SAFETY RULES
Note:(Safety instructions are important!! While these instructions may seem length or redundant, they are presented for your safety)
TRAINING
■ Almost all accidents arising from the use of equipment such as this that has resulted in injury or death would have been avoided had instructions such as these been adhered to.
■ If you do not understand any part of this manual, contact your dealer for assistance.
■ Dangerous situations can arise quickly. Know your controls and how to stop the engine and attachment in an emergency. Fractions of a second can be extremely important.
■ Do not allow anyone to operate the equipment without first requiring them to read this manual and giving proper instruction.
■ Never allow children (< 16 years of age) or untrained persons to operate the equipment.
PREPARATION
■ Check that all hardware is properly installed.
■ Loose clothing can become caught in moving parts. Entanglement with the rotating PTO shaft is the
#1 cause of death and injury with equipment such as this. Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to reduce this risk.
■ Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head. Wear a respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
■ Make sure the cutter is properly secured, adjusted, lubricated, and in good operating condition.
■ Make sure spring-activated locking pin slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO spline groove.
■ Connect PTO driveline directly to power unit PTO shaft. Never use adapter sleeves or adapter shafts. Adapters can cause drive-line failures.
■ Before starting power unit, check drive-line guards for damage. Do not operate without replacing any damaged guards. Ensure the guards rotate freely on the drive-line. If they do not, repair or replace bearings before operating the cutter.
■ Tractor must be equipped with Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) or ROPS cab and seat belt.
ALWAYS keep seat belt securely fastened. Falling off the tractor can, and does, result in death.
Keep foldable ROPS system in ‘locked up’ position at all times.
■ Inspect guards before use. Replace if damaged. DO NOT OPERATE the cutter without guards in place.
■ Accumulation of debris can present hazards. Remove accumulated debris from the cutter and tractor before use.
■ Make sure all safety decals are installed and free from damage. Replace if damaged.
■ A minimum of 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.
PAGE 5
■ Inspect and clear the area of stones, branches, or other hard objects that might be thrown, causing injury or damage.
OPERATION
■ Do not allow bystanders in the area when operating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servicing the cutter.
■ This machine is equipped with front and rear guards. DO NOT operate the machine without the guards in place.
■ Never direct discharge toward people, animals, or property.
■ 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.
■ NEVER ALLOW RIDERS ON POWER UNIT OR CUTTER!
■ Always sit in the tractor 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 tractor engine.
■ Operate tractor PTO at 540 RPM. Do not exceed 540 RPM.
■ Do not operate PTO during transport.
■ Look down and to the rear and make sure area is clear of people, animals, property, or foreign objects before operating in reverse. Children often do not understand the severity of the potential danger. A major portion of mower/cutter accidents involve children being ran over during reverse operation of the mower/cutter.
■ Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.
■ 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 tractor unit and equipment immediately upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine, remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before operation resumes.
■ Leak down or failure of mechanical or hydraulic system can cause equipment to drop.
■ Make certain all movement of equipment components has stopped before exiting the tractor.
MAINTENANCE
■ Before performing any service or maintenance, disconnect drive-line from tractor PTO.
■ Before working underneath the equipment, disconnect drive-line, raise cutter, and block cutter securely. Hydraulic system leaking down and failure of mechanical or hydraulic system can cause equipment to drop.
PAGE 6
■ Do not allow bystanders in the area when operating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servicing equipment.
■ Keep all persons away from operator control area while performing adjustments, service, or maintenance.
■ Do not modify or alter (or permit anyone else to modify or alter) the equipment or any of its components in any way.
■ 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.
■ Make certain all movement of equipment components has stopped before approaching for service.
■ Frequently check blades. They should be sharp, free of nicks and cracks, and securely fastened.

■ Your dealer can supply genuine replacement blades. Substitute blades may not meet original equipment specifications and may be dangerous.
■ Check that the cotter pin and roll pin (gearbox output shaft and through the top of the tail-wheel shaft) are installed securely to ensure equipment is in a safe condition before placing cutter into service.
STORAGE
■ Keep children and bystanders away from storage area.
■ Disconnect cutter driveshaft and secure up and off the ground. Raise cutter with 3- point hitch.
Place blocks under cutter side skirts. Lower cutter onto blocks. Disconnect cutter from tractor 3- point hitch and carefully drive tractor away from cutter.
