SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
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.
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 1-800-3196637.) 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.

DRIVELINE INSTALLATION (TRACTOR
PTO)
WARNING
Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar
slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO
spline groove.
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.
To Install:
Pull locking collar back and at the same time push the
driveline onto tractor PTO shaft until locking device
engages.
3. Place driveline halves parallel to one another to
determine how much to shorten the driveline.
To Remove:
Hold driveline into position, pull locking collar back, and
slide driveline off tractor PTO shaft.
DP2
Figure 6. Drive Halves Placed Parallel
Figure 5. Lock Collar
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.
DRIVELINE ADJUSTMENT
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 normal
operation. There must be at least 4 inches of engagement at the cutter’s lowest possible point of operation.
Driveline must not bottom out when raised to the maximum height possible.
A
1-9/16"
DP3

If driveline is too short, please call your Woods dealer
for a longer driveline.
MAN0670 (11/16/2007)
5. Cut the shield to the overall dimension.
Operation 15
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
WARNING
Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
DP4
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.
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.
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.
4. To raise rear of cutter, move tailwheel arm down.
5. To raise front of cutter, raise tractor 3-point arms.
DP5
Figure 9. Cut Shaft to Length
7. Repeat step 6 for the other half of the drive.
8. File and clean cut ends of both drive halves.
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.
The cutting height is the distance between the blade
and the ground. The blades are approximately 5.5"
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 8.5" above the ground:
3" Desired cutting height
+ 5.5" Distance blade cutting edge is below deck
= 8.5" Distance from top of deck to the ground
c) Adjust the front-to-rear attitude, the rear should be
from 1/2" to 3/4" higher than the front.
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.
16 Operation
Figure 10. Cutting Height Adjustment
MAN0670 (11/16/2007)
SHREDDING MATERIAL
For shredding, set the cutter lower at rear. Determine
how much lower to set the rear by experimenting in different situations.
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.
STORAGE
WARNING
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
___ 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 cutting edge is positioned to lead in a counterclockwise rotation.
4. Always operate tractor PTO at 540 rpm to maintain
proper blade speed and to produce a clean cut.
___ Check that shields and guards are properly
installed and in good condition. Replace if damaged.
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.
___ Check cutting height, front-to-rear attitude, and
top link adjustment.
MAN0670 (11/16/2007)
___ 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.
Operation 17
OWNER SERVICE
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
WARNING
Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
CAUTION
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
WARNING
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 11) under each corner of the cutter
before working underneath unit.
Do not position jackstands under wheels, axles, or
wheel supports. Components can rotate and cause
cutter to fall.
18 Owner Service
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 11 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.

DEALER SERVICE
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.
WARNING
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.
CAUTION
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.
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.
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 improperly 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,
distortion to the metal seal cage.

BOLT TORQUE CHART
Always tighten hardware to these values unless a different torque value or tightening procedure is listed for a specific
application.
Fasteners must always be replaced with the same grade as specified in the manual parts list.
Always use the proper tool for tightening hardware: SAE for SAE hardware and Metric for metric hardware.
Make sure fastener threads are clean and you start thread engagement properly.
All torque values are given to specifications used on hardware defined by SAE J1701 MAR 99 & J1701M JUL 96.
