TIPS ON BRUSH CUTTING
OBSTACLES: Always check your work area before mowing and remove any debris that might
get tangled in or damage the machine. If the mower becomes tangled, turn off the engine and
disconnect the spark plug wire before reaching into the mower deck area.
SLOPES: Do not operate the brush blazer on slopes more than 20 degrees. If you have to
operate the machine on sloping terrain, move across the face of the slope, not up and down.
IF THE MACHINE GETS HUNG UP: Disengage the blade immediately. Try moving in reverse
and backing away from the obstacle.
CUTTING BRUSH AND SAPLINGS: The Brush Blazer can cut saplings up to 4” in diameter.
When cutting saplings or brush, allow the Brush Blazer to ride up and over the material slowly.
Adjust your forward speed to varying conditions. After cutting brush or saplings, you may want to
mow over it again to remove any remaining branches. It its recommended to mow from the trunk
end toward the top as the brush lies on the ground.
CUTTING IN WET CONDITIONS: Use extreme caution when cutting in wet or slippery
conditions. Avoid steep slopes or other slippery areas. Use a lower speed when conditions are
wet or slippery.
While holding the left steering control
handle with your right hand, reach down
and pull up on the blade engagement
While holding the left steering control

figures for reference:
1. Make sure the blade engagement control handle is disengaged.
2. Remove the engine deck rear guard.
3. Place tension on the drive belt as shown in the figure.
4. Measure the gap between the idler and the belt. There should be 1/8”-3/16” gap between the
idler and the belt.
If the idler needs to be adjusted:
1. Remove the cotter pin from the end of the adjustment rod and remove the end of the
adjustment rod from the clutch control crank.
2. Turn the adjustment rod clockwise to move the idler closer to the belt, or counter-clockwise to
move the idler away from the belt.