CHILDREN
Extremely tragic accidents can, and do, occur if the operator is not continually alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to machinery and the mowing activity. NEVER assume that children will remain where you last saw them.
■ Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful care of responsible adult other than the operator.
■ As this machine is capable of, and used for, cutting relatively tall grass, always be vigilant in monitoring the field ahead. Accidents in which children were obscured by tall grass and not easily seen by the operator have occurred with equipment of this type. The results are often life shattering for all involved. Be constantly aware during operation!
■ Immediately turn the equipment off if a child enters the area.
■ Never allow children to operate the equipment (<16 years of age).
■ Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may block your view of a child.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING
The purpose of this manual is to assist you in operating and maintaining your cutter. Read it carefully. It furnishes information and instructions that will help you achieve years of dependable performance. These instructions are the product of extensive field experience, engineering data, accident reports, and statistical data. Although some information may be general in nature due to unknown and varying operating conditions, through experience and adherence to these instructions, you should be able to develop sound operating procedures suitable to your particular situation.
The illustrations and data used in this manual were current at the time of printing, but due to possible running changes, your machine may vary slightly in detail. Bad Boy Cutters reserves the right to redesign and change the machines as necessary without notification.
Throughout this manual, references are made to right and left sides of the equipment. These directions are determined by standing behind the equipment. Also, blade rotation is counterclockwise. This direction is as viewed from the top of the cutter.
OPERATION
The operator is responsible for the safe operation of the cutter. The operator must be properly trained.
Operators should be familiar with the cutter, the tractor utilized, and all safety practices before starting operation.
This standard-duty cutter is designed for grass, weeds, and small brush. Recommended mowing speed for most conditions is between 2-5 mph.
DANGER
This machine is equipped with front and rear guards. DO NOT operate the machine without the guards in place.
PAGE 8
ATTACH CUTTER TO TRACTOR
CAUTION
■ Make sure drive-line will not bottom out at the shortest length and that it has at least 1/3 overlap at its longest length.
■ Select a top link mounting pin that will allow floating link to swing freely through the cutter A- frame bars.
1. Attach the tongue to the Tractor.
2. Attach the PTO. Ensure that the Driveline is the proper length (refer to page 10 for instructions to shorten the driveline).
3. Attach the hydraulic line.
4. On level ground, level the mowing deck by adjusting the leveling rod turnbuckles. This will help to ensure an even cut.
DRIVELINE INSTALLATION (TRACTOR PTO)
WARNING
Make sure spring-activated locking pin slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO spline groove.
INSTALLATION
Push spring-activated locking pin and at the same time, push the driveline onto tractor PTO shaft until the locking pin is able to engage the shaft.
REMOVAL
Hold driveline securely in position, push the spring-activated locking pin and slide driveline off tractor
PTO shaft.
PAGE 9
DRIVELINE ADJUSTMENT
Attach the cutter to the tractor 3-point hitch. 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; this can damage the driveline during operation. If the distance is too small, the driveline may bottom out during operation and damage the cutter or tractor. If the driveline is too short, please call your Bad
Boy Cutter dealer for a longer driveline.
If the driveline is too long, follow the instructions below for shortening the driveline.
SHORTEN DRIVELINE
1. Move the cutter up and down to find the shortest possible distance between tractor PTO shaft and gearbox input shaft.
2. Separate the driveline into its two halves and connect them to the tractor PTO and gearbox.
3. Place driveline halves parallel to one another in order to find the necessary driveline length reduction.
4. Measure from the end of the shield (tractor half) to the base of the bell shield (cutter half; see figure below). This is measurement ‘A’ in the figure. Add 19/16˝ to measurement ‘A’.
5. Using a hacksaw, cut the overall length from the end of the plastic, cylindrical driveline shield
(tractor half) as indicated in the figure.
6. Place this cutoff portion of the shield against the metal shaft (of the same driveline half) and use as a guide. Mark and cut the metal shaft.
7. Repeat step 6 for the other half of the drive.
8. File and clean the 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 pin slides freely and locks driveline to PTO shaft.
DRIVELINE INTERFERENCE CHECK
1. Check for clearance between drive-line and cutter deck.
PAGE 10
OPERATING TECHNIQUE
■ The operating power for the cutter is provided by the tractor’s PTO. Operate the PTO at 540 RPM
(never exceed). Know how to stop the tractor and cutter quickly and safely in the event of an emergency.
