GENERAL INFORMATION
The purpose of this manual is to assist you in operating
and maintaining your equipment. Read it carefully. It
furnishes information and instructions that will help you
achieve years of dependable performance.
These instructions have been compiled from extensive
field experience and engineering data. Some information may be general in nature, due to unknown and
varying operating conditions. However, through experience and these instructions, you should be able to
develop procedures suitable to your particular situation.
The illustrations and data used in this manual were current at the time of printing. However, due to possible
inline production changes, your machine may vary
slightly in detail. We reserve the right to redesign and
change the machines as may be necessary without
notification.
Throughout this manual, references are made to right
and left directions. These are determined by standing
behind the tractor facing the direction of forward travel.

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!
from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable
ROPS systems in “locked up” position at all times.
Make sure all safety decals are installed.
Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for
location.)
A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment
weight must be on the tractor front wheels when
attachments are in transport position. Without this
weight, front tractor wheels could raise up resulting in loss of steering. The weight may be attained
with front wheel weights, ballast in tires or front
tractor weights. Weigh the tractor and equipment.
Do not estimate.
TRAINING
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 shut down
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 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.
Make sure attachment is properly secured,
adjusted, and in good operating condition.
Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or
ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely
RBC60/LRC60 SR (Rev. 8/26/2005)
OPERATION
Consult local utilities before working. Know
location of all underground cables, pipelines, overhead wires, and other hazards in working area and
avoid contact.
Keep bystanders away from equipment.
Do not operate or transport equipment while
under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Operate only in daylight or good artificial light.
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from
equipment while engine is running. Stay clear of all
moving parts.
Always comply with all state and local lighting
and marking requirements.
Before transporting, pivot the unit so red reflectors face the rear.
Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.
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 systems in “locked up” position at all times.
Always sit in power unit seat when operating
controls or starting engine. Securely fasten seat
belt, place transmission in neutral, engage brake,
and ensure all other controls are disengaged
before starting power unit engine.
Look down and to the rear and make sure area
is clear before operating in reverse.
Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.

SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
MAINTENANCE
Do not stop, start, or change directions suddenly 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.
Before changing positions of manual swing, tilt,
or angle positions:
• Park tractor on level ground, apply parking
brake, level implement boom, shut off tractor,
and remove key.
• Make manual changes slowly and carefully
to prevent hazardous movement of mechanisms.
• Never stand in positions where you could
become entrapped during adjustment changes
or if the 3-point hitch suddenly lowers.
Always secure lock pins with safety pins to prevent lock pins from bumping out of the positioning
holes. Failure to do so may result in accidents and/
or damage to blade.
Before dismounting power unit or performing
any service or maintenance, follow these steps:
disengage power to equipment, lower the 3-point
hitch and all raised components to the ground,
operate valve levers to release any hydraulic pressure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove key,
and unfasten seat belt.
NEVER GO UNDERNEATH EQUIPMENT. 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.
• Service work does not require going underneath.
• Read Operator's Manual for service instructions or have service performed by a qualified
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.
Make sure attachment is properly secured,
adjusted, and in good operating condition.

6 Safety
Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
Tighten all bolts, nuts and screws to torque
chart specifications. Check that all cotter pins are
installed securely to ensure equipment is in a safe
condition before putting unit into service.
Make sure all safety decals are installed.
Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for
location.)
STORAGE
Block equipment securely for storage.
Keep children and bystanders away from stor-
age area.
Follow manual instructions for storage.
