TRAINING
Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by an operator’s single careless act.
In addition to the design and configuration of equipment, hazard control and accident preven­tion are dependent upon the awareness, con­cern, judgement, and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of equipment.
It has been said, “The best safety device is an informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be that kind of operator.
SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO spline groove.
Before starting power unit, check all equipment driveline guards for damage. Replace any damaged guards. Make sure all guards rotate freely on all drivelines. If guards do not rotate freely on drive­lines, repair and replace bearings before putting equipment into service.
Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS system in “locked up” position at all times.
Safety instructions are important! Read all attachment and power unit manuals; follow all safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace­ment manuals and safety decals are available from your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check the Dealer Locator at www.WoodsEquipment.com, or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319-
6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules can result in serious injury or death.
If you do not understand any part of this manual and need assistance, see your dealer.
Know your controls and how to stop engine and attachment quickly in an emergency.
Operators must be instructed in and be capable of the safe operation of the equipment, its attach­ments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to operate this equipment without proper instruc­tions.
Never allow children or untrained persons to operate equipment.
PREPARATION
Check that all hardware is properly installed. Always tighten to torque chart specifications unless instructed otherwise in this manual.
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head; and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
Make sure attachment is properly secured, adjusted, and in good operating condition.

Attach the cutter to the tractor 3-point hitch (or quick hitch if available). Do not attach driveline. Raise and lower cutter to determine maximum and minimum dis­tance between the tractor PTO shaft and the gearbox input shaft. If the distance is too large, the driveline will be too short for proper engagement. If distance is too small, the driveline may bottom out in operation and damage the cutter or tractor.
The driveline length must be sufficient to provide at least 1/3 driveline length of engagement during opera­tion. There must be at least 4 inches of engagement at the cutter’s lowest possible point of operation. The driv­eline must not bottom out when raised to the maximum height possible.
If driveline is too short, please call your Woods dealer for a longer driveline.
If driveline is too long, please follow the instructions for shortening the driveline.
Figure 7. Determine Shield Length
5. Cut the shield to the overall dimension.
SHORTENING DRIVELINE
1. Move cutter up and down to get the shortest
possible distance between tractor PTO shaft and gearbox input shaft.
2. Separate driveline into two halves and connect them to the tractor PTO and gearbox.
3. Place driveline halves parallel to one another to determine how much to shorten the driveline.
Figure 8. Cut Shield
6. Place the cutoff portion of the shield against the
end of the shaft and use as a guide. Mark and cut the shaft.
Figure 6. Drive Halves Placed Parallel
4. Measure from end of the upper shield to the base
of the bell on the lower shield (A). Add 1-9/16" to dimension (A). See Figure 7.

Do not use tractor if proper driveline engagement can­not be obtained through these methods.
Connect driveline to tractor PTO shaft, making sure the spring-activated locking collar slides freely and locks driveline to PTO shaft.
NOTICE
If attaching with quick hitch, the distance
between the tractor PTO and gearbox input shaft will increase. Please follow the steps as you would for a 3-point hitch to insure proper engagement.
DRIVELINE INTERFERENCE CHECK
1. Check for clearance between driveline and cutter
deck.
2. Slowly lift cutter and observe driveline. If clearance between driveline and cutter deck is less than 1 inch, shorten top link or limit upper travel of lower hitch arms. Refer to tractor operator's manual for instructions.
1. Level cutter from side to side. Check by measuring from cutter frame to the ground at each deck rail.
2. Adjust, using tractor 3-point arm leveling device.
NOTE: Keep the front of cutter slightly lower than
rear for best mowing.
3. Control cutting height with tractor 3-point arms, rear tailwheel adjustment, or optional check chains.
4. To raise rear of cutter, move tailwheel arm down.
5. To raise front of cutter, raise tractor 3-point arms or
shorten optional check chains.
The cutting height is the distance between the blade and the ground. The blades are approximately 8.5" below the deck. To check cutting height, do the follow­ing:
a) Place a straight edge along top edge of deck. b) Select a cutting height; as an example, for an
approximate cutting height of 3", set the center of the deck 11.5" above the ground:
CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Keep all persons away from operator control area while performing adjustments, service, or maintenance.
Avoid low cutting heights. Striking the ground
with blades produces one of the most damaging shock loads a cutter can encounter. Allowing blades to contact ground repeatedly will cause damage to cutter and drive.
c) Adjust the front-to-rear attitude from 1/2" to 3/4"
higher than the front.
6. Adjust top link (BB60X, BB72X, BB84X) to provide 2" of clearance between break link (2) and rear lift links. See Figure 10. The clearance will allow cutter to float over uneven terrain.
SHREDDING MATERIAL
For shredding, set the cutter lower at rear. Determine how much lower to set the rear by experimenting in dif­ferent situations.

