GENERAL INFORMATION
The following instructions will help you to mount your rotary cutter onto your
skid-steer loader. The rotary cutter uses the quick-attach system for ease of installa-
tion. Therefore, if you know how to attach your loader bucket, attaching the rotary cutter
should prove no problem.
Remember to read all safety warnings, decals and operating instructions before
operating the attachment. If there is any portion of this manual that you do not under-
stand, contact your dealer.
DANGER! TO AVOID SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH THE BRAD-
CO ROTARY CUTTER MUST NOT BE ATTACHED TO ANY POWER
UNIT THAT DOES NOT HAVE A SHATTERPROOF DOOR (OR FRONT
SHIELD) INSTALLED.
WARNING! OPERATING THE STANDARD FLOW ROTARY CUTTER ON A HIGH
FLOW HYDRAULIC SYSTEM MAY CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH
TO THE OPERATOR OR BYSTANDERS DUE TO THE INCREASED
RPM. DO NOT OPERATE THE STANDARD FLOW ROTARY CUTTERS
ON HIGH FLOW HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Before attaching the rotary cutter to your skid-steer loader, make sure a shatter-
proof door (or front shield) has been installed onto the front of your skid-steer loader. This
is required to protect the operator from possible thrown objects.
1. Remove the shipping banding from around the rotary cutter and skid.
2. Remove any attachments from the front of the loader.
3. Following all standard safety practices and the instructions for installing an attachment
in your skid-steer operator's manual, install the rotary cutter onto your skid-steer.
NOTE: It is important to make sure the locking mechanism on your quick attach is
engaged, therefore locking the attachment onto the skid-steer.
4. Connect the Lift Limiting Chain to your skid-steer. The back of the rotary cutter should
never be more than 1 foot off the ground for proper and safe cutting. (Raise the unit
to 1 foot above ground level. Route the end of the Lift Limiting Chain through the "D"
ring on the back of the rotary cutter and then through the tie down mechanism(s)
on the front of your skid-steer loader. Tie the chain securely back to itself with the
shackle provided, to limit the lifting capabilities of the cutter to 1 foot maximum.)
5. Lower the unit to the ground and remove the key.
6. After making sure that there is not any foreign matter on the hydraulic couplers,
connect the couplers to the auxiliary hydraulic system of your skid-steer loader.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate the BRADCO standard ow rotary cutter on High Flow
Hydraulic systems. Doing so will void the standard ow rotary cutter warranty.
