The lower 3-point arms of the 3-point hitch must be 
stabilized to prevent side-to-side movement. Most 
tractors have sway blocks or adjustable chains for this 
purpose. Category of hitch is dependent upon the model 
of cutter being used.

Read and understand the operator’s manual for your 
cutter. An understanding of how it works will aid in the 
assembly and setup of your cutter.

It is best to go through the Assembly Checklist before 
assembling the cutter. Speed up your assembly task and 
make the job safer by having all the needed parts and 
equipment readily at hand.

Reference

Location of fasteners and pins.
NOTE: All hardware from the factory has 
been installed in the location where it will 
be used. If a part is temporarily removed 
for assembly reasons, remember where it 
goes. Keep parts separated.

Operator’s 
and Parts
Manual

Be sure parts get used in the correct 
location. By double checking while you 
assemble, you will lessen the chance of 
using a bolt incorrectly that may be 
needed later.

Operator’s 
Manual

All grease fittings are in place and 
lubricated.

Safety labels are correctly located and

Inflate tires to specified PSI air pressure. 
Tighten wheel bolts to specified torque.

Section 9
Page 56

Red and amber reflectors are correctly 
located and visible when the cutter is in 
the transport position.

Have a minimum of 2 people at hand 
while assembling the cutter. 

Operator’s 
Manual

Have a fork lift or loader along with chains 
and safety stands that are sized for the 
job ready for the assembly task.

IMPORTANT: The leveling rods on Pull-Type cutters 
are long and will make contact with the floor first 
when lowering cutter to the floor. It is best to remove 
them before lifting the cutter off the shipping crate.
