INTRODUCTION

We are pleased to have you as a Bush Hog customer. Your Rotary Cutter has been carefully designed with

care and built with quality materials by skilled workers to give maximum service with minimum down time. This

manual is provided to give you the necessary operating and maintenance instructions for keeping your rotary

cutter in top operating condition. Careful use and timely service saves extensive repairs and costly downtime

losses. Please read this manual thoroughly. Understand what each control is for and how to use it.

Bush Hog typically offers three types of shielding to protect the operator, passerby, livestock, and property from

thrown objects... deflectors, single chain guards, and double chain guards. Shielding should be selected based

on the intended use of the mower. Double chain guards or deflectors should be used for highway, right-of-way,

parks or greenbelt mowing or all other mowing where human dwellings, vehicles, or livestock could be within

300 feet of the mower. Chain guards are more durable, provide a longer service life and require less

maintenance and replacement than deflectors. Single chain guards may be sufficient for agriculture and other

mower use only where passersby or property are not within 300 feet of the mower during operation.

No shielding is 100% effective in preventing thrown objects. The possibility of injury and property damage from

this hazard can be substantially reduce by selecting proper shielding, maintaining the mower and shielding in

good operational condition, inspecting the area for foreign debris before mowing, operating the mower at a

minimum cutting height of 4", and keep unprotected persons at a minimum distance of 300 feet from the

mower at all times during operation.

Safety is of primary importance to the owner/operator and to the manufacturer. Observe all safety precautions

decaled on the machine and noted throughout the manual for safe operation of implement. If any assistance or

additional information is needed, contact your authorized Bush Hog dealer. The owner/operator/dealer should

know and understand the Safety Messages before assembly and be aware of the hazards of operating this

cutter during assembly, use, and maintenance. The Safety Alert Symbol combined with a Signal Word, as seen

below, is intended to warn the owner/operator of impending hazards and the degree of possible injury faced

when operating this machine.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, WILL result in DEATH OR

VERY SERIOUS INJURY.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, COULD result in DEATH

OR SERIOUS INJURY.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, MAY result in MINOR

INJURY.

driveline and rubber couplings on the cross shafts also dampen the impact of the blades

hitting a stationary object. Shock absorbing rubber cushions are mounted between

the axle arm mounting bracket to reduce shock loads during operation and transport-

ing. These cutters are available with either pull, semi-mount or 3-Point Hitches.

INTRODUCTION

KEY OPERATION POINTS

• Cutting performance and distribution are best when cutter is level from side to side and front to rear.

• In extra heavy material, rear chains will allow better discharge and better distribution than solid rear bands.

• Never operate the Mower below full PTO speed of 540 or 1000 rpm.

• Corn should be cut at 5 to 6 mph. If full PTO rpm cannot be maintained, use one lower gear.

Operating Noise Level/Sound Pressure

The sound levels at the operator's ear from the attached machine (rotary cutter) are at least 10 dB(A) below the

levels from typical Agricultural tractors used to power and transport this machine. Therefore, the Noise

emission values given by the OEM of the Agricultural tractor used to power and transport this machine would

be valid when this machine is attached to and operated by that Agricultural tractor in all OEM recommended

applications.

belt to protect the operator from falling off the tractor, especially during a roll over where the driver could be

crushed and killed. Only operate the tractor with the ROPS in the raised position and seat belt fastened.

Tractor models not equipped with a ROPS and seat belt should have these life saving features installed by an

authorized dealer. OPS-U- 0003

Operate this Equipment only with a Tractor equipped with an approved roll-

over-protective system (ROPS). Always wear seat belts. Serious injury or

even de

ath could result from falling off the tractor--particularly during a turnover

when the operator could be pinned under the ROPS.

(SG-7)

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-5

OPERATION

2.3 Tractor Horsepower

The power required to operate a mower is determined by the tractor PTO horsepower. For most mowing

conditions, the 3510 Series lift mower requires a tractor with at least 60 HP and the semi-mount and pull type

mower require at least 50 HP. Operating the mower with a tractor that does not have adequate power may

damage the tractor engine. Exceeding 90 HP may cause mower damage by overpowering the unit in heavy

cutting conditions.

2.4 3-Point Hitch

Lift Type Mower-The tractor 3-point hitch must be

rated to lift at least 1818 lbs.

The Model 3510 Series is designed to be mounted

on a tractor with CAT II or CAT III 3-point or CAT II

or CAT III Quick Hitch.

