Operating Hints
IMPORTANT: Read all machine and implement manuals thoroughly before using the cutter bar.
Always familiarise yourself with the machine’s operation before commencing work.
Best results are obtained with the engine at a low throttle setting, which enables the bar to
cut cleanly and gives less wear and tear on the reciprocating parts, which in turn reduces
maintenance.
NB: If you are working on a slope, always work across the slope - never up or down.
On rough terrain, the bar should be raised by the height adjuster skids to prevent the blades
from digging into the ground.
WARNING: If any abnormal vibrations or sounds occur, STOP the engine immediately and
check the machine and the cutter bar. If you have any concerns contact your supplier.
