Why Woods Cutter does not cut?
- D
  Donald MartinAug 12, 2025
  Your Woods Cutter might not be cutting due to several reasons. The blades could be dull, so you should sharpen them. They might also be worn or broken, in which case you should replace them in pairs. The PTO speed could be incorrect, so set it at the rated speed. Alternatively, the ground speed might be too fast, so reduce it. Other potential issues include a non-functioning drive, a gearbox malfunction, excessive clutch slippage, or incorrect blade direction. Inspect the drive shaft connection, gearbox, and clutch, and ensure the blade edge is correct for the rotation direction.

  Justin TurnerAug 16, 2025
  If your Woods Cutter is leaving streaks or a ragged cut, there are several things to check. Start by inspecting the blades; they may be broken or worn and need to be replaced or sharpened. Ensure the machine is level. Also, reduce your ground speed. If the cutting height is too high, lower it, being careful not to hit the ground frequently. If you're dealing with excessive, lush, and tall vegetation, try recutting at a 90° angle to your first pass.

Why Woods Cutter has excessive clutch slippage?
- D
  Dale HernandezAug 19, 2025
  Excessive clutch slippage in your Woods Cutter can stem from a few causes. The clutch might be out of adjustment, so try adjusting it. The clutch discs may be worn, preventing them from properly contacting the opposite plate, in which case you should replace the discs. Also, check if the blades are hitting the ground, and if so, raise the cutting height.

  Vibration in your Woods Cutter can be caused by several factors. A broken blade is a common cause, so replace the blades in pairs. Bearing failure can also lead to vibration; check the gearbox shafts for side play. Additionally, an incorrect hitch length or universal drive alignment can cause vibration; reset the hitch length and adjust the pedestal bearing height to be parallel to the ground.

Why Woods BATWING BW15.51 unit doesn’t cut level?
- J
  Jesse BlevinsAug 31, 2025
  If your Woods Cutter unit isn’t cutting level, it could be because the wing section cuts lower than the center. If this is the case, lengthen the turnbuckle connecting the center yoke to the wing wheel yoke. Alternatively, the wing section might be cutting higher than the center, in which case you should shorten the turnbuckle connecting the center yoke to the wing wheel yoke.