Refer to the tractor operator’s manual for the

category of the tractor being used. If the hitch does

not conform to ASABE dimensions, the mower may

not fit or raise properly. Consult an authorized

dealer for possible modification procedures to

mount non-conforming hitches.

Depending on the hitch category, certain size pins

are used to attach the mower to the tractor. Quick

Hitch requires 1-7/16 diameter lower pin and 1-1/4

diameter upper pin. CAT II hitches require 1-1/8

lower pins and 1 inch upper pins. CAT III hitches

require 1-7/16 lower pins and 1-1/4 upper pin

diameters.

Our 3-point Quick Hitch is designed to connect to a

Quick-Attach coupler making mounting and

dismounting your mower easier. The 3-Point Quick

Hitch is also designed to connect the mower to a

tractor’s 3-point linkage without the use of a Quick-

Attach Coupler.

2.2 Tractor Safety Devices

If transporting or operating the tractor and implement near a public roadway, the tractor must be equipped with

proper warning lighting and a Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) emblem which are clearly visible from the rear of

the unit. Lights and a SMV emblem must be equipped directly on implements if the visibility of the tractor

warning signals are obscured.

Maintain all manufacturer equipped safety shields and guards. Always replace shields and guards that were

removed for access to connect, service, or repair the tractor or implement. Never operate the tractor PTO

with the PTO master shield missing or in the raised position. OPS-U- 0004

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-6

OPERATION

2.5 Drawbar - Pull Type Mower

For pull type mowers (540 and 1000 RPM)

equipped with an equal-angle driveline, the tractor

drawbar must be positioned as follows:

540 RPM at 14” Drawbar

1000 RPM, 1-3/8 at 16” Drawbar

1000 RPM, 1-3/4 at 20” Drawbar

2.6 Front End Weight

A minimum of 20% total tractor weight must be maintained on the tractor front end at all times. Front end

weight is critical to maintain steering control and to prevent the tractor from rearing up while driving. If the

front end is too light, add weight until a minimum of 20% total weight is reached on the front tires. Front

weights and weight carriers can be purchased through an authorized tractor dealership. OPS-U- 0005

2.7 Power Take Off (PTO)

This mower is designed to operate at a PTO speed of 540. Most tractors operate at either 540, or a

combination of 540 and 1000 RPM PTO speeds. The operating speed of the mower and tractor can be

determined by the number of splines on the driveline yoke and PTO output shaft. Those operating at 540 RPM

will have a 6-spline shaft and those operating at 1000 RPM will have a 21-spline shaft or a 1-3/4” 20-spline

shaft.

If operating an older model tractor where the tractor’s transmission and PTO utilize one master clutch, an

over-running clutch must be used between the PTO output shaft and the driveline of the mower. An authorized

tractor dealer can provide the over-running clutch and its installation if needed. OPS-R- 0066_C

DO NOT use a PTO adapter to attach a non-matching Implement driveline to a Tractor

PTO. Use of an adapter can doub

le the operating speed of the Implement resulting in

excessive vibration, thrown objects, and blade and implement failure. Adapter use will also

change the working length of the driveline exposing unshielded driveline areas. Serious

bodily injury and/or equipment failure can result from using a PTO adapter. Consult an

authorized dealer for assistance if the Implement driveline does not match the Tractor PTO.

5.3 Connecting Mower - Lift Type (Quick Hitch)

Crushing Hazard between Quick-Hitch and Implement. Do not allow anyone to stand

between the Quick-Hitch and implement during hook-up operations. Never operate the

hydraulic 3-point lift controls while someone is directly behind the tractor.

1. Make certain the implement’s upper and lower

hitch pins are secured.

2. Lower the tractor’s 3-point lift until the three

Quick-Hitch hooks are lower than the

implements hitch pins. Carefully back the

tractor to align the Quick-Hitch hooks under the

implement’s hitch pins.

3. Slowly raise the tractor’s 3-point lift until the

lower Quick-hitch hooks lock into place over the

implement’s 3-point hitch pins.

IMPORTANT: Make certain the implement’s top 3-

point hitch pin is captured by the Quick-Hitch top 3-

point hook. If not consult your Quick Hitch manual

for required adjustment.

IMPORTANT: The Quick Hitch will move mower

further from tractor which will require checking the

following:

1. Driveline length

2. Tractor stability

OPERATION

5.4 Connecting the Mower-Pull Type

1. Make sure the tractor is equipped with the

correct PTO shaft and the drawbar is extended

14” from the end of the PTO shaft to the hitch

point.