■ Engage the PTO at a low engine RPM. Engagement of the PTO at high engine RPM places the driveshaft and gearbox under large stresses. After the PTO is engaged, raise PTO speed to 540
RPM. Maintain this PTO speed throughout the cutting operation.
■ Gearbox protection is provided by way of a slip-clutch. This allows the drive-line to either ‘slip’ under excessive torsion loads. It is in this manner that the gearbox is isolated from potentially damaging shocks. Under abnormal torque loads, this model also provide protection to the drive-line itself. Slip- clutches require service to keep them fully functional. A neglected slip-clutch is akin to having no protection at all as they can lose their ability to slip.
■ Move slowly into material. Adjust tractor ground speed to provide a clean cut without lugging the tractor engine. Proper ground speed will depend on the terrain and the material’s height, type, density, and moisture content. The operator will be able to determine appropriate ground speeds for different conditions. Normal ground speed ranges from between 2 and 5 m ph.
■ Under certain conditions, the tractor tires may push the grass down. This can result in an uneven cut. When this occurs, reduce your ground speed, but maintain the PTO at 540 RPM. Lowering your travel speed will allow the grass more time to rebound.
PAGE 11
STORAGE
WARNING
■ Disconnect the cutter driveshaft and secure up off the ground. Raise cutter to the desired height.
Place blocks under cutter skirt. Slowly lower the cutter onto the blocks.
■ Disconnect the hydraulic line.
■ Disconnect the front hitch section from the tractor and carefully drive tractor away from c utter.
■ Before leaving the area, check to ensure the cutter is stable.
■ Keep children and bystanders away from the storage a rea.
PRE-OPERATION CHECKLIST
OWNER/OPERATORS RESPONSIBILITY!
■ Review and follow all safety rules ([pages 6-8]) and machine safety decals.
■ Ensure the equipment is properly and securely attached to the tractor.
■ Make sure driveline spring-operated locking pin slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO spline groove.
■ 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 the side of the gearbox.
■ Check that all hardware is properly installed and secured.
■ Check that blades are sharp, secure, free of cracks, and that the cutting edge is positioned to lead in a counterclockwise rotation (as viewed from the top of the unit).
■ If using shields or guards, check that they are properly installed and in good condition. Replace if damaged.
■ Check cutting height, front-to-rear attitude, and top link adjustment.
■ Place tractor PTO and transmission in neutral before starting engine.
■ Inspect area to be cut and remove stones, branches, or other hard objects that may be thrown and cause injury or damage.

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 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.
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 body part 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. Jack stands (4) with a load rating of at least 1000 lbs. are the only approved blocking device for this cutter. Install a minimum of four jack stands, one under each corner of the cutter before working underneath the unit. Do not position jack stands under wheels, axles, or wheel supports.
Components can rotate and cause the cutter to fall.
2. Consider (and check) the overall stability of the blocked unit before working underneath. The working surface must be level and solid to properly support the jack stands while they are supporting the cutter. Make sure the cutter is approximately level.
PAGE 13
3. With full cutter weight lowered onto jack stands, test the blocking stability carefully, but vigorously, to ensure its stability.
4. If cutter is attached to tractor when blocking, set the brakes, remove the key, and block the cutter before working underneath. Also, securely chock the rear tractor wheels (both in front and behind) and tighten the tractor’s lower 3-point arm anti-sway mechanism to prevent side-to-side m o v e m e n t .
LUBRICATION
1.
Do not allow excess grease to collect on or around parts, particularly when operating in sandy
2.
See figures below 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 from most guns is sufficient when the lubrication schedule is followed.
4.
Equipment is shipped without gear oil in the gearbox. Your gearbox needs 32 oz. of SAE gear oil;
75W-90 is recommended for ambient temperatures of -5F to 60F, 85W-140 is recommended for ambient temperatures of 40 F to 120 F. The oil level will be at the same level as the horizontal input shaft when filled properly. The gearbox has a side plug that is designed to allow for oil level checks.
If oil runs out of the hole when the plug is removed, the oil level is sufficient.

BLADE
SERVICING
Blade Removal
If blade bolt is seized in stump jumper’s crossbar and extreme force will be needed to remove it, support crossbar from below to prevent gearbox damage.
1.
Disconnect driveline from tractor PTO.
2.
Raise cutter and block securely.
3.
