Hydraulic Outlets
The number of tractor hydraulic duplex outlets is 
dependent upon how the Rotary Cutter is set-up. 
Two duplex outlets are required if the wings are folded 
up and down simultaneously. (Factory standard)
Three duplex outlets are required if the wings are 
folded up and down independently.
Float position is highly recommended for the wings.
IMPORTANT: PTO damage may occur if distances 
“A” and “B” are not properly maintained.
IMPORTANT: A PTO adaptor should not be used. 
Using a PTO adaptor can damage the PTO.

If the tractor does not have the necessary number of 
duplex outlets, there are control valve kits available to 
add outlets. See “Hydraulic Accessories” on page 35 
for a complete description of this kit.
Before You Start
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 Pre-Assembly Checklist 
before assembling the cutter. Speed up your assembly 
task and make the job safer by having all needed parts 
and equipment readily at hand.
Torque Requirements
See “Torque Values Chart for Common Bolt Sizes” on 
page 56 t
o determine correct torque values when 
tightening hardware. See “Additional Torque Values” at 
bottom of chart for exceptions to common torque values.
Assembly Checklist
Check
Reference
Have a fork lift or loader with properly sized chains and safety 
stands capable of lifting and supporting the equipment on hand.
Have a minimum of two people available during assembly.
Make sure all major components and loose 
parts are shipped with the machine.
Operator’s
Manual
Double check to make sure all parts, fasteners, 
and pins are installed in the correct location. 
Refer to the Parts Manual if unsure. By double 
checking, you will lessen the chance of using a 
bolt incorrectly that may be needed later.
NOTE: All assembled hardware from the 
factory has been installed in the correct 
location. Remember location of a part or 
fastener if removed during assembly. Keep 
parts separated.

lubricated.
Make sure all safety labels are correctly 
located and legible. Replace if damaged.
Make sure all red and amber reflectors are 
correctly located and visible when machine is 
in transport position.
Make sure all pneumatic tires are properly 
inflated and all wheel bolts and axle nuts are 
tightened to the specified torque.
