2. Raise brush mulcher slightly off ground.
3. Verify hydraulics are disengaged.
4. Travel at a reasonable and safe speed.
^ WARNING
To prevent bodily injury from rotating cutting wheel, be sure to disengage hydraulics before transporting mulcher�
5�7 Carbide Teeth Break-In
During the rst few hours of use, avoid hitting
stones as much as possible to allow the carbide teeth (A) to wear slightly. This can be done by keeping the cutting wheel above ground level. Brand new carbide tips are razor sharp and can chip and shatter easily when they hit hard objects. Once the razor sharpness has worn away, the tips do not chip as easily. Observing these precautions will extend the life of the carbide teeth and reduce operating expenses.
The teeth bolts must be retighten every ten minutes
for the rst hour of use on a new mulcher.

5.8 First Time User Tips
• First, operate all functions in a clear area with skid steer at idle speed to get a good feel for the controls before you actually move into any brush.
• Choose low density brush and move into it
slowly, do not expect to get the rst area done
fast.
• Slow travel speed if pressure surges up close to max psi, doing this will greatly reduce rotor jams, and with practice, will almost eliminate jams.
• Run throttle only at half speed for rst time users.
• Operate with mulcher slightly raised until you have a better feel how much the unit can take.
• The machine is equipped with a push plate and a push bar to push brush or small trees over. This will allow the mulcher teeth to contact the lower portion of the brush and mulch it or cut it off. The rest of the plant will be mulched as the machine moves through the working area.
^ WARNING
Wear an approved respirator (N95 Type as a minimum)�
Follow local, state and federal regulations�
The health effects from exposure to wood dust are due to chemicals in the wood or chemical substances in the wood created by bacteria, fungi, or molds�
• For tall brush, you can use the push plate and push bar to push the brush over and cut it off close to ground. Each operator must
experiment to nd a technique that works for
them in their application.
• Although it is best to mulch when it is dry, the machine works well in wet conditions.However, you must travel slower to do the same quality mulching. It will also be necessary to clean the machine more frequently to prevent caking and clogging of the rotor area.
^ WARNING
Always turn off the skid steer and disengage hydraulic drive before getting off the seat and approaching the cutting wheel�
