Use and Care Manual

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
• Set the Cutter to an appropriate height for the media being cut.
Taller/Thicker grass & brush may require a higher first cut and a
lower second cut for best results. It’s recommended to cut the
second pass perpendicular to the first pass.
• Height indicator decal contains number references. These
numbers do not reflect cutting height or inches. They are only a
quick reference to note where the height is set on each side of
the unit.
ADJUSTING HEIGHT
• Attach unit to the tow vehicle.
• Find the Crank Handle 1 located on either side of the Cutter.