CHECK CHAIN ADJUSTMENT
2. Check chain bracket
3. Check chain
WARNING
1. Refer to Install Optional Check Chains, page 42 for check chain installation.
2. After making cutting height adjustment, adjust both chains (3) in check chain bracket (2) so you have the same number of links on each side. This will keep cutting level.
4. Always operate tractor PTO at 540 rpm to maintain proper blade speed and to produce a clean cut.
5. Under certain conditions tractor tires may roll down some grass and prevent cutting at the same height as the surrounding area. When this occurs, reduce your ground speed but maintain PTO at 540 rpm. The lower ground speed will permit grass to rebound partially.
STORAGE
Disconnect cutter driveshaft and secure up off ground. Raise cutter with 3-point hitch. Place blocks under cutter side skids. Lower cutter onto blocks. Disconnect cutter from tractor 3-point hitch and carefully drive tractor away from cutter.
Keep children and bystanders away from stor­age area.
PRE-OPERATION CHECK LIST
OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITY
Figure 11. Check Chain Adjustment
OPERATING TECHNIQUE
1. Power for operating the cutter is supplied by the
tractor PTO. Operate PTO at 540 rpm. Know how to stop the tractor and cutter quickly in an emergency.
2. Engage PTO at a low engine rpm to minimize stress on the drive system and gearbox. With PTO engaged, raise PTO speed to 540 rpm and maintain throughout cutting operation.
Gearbox protection is provided by a slip clutch with replacement fiber disc or a shear bolt. The slip clutch is designed to slip and the shear bolt will shear when excessive torsion loads occur.
3. Move slowly into material. Adjust tractor ground speed to provide a clean cut without lugging the tractor engine. Use a slow ground speed for better shredding.
Proper ground speed will depend on the terrain and the material’s height, type, and density.
Normally, ground speed will range from 2 to 5 mph. Tall, dense material should be cut at a low speed; thin, medium-height material can be cut at a faster ground speed.
___ Review and follow all safety rules and safety
decal instructions on page 7 through page 11.
___ Check that equipment is properly and securely
attached to tractor.
___ Make sure driveline spring-activated locking pin
or collar slides freely and is seated firmly in trac­tor PTO spline groove.
___ Set tractor PTO at 540 rpm.
___ Lubricate all grease fitting locations. Make sure
PTO shaft slip joint is lubricated.
___ Check to be sure gear lube runs out the small
check plug on side of gearbox.
___ Check that all hardware is properly installed and
secured.
___ Check that blades are sharp and secure and cut-
ting edge is positioned to lead in a counterclock­wise rotation.
___ Check that shields and guards are properly
installed and in good condition. Replace if dam­aged.
___ Check cutting height, front-to-rear attitude, and
top link adjustment.
___ Place tractor PTO and transmission in neutral
before starting engine.
___ Inspect area to be cut and remove stones,
branches, or other hard objects that might be thrown and cause injury or damage.