2. Block the mower wheels in place and use the

attached parking jack to raise or lower the

tongue clevis to the height of the tractor

drawbar. Note: Always place jack foot on firm

surface or place board under jack for support.

3. Board the tractor and start the engine. Back the

tractor to the mower aligning the drawbar hitch

hole with the mower hitch clevis. Turn off the

tractor engine, set the parking brake, place the

tractor in park, and dismount.

4. To attach the mower, place two 1” flatwashers

(1) positioned under top lip of tongue clevis and

to the top of drawbar. Add additional 1”

flatwashers (2) between the bottom of drawbar

and bottom lip of clevis to fill open space. Insert

a 1” x 4-1/2” grade 5 or 8 bolt (3) through clevis

and drawbar and retain in position with a 1”

locknut (4). The bolt and locknut should be

tightened securely to support the tongue

properly without springing or breaking the clevis.

Never attach mower to the tractor with a pin not

having a nut.

5. Securely attach mower safety chain to tractor

drawbar or drawbar support frame.

6. Lower the jack until the tongue is completely

supported by the drawbar. Remove jack from

the tongue and place on storage bracket of

mower main frame.

7. If using a hydraulic cylinder, connect hydraulic

hose ends into tractor hydraulic ports.

6. SETTING THE MOWER

Properly setting the cutting height is essential for efficient and safe operation. A properly set mower will make

a more uniform cut, distribute clippings more evenly, require minimal tractor work, and follow the contour of

uneven terrain. NOTE: Avoid very low cutting heights, striking the ground with the blades gives the most

damaging shock loads and will cause damage to the mower and drive. Blades contacting the ground may

cause objects to be thrown out from under the mower deck. Always avoid operating the mower at a height

which causes the blades to contact the ground. OPS-U- 0010

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-15

OPERATION

7.1 Driveline Length Check

When fitting the mower to the tractor, the telescoping driveline must be inspected to ensure that at its most

compressed position, the profiles do not “bottom out”, and when at its farthest extended position, there is

sufficient engagement between the profiles to operate safely. At its shortest length, there must be at least a 1”

clearance between each profile end and opposite profile universal joint. At its farthest operating extension, a

minimum profile engagement of 12” must be maintained.

7. DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT

The driveline yoke and tractor PTO shaft must be

dirt free and greased for attachment.

To connect the mower driveline to the tractor PTO

output shaft, pull the driveline yoke collar back and

align the grooves and splines of the yoke with those

of the PTO shaft. Push the driveline yoke onto the

PTO shaft, release the locking collar, and position

the yoke until the locking collar balls are seated

onto the PTO shaft. Push and pull the driveline

back and forth several times to ensure a secure

attachment. OPS-R-0003_I

When attaching the Implement input driveline to the Tractor PTO, it is important that the

connecting yoke spring activated locking collar slides freely and the locking balls are seated

securely in the groove on the Tractor PTO shaft. Push and pull the driveline back and forth

several times to ensure it is securely attached. A driveline not attached correctly to the

Tractor PTO shaft could come loose and result in personal injury and damage to the

Implement.

(S3PT-17)

Before operating the Implement, check to make sure the Implement input driveline will not

bottom out or become disengaged. Bottoming out occurs when the inner shaft penetrates

the outer housing until the assembly becomes solid-it can shorten no more. Bottoming out

can cause serious damage to the Tractor PTO by pushing the PTO into the Tractor and

through the support bearings or downward onto the PTO shaft, breaking it off. A broken

driveline can cause personal injury.

(S3PT-18)

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-16

OPERATION

“Bottoming Out” Check Procedure

• Disconnect driveline from the tractor and slide

the profiles together until fully compressed.

• Place a mark on the inner shield 1/8” from the

end of the outer shield.

• Reattach the driveline to the PTO Shaft.

• Lift and Semi-Mount Type - Raise the mower/

Pull Type - Turn sharply and watch the

driveline as it approaches the mark. If the

distance between the mark and the end of the

outer shield tube becomes less than 2” at any

point, the driveline must be shortened. OPS-

R-0004_D

Shorten the driveline profiles as follows:

• Remove the driveline from the tractor.

• Position the mower (Lift and Semi-Mount Type -

Raise and lower/ Pull Type - Turn sharply) to

the point with the shortest distance between

the tractor PTO shaft and cutter gearbox. Shut

down the tractor and securely block the mower

in this position.

