OPERATING YOUR TRAIL CUTTER

The operation of any mower can produce foreign objects to be thrown into the eyes, resulting in severe eye damage. Always wear certified safety glasses or wide-vision safety goggles over spectacles before starting any cutting machine and while operating such a machine.

The operation of any mower produces sound waves that are damaging to the human ear. Ear protection is recommended.

CAUTION!

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machine and the mowing activity.

Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

INTENDED USE

The 44” Trail Cutter is designed to clear dense areas of grass and cut saplings up to 3” thick on meadows and small estates.

It is not intended to create a finish cut on lawns

. Your Trail Cutter should be towed behind an ATV, golf cart, lawn tractor or other approved vehicle. It is not recommended for speeds exceeding 5 MPH.

ꉠ

ATTACHING TRAIL CUTTER TO TOW VEHICLE

• • Back vehicle up to desired towing position.

Offset the Trail Cutter to the side opposite the tow vehicle discharge (if any).

• This prevents the tow vehicle from throwing grass into Trail Cutter engine.

Using the 7365 2” ball coupler, connect the hitch to the vehicle your machine will be towed with. Once attached adjust the level of the mower by rotating the adjustment rod (See figure 2 page 11).

TRANSPORTING CUTTER

• Stop Trail Cutter.

• • Place Trail Cutter deck in its highest position.

When transporting without the use of a tow vehicle, remove spark plug wire and place it where it cannot contact the spark plug.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

• Make sure the tow vehicle parking brake is set.

• • • Disengage cutting blades.

Reduce engine to idle speed and allow engine to run momentarily for cooling.

Turn the key to the off position.

5

ENGAGING BLADES Note:

Do not attempt to start the unit with the PTO switch in the

“ENGAGED”

position.

• • • Engage blades by pulling out on the PTO switch.

Push PTO switch in to disengage blades.

See detail on page 17 figure – 10

The braking system is applied when the blades become disengaged. It is designed to bring the blades to a quick stop (approximately 10 seconds). The electric clutch comes with an internal brake.

BREAKING IN YOUR CUTTER

• Set the vehicle parking brake and chock the wheels to prevent accidental rolling.

• • While engine is running, engage the blade control.

In a safe environment, (i.e. no children or pets) allow the blades to rotate and the engine to • run at full throttle for 5 minutes, breaking in the belt for longer life.

Disengage the blades and shut off the engine.

STARTING THE ENGINE See engine manufacturer’s recommendations for the type and amount of oil and fuel used.

Trail Cutters equipped with an electric start engine will need a battery (sold separately). Swisher recommends using a standard “U1” battery. • Make sure the tow vehicle parking brake is set, mower is level, and blades are • • disengaged. Engine must be level to accurately check and fill oil. Do not overfill.

═Ӭ Check spark plug wire, oil, and fuel.

Check all electrical connections for buildup of debris.

• • • • Set engine idle to “CHOKE” position.

Turn key to the “RUN” position, then to the “START” position.

Set engine idle at maximum RPM for best performance.

Allow engine to run a few moments before engaging blades.

CAUTION: SHUT OFF THE CUTTER ENGINE AND REMOVE SPARK PLUG WIRE FROM SPARK PLUG BEFORE MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS TO THE CUTTER.

IMPORTANT:

This engine is not equipped with a spark arrester muffler. It is a violation of California Public Resource Code Section 4442 to use or operate the engine on any forest-covered, brush-covered, or grass-covered land. Other states or federal areas may have similar laws.

6

CUTTER HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

• • There is approximately 4” of height adjustment.

Rotate height adjust crank handle in a clockwise direction to lower the mower deck. • • • Rotate counterclockwise to lift the mower deck.

Dense areas should be cut twice.

Push handle down to lock height position.

Adjust the top link located on the front of the hitch to level the mower after adjusting the cutting height (See figure 2 page 11).

TOW HITCH OFFSET

• When offsetting the cutter do so to the side opposite the discharge of the tow • vehicle if towing with a mower.

Swisher recommends if the tow vehicle is equipped with a mid-mount mower to overlap the cut approximately 6”. This may vary depending on mowing terrain, obstacles, and/or tow vehicle. Always keep safety the first priority.

STOPPING THE CUTTING SESSION

• Bring tow vehicle to a complete stop, set the parking brake and disengage blades.

• • Turn key switch to the “OFF” position.

SUGGESTED CUTTING PRACTICES

• Operate cutter engine at full throttle to assure the best cutting performance and • • maximum material discharge.

Allow wet grass to dry. Wet grass will clump and collect under the mowing deck.

Cutter should be started with tow vehicle in low gear and increased only as safe mowing conditions permit. Cutting speed should not exceed 5 MPH.

• Cutting conditions and the types of grass will vary from place to place. You may find when cutting dense areas that the pressure of the wheel tracks may cause the grass to be pushed down and not effectively mowed. If this happens you may want to mow the area twice. Once with the cutter raised and the second cutting at the desired height. The second cutting should be at a right angle from the previous for best results.

7

• • Reducing the travel speed will help cut dense growth. This allows the blades the time necessary to make its initial cut, and regain momentum to continue cutting. The engine may stall if you are mowing too fast!

Do not attempt to cut areas that the tow vehicle cannot maneuver through and/or slopes that you do not feel comfortable riding.

CUTTER MAINTENANCE

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

The warranty on this cutter does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, operator must maintain unit as instructed in this manual.

Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to maintain your unit properly. Refer to your engine manual for recommended fuel, oil, and service parts.

BEFORE EACH SEASON

A new spark plug and clean air filter assure proper air fuel mixture and help your engine run better and last longer.

• Replace the spark plug.

• • Clean or replace the air filter.

Check blades and belts for wear.

BEFORE EACH USE

• 䈀 , Check engine oil level. Do this twice to ensure an accurate reading.

• Check condition of air filter and clean or replace if necessary.

• • • Check blade operation.

Check for loose fasteners.

Lubricate threads of adjustment rod P/N 4006. See Fig 5 pg 13.

DAILY MAINTENANCE

Make sure all nuts and bolts are tight and cotter pins and retainer springs are secure.

Keep blades sharp. Observe all safety precautions.

BLADE CARE AND SERVICE

For best results cutter blades must be kept sharp. The blades can be sharpened with a few strokes of a file or grinding wheel. Do Not attempt to sharpen while on the cutter.

Important:

Replace blades that have been damaged or deeply nicked.

Important:

Check blade and spindle hardware on a regular basis to make sure nuts are tight.

CAUTION: DO NOT HANDLE CUTTER BLADES WITH BARE HANDS. CARELESS OR IMPROPER HANDLING MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY.

8

GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING

The unit is not cutting level.

• Level deck. Check air pressure of all tires; make sure they are equal. See • tires for maximum inflation.
