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.
Single Spindle HD (Rev. 9/15/2006)
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.
Make sure driveline guard tether chains 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.
Before starting the 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.

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.

MAN0680 (11/30/2007)
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
WARNING
3" Desired cutting height
+ 11.5" Distance blade cutting edge is below deck
= 14.5"
c) Adjust the front-to-rear attitude from 1/2" to
3/4" higher than the front.
CHECK CHAIN ADJUSTMENT
1. Refer to Check Chain Installation (Optional), page
33 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 your cutting level.
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.
■
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.
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.
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 level with or 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 down.
2. Check chain bracket
3. Check chain
Figure 9. Check Chain Adjustment
DRIVELINE INSTALLATION
(TRACTOR PTO)
To Install:
Pull locking collar back and at the same time push
driveline onto tractor PTO shaft until locking device
engages.
To Remove:
Hold driveline into position, pull locking collar back, and
slide driveline off tractor PTO shaft.
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 11.5" 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 14.5" above the ground:
MAN0680 (11/30/2007)

Operation 15
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. The slip clutch is designed
to slip when excessive torsional 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.
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
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.

CAUTION
4. 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.
5. With full cutter weight lowered onto jackstands, test
blocking stability before working underneath.
6. If cutter is attached to tractor when blocking, set
the brakes, remove key, and block cutter before
working underneath.
7. Securely block rear tractor wheels, in front and
behind. Tighten tractor lower 3-point arm anti-sway
mechanism to prevent side-to-side movement.
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
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 or 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 the cutter before working
underneath unit.
2. Do not position jackstands under wheels, axles, or
wheel supports. Components can rotate and cause
cutter to fall.
3. Consider the overall stability of the blocked unit.
Just placing jackstands underneath will not ensure
your safety.

LUBRICATION INFORMATION
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.
Do not let excess grease collect on or around parts,
particularly when operating in sandy areas.
See Figure 11 for lubrication points and frequency or
lubrication based on normal operating conditions.
Severe or unusual conditions may require more frequent lubrication.
Owner Service 17
Gearbox Lubrication
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. 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.
SLIP CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT
The slip clutch is designed to slip so that the gearbox
and driveline are protected if the cutter strikes an
obstruction.
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:
1. Turn off tractor engine and remove key.
2. Remove driveline from tractor PTO.
3. Loosen six 12 mm cap screws (7) to remove all
tension from the compression springs (8).
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 flange yoke (1), clutch hub (3), drive plate (4),
drive plate (5), and thrust plate faces (6).
6. Reassemble clutch.
7. Compress each of the six compression springs (8)
by tightening the six cap screws (7) and lock nuts
(10). The compression springs should be
compressed to a height of 1-7/16", not including
washer (9). The minimum spring height is 1.36".
See Figure 12.
8. If a clutch continues to slip when the springs are
compressed to 1.36", check friction discs (2) for
excessive wear. Discs are 1/8" when new. Replace
discs after 1/16" wear.

Troubleshooting 21
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, read manual
instructions, securely block up, and check stability.
Secure blocking prevents equipment from dropping due to hydraulic leak down, hydraulic system
failure, or mechanical component failure.
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
Refer to Figure 17.
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,
