Section 3: Operating Procedures
Operating Information
Hazard control and accident prevention are dependent
upon the awareness, concern, prudence and proper
training involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance and storage of the Rotary Cutter.
Therefore, it is absolutely essential that no one operates
the Rotary Cutter without first having read, fully
understood and become totally familiar with the
Operator’s Manual. Make sure the operator has paid
particular attention to:
The following inspections should be performed before
operating your Skid Steer cutter.
!
CAUTION
Rotary Cutters have the ability to discharge objects at high
speeds. Therefore, the use of front & rear deck safety shields
is required! Keep all bystanders at least 100 yards away.
Flying objects from the cutter can cause serious injury or
death.
!
CAUTION
Do not cut after dark without working lights. The equipment
can be damaged from hitting objects not seen in the dark and
from being hit by vehicles not able to see the equipment.
!
CAUTION
Cutter deck can be slippery especially when wet. Always step
on the anti grip pads when possible. Never hurry. Make sure
you have secure footing and hand hold when walking on the
deck.
!
WARNING
Do not become entangled in the hydraulic hoses. Tripping
over the hoses while entering or exiting the Skid Steer
operator station can cause serious injury to the body.

WARNING
Do not operate Rotary Cutter without an operator protective
door mounted to the cab and protective eye wear such as
safety glasses or goggles. Flying objects from the cutter can
cause serious injury to the body and eyes.
!
WARNING
The SC2660 Rotary Cutter is designed to cut grass and brush
up to 2” in diameter. Using this cutter for another type of work
can damage the drive components, deck and support frame.
!
WARNING
Do not travel too fast. The rougher the terrain, the slower you
must travel. Always travel at a speed slow enough to be able
to adjust the deck height before running it into the ground.
Remember, sudden dropping of the front tires can slam the
deck into the ground. Also, travel slow enough to stop before
running or turning into obstacles ahead and on either side.
!
DANGER
Do not cut on steep inclines. The Skid Steer could flip over
causing damage to the equipment, serious injury or death.
!
DANGER
Do not use deck to lift, push or pull objects. This can damage
the deck, cause serious injury or death.
!
DANGER
Never carry a person on the cutter. A person can fall and be
ran over causing serious injury or death.
!
DANGER
Do not use deck as a working platform. The deck is not
properly designed or guarded for this use. Using deck as a
working platform can cause serious injury or death.
!
DANGER
Do not use deck as a fan. Cutting blades are not properly
designed or guarded for this use. Using the deck as a fan can
cause serious injury or death.
!
DANGER
Do not operator the cutter with cutting blades raised higher
than 18" off the ground. Always use the height adjusting safety
chain to limit cutting height to 18" (16 1/2" skid shoe height).
Raising the cutter higher can throw debris at the operator and
cause serious injury or death.
!
DANGER
Shields must be secured in place when operating to avoid
injury or death from entanglement in rotating drivelines.