• Pull driveline apart and reattach yoke to PTO

shaft.

• Hold driveline sections parallel to one another

and measure back 1” from yoke of each shaft

and place mark on opposite section. Cut this

length off with a saw.

• Round off all sharp edges and debur.

• Thoroughly grease then reinstall the driveline.

• Recheck for proper operation.

Engagement Check Procedure

• With the driveline attached, position the mower to the point where the telescoping driveline is at its

maximum extension. Completely shut down the tractor and secure in position.

• Mark the inner driveline shield 1/8” from the end of the outer shield.

• Disconnect the driveline from the tractor and separate the two driveline halves.

• Measure the distance from the mark to the end of the inner profile. This length is the amount the driveline

profiles were engaged.

• If the engaged length is less than 12” for a CV driveline and less than 6” for a non-CV driveline, the shaft is

considered too short and should be replaced with a longer shaft. Consult an authorized dealer to

purchase the required driveline length.

NOTE: When raising the mower, at least 1” clearance must be maintained between the driveline and the

mower deck. If necessary, place an upper lift stop on the 3-point hitch control lever to limit the height the

mower can be raised. OPS-R-0005-G

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-17

OPERATION

7.2 Constant Velocity (CV) Driveline

Mowers are equipped with a Constant Velocity (CV) driveline, the maximum turning angle between the tractor

and mower must be determined to ensure the joint angle does not over-extend which can cause CV joint

damage. Constant Velocity joints enable the driveline to operate smoothly with no vibrations and clattering at

angles up to 80°. Angles greater than 80° will result in mechanical damage to the CV joint and mower

driveline.

The Constant Velocity joint must be lubricated every 20-40 hours of operation as specified in the Maintenance

Section. Failure to properly lubricate the joint will result in accelerated wear and joint component failure.

CV Driveline Maximum Angle Check Procedure

• With the mower attached to the tractor and the driveline disconnected from the tractor PTO stub make

a hard left turn until there is approximately a 1" clearance between the left rear tractor tire and mower

frame or tongue.

• Stop and completely shut down the tractor. Place the tractor in Park and apply the Parking Brake before

dismounting.

• Check the CV joint at this maximum turning radius by holding the driveline yoke above the PTO shaft and

then angle the CV joint to its maximum angle. A minimum difference of 10 degrees between the center

line of the yoke and the PTO shaft must be maintained to ensure the joint will not be over angled. If the

joint cannot be angled at least 10°, there is a potential problem of over-angling the joint while making

sharp turns.

• Solutions: To ensure the joint is not damaged, check the following:

Check the drawbar length to ensure that it is at the proper length for the RPM speed of the mower.

Move the tractor rear tires wider apart to limit the tractor turning radius.

Position the mower at multiple angles and perform the above procedure. Determine the sharpest turning

radius that maintains a safe operating angle and note this position to the operator. OPS-R-0006_A

DANGER

01/19

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-29

OPERATION

9.1 Starting the Tractor

The procedure to start the tractor is model specific.

Refer to the tractor operator’s manual for starting

procedures for your particular tractor. Consult an

authorized dealer if the starting procedure is

unclear. Ensure the 3-point control lever is in the

lowered position and the PTO is disengaged before

starting the tractor. OPS-U-0033

9.2 Brake and Differential Lock Setting

Make sure the tractor brakes are in good operating

condition. Tractor brakes can be set to operate

independently allowing single rear wheel braking

action or locked together to provide simultaneous

rear wheel braking. FOR MOST DRIVING AND

OPERATING CONDITIONS, THE BRAKE PEDALS

SHOULD BE LOCKED TOGETHER TO PROVIDE

THE MOST EFFECTIVE BRAKING ACTION.

Always disengage the tractor differential lock when

turning. When engaged the differential lock will

prevent or limit the tractor from turning. During

normal cutting conditions, locking the differential

provides no benefit and should not be used. OPS-

U- 0013

Be aware of the operating conditions. Do not operate the Tractor with weak or faulty brakes.

When operating down a hill or on wet or rain slick roads, the braking distance increases; use

extreme care and reduce your speed in these conditions. When operating in traffic, always

use the Tractor’s flashing warning lights and reduce your speed. Be aware of traffic around

you and watch out for the other guy.

