SODCUTTER
MODEL 460
TO OPERATE TURF CUTTER AND ATTACHMENTS
Start motor by using choke and throttle lever. Lift Sodcutter by the handle and adjust depth of cut. Have
motor running about 2000 revolutions per minute. Engage cutter bar so that is oscillates, then engage drive
wheels, and lower Sodcutter slowly on to the grass. The cutter blade will automatically dig into the earth as
you move. At the end of the run, disengage both cutter and drive and then lift blade clear off ground by
lifting machine. The Sodcutter blade is adjustable for hard, soft and normal (center position) soil
conditions.
