Important Safety Information
These are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products described in this manual.
Use Safety Lights and Devices
Slow moving tractors, self-
propelled equipment, and towed implements can create a hazard when driven on public roads. They are difficult to see, especially at night.
Flashing warning lights and turn
signals are recommended whenever driving on public roads.
Transport Machinery Safely
Comply with state and local laws.Maximum transport speed for
implement is 20 mph. DO NOT EXCEED.Never travel at a speed which does not allow adequate control of steering and stopping. Some rough terrain require a slower speed.
Sudden braking can cause a
towed load to swerve and upset. Reduce speed if towed load is not equipped with brakes.
Use the following maximum
speed - tow load weight ratios as a guideline:
20 mph when weight is less than or equal to the weight of tractor.
10 mph when weight is double the weight of tractor.
IMPORTANT: Do not tow a load that
is more than double the weight of tractor.
Use A Safety Chain
A safety chain will help control
drawn machinery should it separate from the tractor drawbar.
Use a chain with the strength
rating equal to or greater than the gross weight of the towed machinery.
Attach the chain to the tractor
drawbar support or other specified anchor location. Allow only enough slack in the chain to permit turning.
Do not use safety chain for
towing.

Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new product owners.
ThisRotary Cutter has beendesignedwith care and built by skilled workers using quality materials. Proper assembly,maintenanceand safe operating practices will help you get years of satisfactory use from the machine.

Application

The SC2660 and SC2672 Series Skid Steer Rotary Cutters are built and designed by Land Pride for cutting on gently sloping or slightly contoured right-of-ways, pastures, set aside acres, and row crop fields. These skid steer mounted cutters provide unparalleled access to tightly restricted areas such as under fences, in and around boxed in corner sections of corrals and out buildings, vineyard and nursery rows, wooded lots, and approaches to ditches and waterways. The 60" or 72" cutting width, 8"offset capability to the right, 2" cutting capacity, 1.5" to 18" cutting height range, and the universal skid steer floating-hitch mounting plate make the SC2660 and SC2672 highly versatile and easy to use. The SC2660 is compatible with and designed for attachment to skid steers having 1500 psi to 3000 psi operating pressure and flow rates in the 11-15 gpm, 15-21 gpm, or 18-27 gpm ranges. The SC2672 is compatible with and designed for attachment to skid steers having 1500 psi to 3000 psi operating pressure and flow rates in the 15-21 gpm, or 18-27 gpm ranges.
The SC2660 and SC2672 provide very high and clean cutting blade tipspeeds but owner/operatorswill need to select the motor that is appropriately matched to their skid steers hydraulic flow and pressure capabilities. Our low volume motor, which is available on the SC2660 only, produces a blade tip speed of 18,540 fpm at 15 gpm. Medium volume and high volume motors are available for both models. On the SC2660, our medium volume motor produces 18,850 fpm at 21 gpm, and our high volume motor produces 19,000 fpm at 27 gpm. On the SC2672, our medium volume motor produces 17,200 fpm at 21 gpm, and our high volume motor produces 18,550 fpm at 27 gpm. Each unit is equipped with two 1/2" x 4"updraft blades and a heavy duty round pan stump jumper. A deflector chute is located tothe left rearsideofthecuttertopreventcloggingin heavy cutting conditions.
The SC2660 and SC2672 come standard with a front mounted single row chain guard, a rear mounted double row chain guard, and a safety chain to restrict deck lift height. Four corner-mounted skid shoes are provided to reducewear and to keepthecutterfrom bottoming out. A Lexan protective cab door is available as optional equipment or owner/operators may choose to use a protective door provided or made available by their skid steer supplier/manufacturer.
A pivoting and adjustable front mounted gauge wheel with a single laminated tire is available to make mowing even easier by pre-setting the mowing height and allowing the cutter to float over uneven terrain. Hydraulic hoses and a case-drain line are provided as standard equipment but compatible couplersfor attachment tothe individual skid steersauxiliary hydraulic outletswill need to be provided by dealers or customers.
The addition of a Land Pride SC2660 or SC2672 Skid Steer Rotary Cutter to your arsenal of skid steer attachments will dramatically increasethe versatility and value of your personal skid steer investment.

