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!

 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.

PREPARATION

 Check that all hardware is properly installed. Always tighten to torque chart specifications unless instructed otherwise in this manual.

 Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic operation and allows loads or equipment components to drop unexpectedly. When connecting equipment or hoses or performing any hydraulic maintenance, purge any air in hydraulic system by operating all hydraulic functions several times. Do this before putting into service or allowing anyone to approach the equipment.

 Make sure all hydraulic hoses, fittings, and valves are in good condition and not leaking before starting power unit or using equipment. Check and route hoses carefully to prevent damage. Hoses must not be twisted, bent sharply, kinked, frayed, pinched, or come into contact with any moving parts. Operate moveable components through full operational range to check clearances. Replace any damaged hoses immediately.

 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.

 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.

 Keep hands and body away from pressurized lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles. Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate skin and will cause serious injury or death.

 Make sure that all operating and service personnel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it must be surgically removed as soon as possible by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene, serious injury, or death will result. CONTACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.

 Never allow children or untrained persons to operate equipment.

DS96-DS120 Safety Rules (Rev. 5/11/2007)

 Make sure attachment is properly secured, adjusted, and in good operating condition.

 Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO spline groove.

 If equipped with driveline guard tether chains, make sure they are attached to the tractor and equipment as shown in the pamphlet that accompanies the driveline. Replace if damaged or broken. Check that driveline guards rotate freely on driveline 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.

 Inspect chain shielding before each use. Replace if damaged.

DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT

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.

Figure 5. DS120 Cat. 3 Standard Hitch Connection

1. Position the hitch pins as shown in Figure 6.

2. Place break link and 1-1/4" OD sleeve in the top

hole of the A-frame and secure.

3. Attach tractor with quick hitch to cutter and secure according to quick hitch manufacturer’s instructions.

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 cutters 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.

SHORTEN 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.

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.

CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Figure 9. Cut Shield

(Rev. 2/6/2009)

MAN0390 (Rev. 6/30/2006)

 On pull-type units with optional hydraulic cutting height adjustment, use a single-acting cylinder with a maximum extended length of 28-1/4" (718 mm) from attaching point center to center.

Cutting height range is from 2" to 15". A hydraulic cylinder or ratchet jack is available for cutting height adjust-

ment on pull-type units and DS120 mounted units. DS96 requires manual adjustment using holes in the tailwheel arms.

DS120 - Using any of the optional height adjustment devices, raise or lower the tailwheel to obtain 2-1/2 to 2-3/4 inches at position B.

When selecting a cutting height, you should consider the area of operation. If the ground is rolling and has mounds the blades could contact, set the cutting height accordingly.

NOTICE

■ Avoid ground contact with blades. Striking

ground with blades produces one of the most damaging shock loads a cutter can encounter. If this occurs repeatedly, the cutter, driveline, and gearboxes will be damaged.

The blade cutting edge is approximately 1-3/4 inches above the bottom of the skid shoes.

Pull-Type Units

To adjust cutter for normal mowing, select a cutting height (example: 4-inches).

Using any of the optional cutting height mechanisms, raise or lower the tailwheel and set position A to 2-1/4 inches. Loosen the jam nut on the attitude rod that runs from the tongue to the tailwheel. Adjust rod in or out until position B is approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inches more than position A. Refer to Figure 11.

Adjust top link to provide 2 inches of clearance between the break link (2) and the rear lift links. See Figure 11. This clearance will allow the cutter to float over uneven terrain.

ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT (PULL-TYPE)

Normal Mowing

For the most economical power use and best cutting results, the cutter should be from 1/2" to 3/4" higher at the rear than at the front.

For grass and weed mowing, adjust cutter to run level or with the front slightly lower.

Shredding

For shredding, it is better to set rear of cutter slightly lower than the front. How much lower depends on the material to be shredded. Determine the best setting for your situation by experimenting. Use a slow ground speed for better shredding.

DRIVELINE ADJUSTMENT (PULL-TYPE)

With the cutting height established, adjust the driveline carrier bearings in the H-frames so that the front driveline is parallel to the ground with cutter in cutting position.

Figure 11. Cutting Height Adjustment

Mounted Units

To adjust cutter for normal mowing, select a cutting height (example: 4").

Adjust tractor 3-point hitch to obtain a distance of 2-1/4 inches at position A. See Figure 11.

DS96 - Using the various holes in the tailwheel arms, align the tailwheel brace with tailwheel arm to obtain a distance greater than 2-1/4 inches at position B.

Adjust top link to provide 2 inches of clearance between the break link (2) and the rear lift links. See Figure 11. This clearance will allow the cutter to float over uneven terrain.

WHEEL SPACING (DS120 ONLY)

Wheels may be adjusted to any position for row crop shredding.

BLADE SELECTION

There are two blade options: standard suction blades and flat double-edge blades.

The standard suction blade is a general use, multi-purpose blade.

The double-edge blade requires less power because it does not mulch or recut material. It is designed for use in areas where blade wear is a problem. Sandy soils are extremely hard on blades.

Blade rotation, viewed from top of cutter, is clockwise for the right crossbar, and counter-clockwise for the left crossbar.

When one cutting surface of a double-edge blade is worn, the opposite one may be used by placing the blade on a crossbar of the opposite rotation. Blades from the right may be used on the left. Blades from the left may be used on the right.

TRACTOR OPERATION

Use care when operating around tree limbs and other low objects.

Use care and reduce ground speed on rough terrain. Always watch for hidden hazards.

