Land Pride RCP2660 Manuale Utente

A 3-Point Category II or Category III hitch is required.
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.

The number of tractor hydraulic duplex outlets required is
dependent upon if the Rotary Cutter is set-up with
solenoid controlled cylinders or tractor controlled
cylinders.

Two duplex outlets are required if parallel arms and
deck cylinders are solenoid controlled with momentary
push button switches at the control stick. Breakaway
cylinder is controlled by tractor lever.

Four duplex outlets are required if parallel arms, deck
and breakaway cylinders are all controlled by tractor
levers.

The RCP cutters requires 540 rpm Power Take-Off
(PTO) speed and the RCPM cutter requires 1000 rpm
PTO speed to operate the hydraulic pump & motor.
Required tractor horsepower to operate the pump &
motor is approximately 30 HP.

The tractor MUST be equipped with protective
equipment designed to shield the operator from thrown
objects and tractor roll over. An enclosed tractor cab with
a Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS) may qualify.
See tractor’s manual for type of protection your tractor
has.

Tractors with only a ROPS must also have a protective
shield added to the right hand fender. A universal
operator protective shield is available from Land Pride.
Refer to page 31 for additional information and
installation.

It is also recommended that a protective shield or screen
be added to the right hand side of the tractor engine
cowling and radiator. This will help protect the tractor’s
finish and radiator against thrown objects.

This cutter has been assembled at the factory. However,
some preparations will be necessary to attach the cutter
to customer’s tractor.

Make certain the intended tractor conforms to the
“Tractor Requirements” on page 12.

Review and check off Preparation Checklist below
before proceeding.

Upper hitch pin is not Included with unit. Determine
customer’s tractor hitch type. (Cat II or Cat III). Buy
required upper hitch pin locally or order a Land Pride
hitch pin if customer’s tractor does not included the pin.
See Land Pride’s upper hitch pin part numbers below.

Before operating this unit, 80-90 EP Gear Lube must
be added to the gearbox & motor as indicated in the
“Maintenance & Lubrication” section for “Speed
Increaser” on page 42 of this manual.

35 Gallons of Hydraulic Fluid is needed for the
hydraulic reservoir. Use any high quality mineral based
hydraulic fluid such as Mobil Fluid 424 with a viscosity
rating of 10W-30.

Additional hydraulic fluid (approx 2 gallons) for the
tractor reservoir.

Miscellaneous assembly tools: hammer, tape measure,
hacksaw, assortment of wrenches and sockets,1/4”
drill, drill bits and spirit level.

Quick disconnect adaptors that match tractor’s duplex
outlets. Quantity required depends on option selected:
(4) If equipped with solenoid control box.
(8) If not equipped with hose hook-up.

Possible need for forklift or hoist capable of lifting 2500
lbs.

Auxiliary tractor weights (depending on tractor size).
See “Tractor Requirements” on page 12

A minimum of two people available during assembly.

If a pin, bolt or other part has been removed, and you
are unsure where it is used, use the Parts Manual to
identify it. Be sure the part gets 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.

Safety decals are legible and undamaged from
shipment.

PTO driveline and loose parts bag/box shipped with
the cutter are present.
