OD that will sit on the outside edge of the
seal but will clear the housing. Tubing with an OD
that is too small will bow seal cage and ruin seal.
ꢀ Before working underneath, disconnect drive-
line, raise cutter, lock in transport position, and
block cutter securely. Hydraulic system leak down
and failure of mechanical or hydraulic system can
cause equipment to drop.
5. Carefully press seal into housing, avoiding
distortion to the metal seal cage.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
DEALER SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
Install Attitude Rod
Slide attitude rod (3) under right spindle driveline and
through pivot block on the tailwheel. Loosely install
washer (25) and two hex nuts (26).
These instructions are for the assembly of the DS1260
and DS1440 mounted, semi-mounted and pull-type
cutters as well as the DSO1260 semi-mounted cutter.
Many of the procedures apply to all units. When an
instruction applies to a specific unit, the section
heading will indicate which unit. Assembly of options
may not apply to all units.
Install Spring Arm
1. Attach spring arm (11) to cylinder (6) or ratchet
(10) using pin (13).
2. Place spring arm (11) and spring (12) on deck as
shown. Secure spring arm (11) to spring arm lugs
(on the cutter) using pin (14) and two cotter pins
(27). Install retaining cap screw (28) and flange
lock nut (24).
Assembly of the cutter is the responsibility of the
Woods dealer. It should be delivered to the owner
completely assembled, lubricated, and adjusted for
normal cutting conditions.
The cutter is shipped partially assembled. Assembly
will be easier if aligned and loosely assembled before
tightening hardware. Recommended torque values for
hardware are located in the Bolt Torque Chart, page
82.
Install Height Adjustment Device
Ratchet
Attach ratchet (10) to tailwheel lugs and secure with pin
(15) and two cotter pins (27).
Select a suitable working area. A smooth hard surface,
such as concrete, will make assembly much quicker.
Open parts boxes and lay out parts and hardware to
make location easy. Refer to illustrations, accompany-
ing text, parts lists and exploded view drawings.
Cylinder
1. Place hydraulic cylinder (6) between lugs (Position
A) on tailwheel.
2. Extend cylinder rod, place transport lock bracket
(5) over cylinder rod end and between lugs on
tailwheel.
Complete check lists on page 52 when you have com-
pleted the assembly.
3. Align holes of cylinder rod, transport lock bracket
and lugs on tailwheel. Secure assembly using pin
(15) and two cotter pins (27).

ting height adjustment, use a single-acting cylinder
with a maximum extended length of 28-1/4" (718
mm) from attaching point center to center.
Install Rear Tailwheel
1. Attach tailwheel arms (1) to the tailwheel using
eight (four per arm) cap screws (21) and lock nuts
(22).
NOTICE
■ If using a cylinder other than the one supplied
by Woods, make sure a breather fitting is installed
in the cylinder rod end port. Use a restricter fitting
in the base end port to dampen the cutter lowering
action.
NOTE: Position tailwheel arms on tailwheel to
desired location (usually on row crop centers).
Wheel hubs should be positioned to the outside of
the cutter.
1. Install reducer bushing (7) and restricter swivel
elbow (8) in port at base end of cylinder (6).

DS1260 & DS1440 - ALL MODELS
FILL GEARBOXES
INSTALL CHAIN OR RUBBER SHIELDING
NOTICE
ꢀ Full chain or rubber shielding must be installed
when operating in populated areas or other areas
where thrown objects could injure people or dam-
age property.
■ Gearbox is not filled at the factory. Prior to
delivery to customer, make sure gearbox is filled
only half-full with 80W or 90W API GL-4 or GL-5
gear lube. Use side plug to remove any excess oil.
• If this machine is not equipped with full chain
or rubber shielding, operation must be stopped
when anyone comes within 300 feet (92 m).
• This shielding is designed to reduce the risk
of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec-
tive devices cannot prevent all objects from
escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing
condition. It is possible for objects to ricochet
and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).
1. Make sure vent plug hole is clear (installed by
dealer).
2. Remove plug on side of gearbox.
3. Fill gearbox until oil runs out the side plug on
gearbox. Use a high quality gear oil with a viscosity
index of 80W or 90W and an API service rating of
GL-4 or GL-5.
4. Install side plug and vent plug.
Rubber Shielding (Figure 34)
1. Attach rubber belting and deflector brackets to the
front of the frame using carriage bolts (9), and lock
nuts (10).
2. Attach rear band to the rear of the frame using
carriage bolts (9), and lock nuts (10).
Optional Chain Shielding (Figure 35)
The optional chain shielding assemblies are ready for
installation when you receive them.
Install front and rear chain shielding as shown using
carriage bolt (10) and lock nut (11).

DELIVERY CHECK LIST
(DEALER’S RESPONSIBILITY
Inspect cutter thoroughly after assembly to make sure
it is set up properly before delivering it to the customer.
The following check list is a reminder of points to
inspect. Check off each item as it is found satisfactory,
corrections are made, or services are performed.
___ Show customer how to make adjustments.
Describe the options available for this cutter and
explain their purpose.
___ Explain importance of lubrication to customer and
point out lubrication points on cutter.
IMPORTANT

importance and the safety hazards that exist
when not kept in place and in good condition.
■ Gearbox was not filled at the factory. It must be
serviced before operating cutter. (See LUBRICA-
TION, page 21). Failure to service will result in dam-
age to gearbox.
___ For mounted units, add wheel weights, ballast in
front tires, and/or front tractor weight to enhance
front end stability. A minimum 20% of tractor and
equipment gross weight must be on front tractor
wheels. When adding weight to attain 20% of
tractor and equipment weight on front tractor
wheels, you must not exceed the ROPS weight
certification. Weigh the tractor and equipment. Do
not estimate!
___ Check that gearbox is properly serviced and
seals are not leaking.
___ Check and grease all lubrication points as identi-
fied in Owner Service, LUBRICATION, page 21.
___ Check that blades have been properly installed
___ Check all bolts to be sure they are properly
torqued.
___ Present Operator's Manual and request that cus-
tomer and all operators read it before operating
equipment. Point out the manual safety rules,
explain their meanings and emphasize the
increased safety hazards that exist when safety
rules are not followed.
___ Check that all cotter pins are properly installed
and secured.
___ Check that PTO shaft is properly installed.
___ Explain to customer that when equipment is
transported on a road or highway, safety devices
should be used to give adequate warning to oper-
ators of other vehicles.