Operating Information

Hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, prudence and proper training involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of the Rotary Cutter. Therefore, it is absolutely essential that no one operates the Rotary Cutter without first having read, fully understood and become totally familiar with the Operator’s Manual. Make sure the operator has paid particular attention to:
Important Safety Information, page 1
Section 1: Assembly & Set-up, page 9
Section 2: Adjustments, page 14
Section 3: Operating Procedures, page 18
Section 5: Maintenance & Lubrication, page 23
The following inspections should be performed before operating your Skid Steer cutter.
Inspection Checklist
Land Pride
!
WARNING
Do not operate Rotary Cutter without an operator protective door mounted to the cab and protective eye wear such as safety glasses or goggles. Flying objects from the cutter can cause serious injury to the body and eyes.
!
WARNING
The SC2660 Rotary Cutter is designed to cut grass and brush up to 2” in diameter.Using this cutter for another type of work can damage the drive components, deck and support frame.
!
WARNING
Do not traveltoo fast. The rougherthe terrain, the slower you must travel. Always travel at a speed slow enough to be able to adjust the deck height before running it into the ground. Remember, sudden dropping of the front tires can slam the deck into the ground. Also, travel slow enough to stop before running or turning into obstacles ahead and on either side.
Check Reference
Make Sure all guards and shields are in place and secure.
Inspect Hydraulic hoses for wear, damage and hydraulic leaks. Replace damaged and worn hoses with genuine Land Pride parts.
Grease all fittings. Refer to “Lubrication” Check the Rotary Cutter initially and periodically
for loose bolts & pins,Torque Values Chart.
!
Rotary Cutters have the ability to discharge objects at high speeds. Therefore, the use of front & rear deck safety shields is required! Keep all bystanders at least 100 yards away. Flying objects from the cutter can cause serious injury or death.
Do not cut after dark without working lights. The equipment can be damaged from hitting objects not seen in the dark and from being hit by vehicles not able to see the equipment.
Cutter deck can be slippery especially when wet. Always step on the anti grip pads when possible. Never hurry. Make sure you have secure footing and hand hold when walking on the deck.
Do not become entangled in the hydraulic hoses. Tripping over the hoses while entering or exiting the Skid Steer operator station can cause serious injury to the body.

Skid Steer Operating Instructions

Assuming you have met all of the above requirements and taken them seriously, it is time to take the next step and that is accomplished by dressing appropriately for thetask.Youwillneedtoputon protective eye wear such as safety glasses, goggles, or a face shield. A hard hat, steel toed safety shoes, gloves, and hearing protection are also highly recommended. Never wear loose fitting clothing and you may want to put on a respirator or filter mask to avoid breathing in dust, pollen, or agriculturally used toxins that may be present.
The next stepis a static or non-running pre-inspection of the Skid Steer unit. You will want to make sure that the Skid Steer is equipped with a fully functioning ROPS (Roll Over Protection System) which does include seat belts and an operator safety enclosure. The cab must alsobe equipped withanoperator protective door, which may have been supplied with the Skid Steer unit. Land Pride does offer a protective door with the SC2660 and SC2672if one is notalreadyprovided.If the Skid Steeris to be operated on local roadways, it must be equipped with appropriate Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) and other required lighting packages so as to make it compliant with state and local department of transportation requirements.Thecutterdrivemotor must be matched to the output of the hydraulic capacity of the Skid Steer. Failure to do thiscould result inserious over-speeding of the cutting unit possibly resulting in serious injury, fatalities or property damage. The universal quick-hitch mount should be in good working order and latches should be located to the open position. There should be no evidence of hydraulic leaks in and around the auxiliary hydraulic couplers. There must be a readily accessible attaching point for the Rotary Cutter lift-limit chain on the lower front portion of the chassis frame. Finally make surethat all shields and safety features are in place and fully functional.
The next step is to perform a running check of the Skid Steer unit. As you get onto the Skid Steer and into the operator’ compartment always use factory provided hand-holds and don’t grab the steering or control levers toeaseorstabilizeyourentry.Fasten your seat belt once you are seatedand begin tomentally orient yourself with the position of all controls, switches, pedals, levers, and their related functions. Once you are sure that the park brake is on, no people or animals are in close proximity, all control levers, pedals and hydraulic systems are in neutral position, go ahead and startthe engine. With the enginenowrunningandthethrottleat approximately one third, test all controls to make sure they are fully functioning. If at any time there is an equipment failure, shut the unit down and make immediate and full repairs.

Rotary Cutter Operating Instructions

Assuming all systems with the Skid Steer are “go” and fully functioning, it is time to connect to the SC2660 or SC2672 Rotary Cutter. This is done by maneuveringthe Skid Steer mounting plate into position under the universal quick mount hitch saddle. Once this is
accomplished and the mower is fully supported by the Skid Steer lift arms, lower the mower to a point approximately two inches above the ground. Turn the engineoff,setthe parking brake, and climb out of theSkid Steer. Lock the latch handles down to engage the hitch pins. Make the appropriate hydraulic connections to the auxiliary hydraulic outlet and case drain making sure to keep connectors clean. Be sureto use proper fittings and if connection is difficult, moving levers may help relieve line pressure. (Note! Hydraulic flow direction on all skid steers is not the same. Make sure hoses are connected properly or blades will rotate at a much slower speed.) Wipe away spilled or excess hydraulic oil and secure Cordura sleeves to contain potential leaks. Connect the height limiting safety chain to the chassis attaching point and restrict cutting height to no more that eighteen inches. This completes theattachment of thecutter to the Skid Steer.
The next step is to complete a pre-operation check of the cutter. Make sure all guards, safety shields, safety chains, and deflectors are in place. All hardware must be in place and appropriately tightened. Damaged, severely worn or defective parts must be replaced prior to operation. If your unit is equipped with the optional front mounted gauge wheel, you will want to adjust it for desired cutting height at this time.
You should always inspect the area where you intend to cutfor debris and hazardslocated on the ground.Noone, including people and animals, should be allowed within 100 yards of this cutter when in operation. If someone does approach, shut the cutter down immediately. The blades on this cutter should never be allowed to come in contact with objects such as wire, cable, rope, or chains that might become entangled. These types of entangled objects can become extremely hazardous by rotating outside of the cutter deck housing resulting in serious injury or death. Always inspect the area before you mow.
The best mowing results will be achieved at speeds between 2 mph and 5 mph as grounds and mowing conditions dictate. If you are mowing in particularly tall or dense brush, you may want to make two passes with the first pass being at 18" and the second pass made as a cross-cut at the desired cut height. If you are mowing without the benefit of the front mounted gauge wheel in the float position, you will probably need to slow down significantly especially over uneven terrain or furrows. Driving too fast over uneven ground will cause the unit to undulate in a forward pitching motion. The best advice is to drive slow but keep engine speed and blade tip speed high. Once you get the feel of it you can increase speed and productivity.
When you do need to stop, make sure you set the park brake, shut the Skid Steer engine off, and allow time for the blades to stop rotating before you climb down. With a little practice we are confident you will soon achieve safe andexcellentresultswithyournewLandPride SC2660 or SC2672 Skid Steer Rotary Cutter.

