CUTTER HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
• There is approximately 4 inches of height adjustment.
• Rotate height adjust crank handle in a clockwise direction to lower the mower deck.
counter-clockwise direction to lift the mower deck.
• Dense areas of material should be cut twice.
• Push handle down to lock height position.
TOW HITCH OFFSET
• When offsetting the cutter do so to the side opposite the discharge of the tow
vehicle.
• Swisher recommends if the tow vehicle is equipped with a mid-mount mower to
overlap the cut approximately 6". This may vary depending on mowing terrain,
obstacles, and/or tow vehicle. Always keep safety the first priority.
• Always keep the tow vehicle cutter raised higher than the Trailcutter
• To change the oft_etting position both ball-lock pins should be removed (Fibre Two). The hitches
will swivel around remaining bolts. Set hitches to desired positions and return ball-lock pins, making
sure they go through the hitch tubing and the semi-circled hole patterned plates.
STARTING TO CUT
• Adjust the cutting height.
• Double check vehicle to cutter attachment.
• Start mower engine and set throttle to "FAST" for best cutting performance.
• Slowly engage T-handle lever.see figure-8page 14
• Carefully mount tow vehicle and start mowing at a slow travel speed.
STOPPING THE CUTTING SESSION
• Bring tow vehicle to a complete stop, set the parking brake and disengage blades.
• Turn key switch to the "OFF" position.
• Always relnelnber to relnove keys to avoid irresponsible usage.
SUGGESTED CUTTING PRACTICES
• Operate cutter engine at full throttle to assure the best cutting perf\3rlnance and
maximum material discharge.
• Allow wet _ass to dry. Wet grass will clump and collect under the mowing deck.
• Cutter should be started with tow vehicle in low gear and increased only as safe
mowing conditions permit. Cutting speed should not exceed 5 MPH.
• Cutting conditions and the types of reass will vary fiom place to place. You may
find when cutting dense areas that the pressure of the wheel tracks may cause the
grass to be pushed down and not effectively mowed. If this happens you may want
to mow the area twice. Once with the cutter raised and the second cutting at the
desired height. The second cutting should be at a right angle flom the previous for
best results.
• Reducing the travel speed wilt help cut dense growth. This allows the blades the
time necessary to make its initial cut, and regain momentum to continue cutting and
discharging debris properly. The engine may stall if you are mowing too fast!
• Do not attempt to cut areas that the tow vehicle cannot maneuver through and/or
slopes that you do not feel comfortable riding.