Align the crossbar of the stump jumper with blade access hole in the cutter frame. Remove blade bolt nut and lock washer. Carefully drive bolt out of crossbar.
4.
Rotate and repeat for the second blade.
Blade Installation
CAUTION
■ Your dealer can supply genuine replacement blades. Substitute blades may not meet original equipment specifications and may be dangerous.
■ Blade rotation is counterclockwise when looking down on the cutter. Be sure to install blade cutting edge to lead in counterclockwise rotation.
■ Always replace or sharpen both blades at the same time. Failure to do this could result in an imbalance which can cause the cutter to vibrate violently.
PAGE 15
1.
Inspect the blade bolts for nicks or gouges and, if found, replace the damaged blade bolt(s).
2.
Insert blade bolt through the blade. Blade should swivel on blade bolt; if it doesn’t, determine the cause and correct.
3.
Align crossbar with blade access hole in cutter frame. Apply a liberal coating of an anti-seize product to the blade bolt and crossbar hole. Make sure blade offset is away from cutter. Push blade bolt through crossbar.
4.
Insert lock washer and nut through blade access hole in the cutter deck. Install on blade bolt and tighten to 450 ft-lbs. using a 111/16˝socket.
Blade Sharpening
■ Closely inspect blades for cracks or nicks. If damage is found, replace blades inpairs.
■ When sharpening blades, grind the same amount on each blade to maintain balance. Replace blades in pairs. Unbalanced blades will cause excessive vibration, which can damage gearbox bearings.
1. Sharpen both blades at the same time to maintain balance. Follow original sharpening pattern.
2. Do no sharpen blade to a razor edge: leave at least a1/16˝ blunt edge.
3. Do not sharpen back side of blade.
SLIP-CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT
The slip-clutch (if equipped) is designed to slip so that the gearbox and the driveline are protected if the cutter blades strike an obstruction.
A new slip clutch or one that has been in storage over the winter may seize, rendering the shaft and gearbox completely unprotected. Before operating the cutter, make sure it will slip by performing the following operation:
1. Turn off tractor and remove key.
2. Loosen nuts on springs until the springs can rotate freely, yet remain secure on the bolts.
3. Make in-line marks on the outer plates of the slip-clutch.
4. Securely attach cutter to the tractor and start the tractor.
5. Engage the PTO for several seconds then quickly disengage it.
6. Turn tractor off and remove key.
7. The friction plates should have “slipped.” If the marks made previously are no longer in-line with each other, this is the case.
8. If the clutch does not slip, check assembly for oil, grease, and debris.
9. Reassemble clutch and tighten bolts no more than 1/8 of a turn at a time until the desired setting of
1.15˝ spring length is reached.
10. If excessive slippage continues, check lining plates for excessive wear. The slip plates are 1/8˝ thick when new. They should be replaced after 1/32˝ of wear to ensure proper operation.

DEALER’S CHECKLISTS
PRE-DELIVERY CHECK LIST
It is the dealer’s responsibility to fully assemble and inspect the cutter before the customer takes delivery of the unit. The following check list is provided as a memory aid to ensure all points are inspected. Check off the items below as they are completed.
Check the torque of all bolts to be sure they meet the values given in the Fastener Torque Chart (pg.22)
Check that the cotter pin is properly secured.
Check the PTO shaft for proper installation.
Check that the gearbox is properly filled with gear oil and that no seals are leaking.
Grease all lubrication points as shown in Lubrication (pgs. 14-15).
____ Check that blades have been properly installed. The cutting edge should lead in a counterclockwise motion when viewed from above.
DELIVERY CHECKLIST
Explain the importance of periodic inspections and lubrication to the customer.
____ Present the Owner’s Manual to the customer and request that the customer and all other users read the material before operation. Explain the importance of the safety rules.
____ Explain the importance of front ballasts. This unit weighs 650 pounds; the customer needs to weigh the tractor and equipment to ensure at least 20% of the total weight is on the tractor’s front wheels. ____
Explain that if the unit is transported on or along a roadway, safety devices (such as reflector decals) should be utilized in order to alert motorists of the equipment’s presence.
■ IMPORTANT- The gearbox was not filled with gear oil at the factory. It must be filled before the cutter can be placed into service (see Lubrication, pg. 14). Failure to fill the gearbox with the proper quantity of gear oil will result in damage to the gearbox.