WARNING
CAUTION
WARNING
The information in this section is written for operators who possess basic mechanical skills. If you need help, your dealer has trained service technicians available. For your protection, read and follow the safety informa­tion in this manual
Keep all persons away from operator control area while performing adjustments, service, or maintenance.
If you do not understand any part of this manual and need assistance, see your dealer.
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head; and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
BLOCKING METHOD
Before performing any service or maintenance, disconnect driveline from tractor PTO.
Never go underneath equipment (lowered to the ground or raised) unless it is properly blocked and secured. Never place any part of the body under­neath equipment or between moveable parts even when the engine has been turned off. Hydraulic system leak down, hydraulic system failures, mechanical failures, or movement of control levers can cause equipment to drop or rotate unexpect­edly and cause severe injury or death. Follow Oper­ator's Manual instructions for working underneath and blocking requirements or have work done by a qualified dealer.
To minimize the potential hazards of working under­neath the cutter, follow these procedures.
1. Jackstands with a load rating of 1000 lbs or more are the only approved blocking device for this cutter. Install a minimum of four jackstands (shown by Xs in Figure 12) under the cutter before working underneath unit.
Do not position jackstands under wheels, axles, or wheel supports. Components can rotate and cause cutter to fall.
2. Consider the overall stability of the blocked unit. Just placing jackstands underneath will not ensure your safety.
The working surface must be level and solid to support the weight on the jackstands. Make sure jackstands are stable, both top and bottom. Make sure cutter is approximately level.
3. With full cutter weight lowered onto jackstands, test blocking stability before working underneath.
4. If cutter is attached to tractor when blocking, set the brakes, remove key, and block cutter before working underneath.
5. Securely block rear tractor wheels, in front and behind. Tighten tractor lower 3-point arm anti-sway mechanism to prevent side-to-side movement.
LUBRICATION INFORMATION
1. Do not let excess grease collect on or around
parts, particularly when operating in sandy areas.
2. See Figure 12 for lubrication points and frequency of lubrication based on normal operating conditions. Severe or unusual conditions may require more frequent lubrication.
3. Use a lithium grease of #2 consistency with a MOLY (molybdenum disulfide) additive for all locations unless otherwise noted. Be sure to clean fittings thoroughly before attaching grease gun. One good pump of most guns is sufficient when the lubrication schedule is followed.
Gearbox Lubrication
1. For gearbox, use a high quality gear oil with a
viscosity index of 80W or 90W and an API service rating of GL-4 or -5 in gearboxes.
2. Fill gearbox until oil runs out the side plug on gearbox. Check gearbox daily for evidence of leakage, and contact your dealer if leakage occurs.
Driveline Lubrication
1. Lubricate the driveline slip joint every eight
operating hours. Failure to maintain proper lubrication could result in damage to U-joints, gearbox, and driveline.
2. Lower cutter to ground, disconnect driveline from tractor PTO shaft, and slide halves apart but do not disconnect from each other.
3. Apply a bead of grease completely around male half where it meets female half. Slide drive halves over each other several times to distribute grease.

Blade Sharpening
NOTICE
When sharpening blades, grind the same
amount on each blade to maintain balance. Replace blades in pairs. Unbalanced blades will cause excessive vibration, which can damage gearbox bearings. Vibration may also cause struc­tural cracks to cutter.
1. Sharpen both blades at the same time to maintain
balance. Follow original sharpening pattern.
A new slip clutch or one that has been in storage over the winter may seize. Before operating the cutter, make sure it will slip by performing the following operation:
Comer
1. Turn off tractor engine and remove key.
2. Loosen nuts on springs until the springs can rotate
freely, yet remain secure on the bolts.
3. Mark outer plates of slip-disc clutch as shown in Figure 15.
4. Securely attach implement to the tractor and start the tractor.
5. Engage PTO for several seconds then quickly disengage it.
6. Turn tractor off and remove key.
7. The friction lining plates should have "slipped".
Check the marks placed on the outer plates of the slip-disc clutch in step 3 to make sure this is the case.
8. If clutch does not slip, check assembly for oil, grease and debris. Clean if necessary.
9. Reassemble clutch and tighten bolts no more than 1/8 of a turn at a time until desired setting of 1.26" on BB48X, BB60X and BB72X cutters is reached. For BB84X cutters, set to 1.36". See Figure 15.
10. If excessive slippage continues, check lining plates for excessive wear. They are 1/8" thick when new and should be replaced after 1/32" of wear to ensure proper operation.
2. Do not sharpen blade to a razor edge—leave at least a 1/16" blunt edge.
3. Do not sharpen back side of blade.
Figure 14. Blade Sharpening
SLIP CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT
The slip clutch is designed to slip so that the gearbox and driveline are protected if the cutter strikes an obstruction.
Walterscheid (BB84X Only)
1. Turn off tractor engine and remove key.
2. Remove driveline from tractor PTO.
3. Loosen six 10 mm cap screws (6) to remove all
tension from Belleville spring plate (5).
4. Hold clutch hub (3) solid and turn shaft to make sure clutch slips.
5. If clutch does not slip freely, disassemble and clean the thrust plate faces (4), flange yoke (1), and clutch hub (3).
6. Reassemble clutch. Tighten Belleville spring (5) until it is against the thrust plate (4) of the clutch, and then back off each of the six nuts by two full revolutions. The gap between Belleville spring and thrust plate should be 1/8" as shown in Figure 15.
7. If a clutch continues to slip when the spring is compressed to 1/8", check friction discs (2) for excessive wear. Discs are 1/8" when new. Replace discs after 1/16" wear. Minimum disc thickness is 1/16".