Section 5: Maintenance & Lubrication

Maintenance

Proper servicing and adjustment is the keyto the long life of any implement. Withcareful and systematic inspection, you can avoid costly maintenance, time and repair.
After using your Rotary Cutter for several hours, checkall bolts to be sure they are tight.
Replace any worn, damaged or illegible safety labels by obtaining new labels from your Land Pride Dealer.

Cutter Blade Maintenance

!
Always disconnect hydraulic hoses fromthe Skid Steer before servicing underside of deck.The motor can be engagedif Skid Steer is started resulting in possible damage to the cutter, bodily injury and/or death.
Always secure the cutter deck in the up position with solid supports before servicing the underside. Never work under equipment supported by hydraulics. Hydraulics can drop equipment if controls are actuated or if hydraulic lines burst. Either situation can dropthe cutter instantly even when power to the hydraulics is shut off.
Always inspect cutting blades before each use. Make certain they are properly installed and are in good working condition. Replace any blade that is damaged, worn, bent, or excessively nicked. Small nicks can be ground out when sharpening.
Removecutting blades and sharpen or replace asfollows:
1. Align blade bolt with access hole in deck.
2. Placeskidsteerinpark and/or set brakes,shutengine

as the original cutting edge and must be replaced or re-ground at the same time to maintain proper balance in the cutting unit. The followingprecautions should be taken when sharpening the blades:
a. Do not remove more material than necessary. b. Do not heat and pound out a cutting edge. c. Donot grind bladestoa razor edge. Leave a blunt
cutting edge approximately 1/16” thick.
d. Always grind the cutting edge so that the end of
the blade remains square to the cutting edge and
not rounded. e. Do not sharpen the back side of the blade. f. Both blades should weigh the same after
sharpening with not more than 1 1/2 oz.
difference.Unbalanced bladeswillcause excessive
vibration which can damage gearboxbearings and
create structural cracks.
6. Carefully check cutting edges of blades in relation to blade carrier rotation to ensure correct blade placement. Cutter blades must be installed with cuttingedgeleadingin rotation and airfoil(lift) mustbe oriented towards the top of the deck.
Refer to Figure 5-1:
IMPORTANT: Shim (#2) below may or may not be required. If blade deflection is less than 3/4" without a shim, then the shim is not used. However, a shim is required if blade deflection is greater than 3/4".
IMPORTANT: Locknutscan loose their ability to lock properly once removed. Therefore, always use a used blade nut or plain nut in steps 7 & 8 below and then replace used nut with new locknut in step 9.
7. Start by assembling blades without shim (#2). Insert blade bolt (#1) through blade (#3), dish pan (#4) and flatwasher(#5).Temporarily securebladewith a used 1 1/8"-12 nut. Draw nut up snug. Do not tighten.

Hydraulic Maintenance

!
DANGER
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate skin. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic systems. Use a piece of cardboard or wood rather than hands when searching for hydraulic leaks. If hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin, it must be treated by a doctor within a few hours or gangrene may result.
One of the most important things you can do to prevent hydraulic system problems is to ensure that your Skid Steer reservoir remains free of dirt and contamination.
Use a clean cloth to wipe the hose ends before attaching them to your Skid Steer. Replace the filter element for your Skid Steer’s hydraulic system at the prescribed intervals. These simple maintenances will go a long way to prevent occurrence of hydraulic problems.

Storage

!
Store cutter with hitch plate in the upright position. A hitch plate that is stored folded down against the deck can tip up easily resulting in serious injury to the body.
Do not modify the Rotary Cutter without authorization from Land Pride. Unauthorized modifications to the cutter can result in the cutter not performing properly and/or in serious injury or death.
Cleanthe Rotary Cutter atthe end of theworking season or when the cutter will not be used for a long period.
