Assembly - Series II Rotary Cutter Assembly Instructions 3-Point Hitch Mounted Assembly Instructions 1. Mount the hitch assembly (#7) to the deck using the category 1 lift arm pins (#32) supplied. The bushings (#34), and the 1" I.D. washer (#73) should allow the hitch to swivel freely. 2. The ends of the two pivot arms (#5 & #6) with the offset holes bolt to the hitch using a 5/8" x 4" bolt and lock nut. The offset should be turned down.
Assembly - Series II Rotary Cutter 4. Bolt the welded end of the level control rod (#56) to the front tongue as shown on drawing using a 5/8" x 2 ½” hex bolt and lock nut. The control rod clevis (#53) must be adjusted so the cutter will sit level with the ground when it is pinned to the swivel assembly. NOTE: Be sure to use the top bracket on the swivel assembly (#47) when the wheels are trailing behind the cutter as shown in drawing. 5. Mount the slip clutch PTO shaft on the cutter.
Operation - Series II Rotary Cutter Operation Instructions 1. Connecting to Tractor: All cutters are supplied with a standard 1 3/8" 6-spline yoke on the PTO shaft. WARNING This cutter is designed to operate only with a 540 rpm PTO. After connecting cutter to tractor and before doing any cutting, check to see that the PTO shaft is not touching anywhere on the cutter when raising and lowering or when cornering. 2.
Operation - Series II Rotary Cutter 4. Cutting: The cutter should be run with the front end a little low or just level for normal light cutting. For brush or dense tall weeds, running front end high may give a better shredding job. On rough ground, the front end will also tend to dig in less. The cutter can also be used to shred stubble or top vegetables prior to harvest. 5. 5' & 6' Trailing Models: The wheels supplied with the cutter are for towing at speeds of no more than 20 mph.

Maintenance - Series II Rotary Cutter Maintenance Service 1. Gearbox: The gearbox should be filled with SAE90 oil to the bottom edge of the lower oil plug when shipped. Check this before using the cutter and at regular intervals to see that this oil level is maintained. 2. Grease wheels, tail wheel spindle sleeve, universal joints and shield bushings on the PTO shaft after every eight hours of use. Lubricate the telescoping PTO tube and the PTO quick release about every twenty hours of use. 3.