Incorrect Installation
The information in this section is written for dealer ser­vice personnel. The repair described here requires special skills and tools. If your shop is not properly equipped or your mechanics are not properly trained in this type of repair, you may be time and money ahead to replace complete assemblies.
Before working underneath, disconnect drive­line, raise cutter, lock in transport position, and block cutter securely. Hydraulic system leak down and failure of mechanical or hydraulic system can cause equipment to drop.
Keep all persons away from operator control area while performing adjustments, service, or maintenance.
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head; and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
Leakage can occur at the vertical or horizontal gaskets and shaft seals.
Leakage at the horizontal gasket or seal can be repaired without removing the gearbox from the cutter.
Seal Installation
NOTE: Proper seal installation is important. An improp-
erly installed seal will leak.
1. Clean area in housing where seal outer diameter (OD) seats. Apply a thin coat of Permatex.
2. Inspect area of shaft where seal seats. Remove any burrs or nicks with an emery cloth.
3. Lubricate gear shaft and seal lips.
4. Place seal squarely on housing, spring-loaded lip
toward housing. Select a piece of pipe or tubing with an OD that will sit on the outside edge of the seal but will clear the housing. Tubing with an OD that is too small will bow seal cage and ruin seal.
5. Carefully press seal into housing, avoiding distortion to the metal seal cage.
GEARBOX MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Read this entire section before starting any
repair. Many steps are dependent on each other.
1. Fill gearbox with SAE 80W or 90W gear lube until it runs out the side level plug.
NOTE: Repair to this gearbox is limited to replac­ing bearings, seals, and gaskets. Replacing gears, shafts, and a housing is not cost effective. Pur­chasing a complete gearbox is more economical.
2. Inspect gearbox for leakage and bad bearings. Leakage is a very serious problem and must be corrected immediately. Bearing failure is indicated by excessive noise and side-to-side or end-play in gear shafts.

DEALER SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
Assembly of this cutter is the responsibility of the Woods dealer. It should be delivered to the owner com­pletely assembled, lubricated, and adjusted for normal cutting conditions.
The cutter is shipped partially assembled. Assembly will be easier if aligned and loosely assembled before tightening hardware. Recommended torque values for hardware are located in the Bolt Torque Chart, page
56.
Complete Dealer Check Lists, page 34 when you have completed the assembly.
Full chain, rubber, or steel band shielding must be installed when operating in populated areas or other areas where thrown objects could injure peo­ple or damage property.
• If this machine is not equipped with full chain, rubber, or steel band shielding, operation must
be stopped when anyone comes within 300 feet (92 m).
• This shielding is designed to reduce the risk of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec­tive devices cannot prevent all objects from escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing condition. and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).
Make sure attachment is properly secured, adjusted, and in good operating condition.
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head; and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