Cutter Operation

When beginning operation of the cutter, make sure that all persons are in a safe location. Slowly move into the material with the tractor PTO set at 540 rpm.

Mowing Tips

Being knocked off or falling off tractor can result in serious injury or death.

Only use a tractor with a Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS) and seat belt. Securely fasten seat belt before starting tractor.

The cutter is operated with tractor controls. Engage the PTO at a low rpm to prevent excessive loads on the cutter drive system. Increase throttle to proper PTO speed (540 rpm).

Be sure operator is familiar with all controls and can stop tractor and cutter quickly in an emergency. The operator should give complete, undivided attention to operating tractor and cutter.

OPERATING TECHNIQUE

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.

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. The slip clutch is designed to slip when excessive torsional loads occur.

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.

 Look down and to the rear and make sure area is clear before operating in reverse.

 Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.

 Do not stop, start, or change directions sud-

denly on slopes.

 Use extreme care and reduce ground speed on slopes and rough terrain.

 Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during operation.

 Stop power unit and equipment immediately upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine, remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before resuming operation.

Maximum recommended ground speed for cutting or shredding is 6 miles per hour. Adjust tractor ground speed by using higher or lower gears to provide a clean cut without lugging tractor engine.

Tall material should be cut twice. Cut material higher the first pass. Cut at desired height at 90 degrees the second pass.

Remember, sharp blades produce cleaner cuts and use less power.

Before entering an area, analyze it to determine the best procedure. Consider the height and type of material to be cut and the terrain type (hilly, level or rough, etc.).

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.

Always operate tractor PTO at 540 rpm to maintain blade speed and to produce a clean cut.

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.

(Rev. 2/6/2009) MAN0390 (Rev. 6/30/2006)

TRANSPORTING

 The maximum transport speed for towed and semi-mounted machines is 20 mph (32 km/h). Regardless of the maximum speed capability of the towing tractor, do not exceed the implement’s maximum transport speed. Doing so could result in:

• Loss of control of the implement and tractor

• Reduced or no ability to stop during braking

• Implement tire failure

• Damage to the implement or its components.

OWNER SERVICE

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 entanglement 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

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

Do not let excess grease collect on or around parts, particularly when operating in sandy areas.

See Figure 12 for lubrication points and frequency or lubrication based on normal operating conditions. Severe or unusual conditions may require more frequent lubrication.

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. 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 the lower hole on back side of center gearbox or side hole on spindle gearboxs. Check gearboxs 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.

4. Grease side drive yoke where yoke attaches to side gearbox.

excessive wear. Discs are 1/8" when new. Replace discs after 1/16" wear. Minimum disc thickness is 1/16".

RUBBER DISK REPLACEMENT

The flexible coupler side drive is designed to flex when striking heavy objects or during start-up to protect gearboxes. The rubber disks will wear out over time and require replacement much like slip clutch disks. To maximize rubber disk life, lower tractor engine speed to an idle when engaging the PTO and avoid striking the ground with cutter blades.

Periodically inspect the disks for signs of cracking. A disk may run for some time after a crack starts but this is the first sign that disk replacement is required in the future.

4. 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.

5. If a clutch continues to slip when the spring is compressed to 1/8", check friction discs (2) for

To replace the disks, remove hardware items (6, 7, 8, and 9). Remove sleeves (7) from old disk and install in new disk. Reassemble and torque bolts to 85 lbs-ft. See Figure 16. Take special care not to rotate gearbox shaft and throw blades out of time. If rubber disks have failed and blades are hitting, you will need to re-time the blades per instructions on page 34.

SERVICING TIRES SAFELY

Used Aircraft Tires (Figure 17)

Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the proper equipment and experience to perform the job.

Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld or heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause an increase in air pressure and result in a tire explosion. Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.

When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and an extension hose long enough to allow you to stand to the side — not in front of or over the tire assembly. Use a safety cage if available.

● Replace any safety decals that are missing or not

readable.

Periodically or Before Extended Storage

● Clean large debris such as clumps of dirt, grass,

crop residue, etc. from machine.

● Remove the remainder using a low-pressure water

spray.

1. Be careful when spraying near scratched or torn safety decals or near edges of decals as water spray can peel decal off surface.

2. Be careful when spraying near chipped or scratched paint as water spray can lift paint.

3. If a pressure washer is used, follow the advice of the pressure washer manufacturer.

● Inspect machine and replace worn or damaged

parts.

● Sand down scratches and the edges of areas of

missing paint and coat with Woods spray paint of matching color (purchase from your Woods dealer).

Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, damaged rims, or missing lug bolts and nuts.

Never remove split rim assembly hardware (A) with the tire inflated.

● Replace any safety decals that are missing or not

readable (supplied free by your Woods dealer). See Safety Decals section for location drawing.

Pipe or tube must press at outer edge of seal.

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.

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.

SEAL REPLACEMENT

Recommended sealant for gearbox repair is Perma-

DEALER SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS

 Full chain or rubber 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 or rubber shielding, operation must be stopped when anyone comes within 300 feet (92 m).

 Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO spline groove.

These instructions are for the assembly of the DS96 and DS120 mounted and pull-type cutters. Many of the procedures apply to all units. When an instruction applies to a specific unit, the section heading will indicate which unit. Assembly of options may not apply to all units.

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

73.

Select a suitable working area. A smooth hard surface, such as concrete, will make assembly much quicker. Open parts boxes and lay out parts and hardware to make location easy. Refer to illustrations, accompanying text, parts lists and exploded view drawings.

It is possible for objects to ricochet

Complete check lists on page 49 when you have completed the assembly.
