    What to do if Woods Cutter does not cut?
    • J
      Jacqueline FordSep 5, 2025
      If your Woods Cutter blades are not turning when the PTO is running, check the drive shaft connection. Ensure the PTO speed is set to the rated speed. Also, verify the blade edge is correct for the direction of rotation. Other possible causes include dull, worn, or broken blades (sharpen or replace them), incorrect blade direction, gearbox malfunction (check gearbox), excessive clutch slippage (adjust clutch), or ground speed too fast (reduce ground speed).

    Why Woods Cutter leaves streaks or ragged cut?
    • N
      Nicole ChavezSep 7, 2025
      Streaks or a ragged cut from your Woods Cutter can result from broken or worn blades (replace or sharpen them). It may also happen if the attitude is incorrect (level the machine), the ground speed is too fast (reduce ground speed), the cutting height is too high (lower cutting height), or the vegetation is too lush and tall (re-cut at 90° to the first pass).