OPERATION

9.3 Raising the Mower

Using the tractor 3-point hitch control lever-lift type

or hydraulic remote lever-pull and semi-mount

type, raise the mower high enough to clear all

ground obstacles. When raising the mower, make

sure all connection points are securely attached

and at least 1” clearance is maintained between the

driveline and the deck. If necessary, place an

upper lift stop on the 3-point hitch control lever to

limit the height the mower can be raised to avoid

driveline damage.

OPS-R-0042_A

9.4 Driving the Tractor and Mower

Start off driving at a slow speed and gradually increase your speed while maintaining complete control of the

tractor and mower. Moving slowly at first will also prevent the tractor from rearing up and loss of steering

control. The tractor should never be operated at speeds that cannot be safely handled or which will prevent

the operator from stopping quickly during an emergency. If the power steering or engine ceases operating,

stop the tractor immediately as the tractor will be difficult to control.

Perform turns with the tractor and mower at slow

speeds to determine how the tractor with an

attached mower handles a turn. Determine the

safe speed to maintain proper control of the tractor

when making turns. When turning with a towed

implement, the overall working length of the unit is

increased. Allow additional clearance for the

mower when turning.

To avoid overturns, drive the tractor with care and

at safe speeds, especially when operating over

rough ground, crossing ditches or slopes, and

turning corners. Tractor wheel tread spacing

should be increased when working on inclines or

rough ground to reduce the possibility of tipping.

Use extreme caution when operating on steep

slopes. Keep the tractor in a low gear when going

downhill. DO NOT coast or free-wheel downhill.

01/19

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-35

OPERATION

10.4 PTO RPM and Ground Speed

Ground speed for mowing will depend upon the height, type, and density of vegetation to be cut.

Recommended speed for efficient mower performance is between 2 and 5 mph(3-8 kph). Operate the mower

at its full rated PTO speed to maintain blade speed for a clean cut. Refer to the tractor operator’s manual or

the tractor instrument panel for the engine speed and gear to provide the required PTO and desired ground

speed. Make sure that the mower is operating at its full rated speed before entering the vegetation to be cut.

If it becomes necessary to temporarily regulate engine speed, increase or decrease the throttle gradually.

Ground speed is achieved by transmission gear selection and not by the engine operating speed. The

operator may be required to experiment with several gear range combinations to determine the best gear and

range which provides the most ideal performance from the mower and most efficient tractor operation. As the

severity of cutting conditions increase, the ground speed should be decreased by selecting a lower gear to

maintain the proper operating PTO speed. OPS-R-0025

Do not exceed the rated PTO speed for the Implement. Excessive PTO speeds can cause

Imp

lement driveline or blade failures resulting in serious injury or death.

(SG-26)

Mow at the speed that you can safely operate and control the tractor and mower. The

correct mowing speed depends on terrain condition and grass type, density, and height of

cut. Normal ground speed range is from 2 to 5 mph(3-8 kph). Use slow mowing speeds

when operating on or near steep slopes, ditches, drop-offs, overhead obstructions, power

lines, or when debris and foreign objects are to be avoided.

(SGM-07)

10.5 Operating the Mower

The mower is designed to cut vegetative material up to 2” in diameter. Travel at a speed that allows the

mower sufficient time to cut through the vegetation and maintain the operating speed at 540 rpm to prevent

overloading the mower and tractor and to produce a clean cut. Choose a driving pattern that provides the

maximum pass length and minimizes turning. Remember, sharp blades produce cleaner cuts and require

less power.

Under certain conditions, tractor tires may roll some grasses down preventing them from being cut at the

same height as the surrounding area. When this occurs, reduce the tractor ground speed while maintaining

the operating speed of the mower. A slower ground speed will permit grasses to at least partially rebound and

be cut. Taking a partial cut and/or reversing the direction of travel may also help produce a cleaner cut.

Avoid mowing in the reverse direction when possible. In situations where the mower must be backed to

access areas to be cut, make sure there are no persons or other foreign debris behind the mower before

mowing in reverse. When mowing in reverse, operate the tractor and mower at a much reduced ground

speed to ensure control is maintained of the tractor and cutter. OPS-R-0026_H

01/19

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-37

OPERATION

Do not let the Blades turn when the Mower Deck is raised for any

reason, including clearance or for turning. Raising the Mower deck

exposes the Cutting Blades which creates a potentially serious hazard

and could cause serious injury or even death from objects thrown from

the Blades.

(SRM-07)

Large, dense, or wet vegetation may need to be

mowed in two or more passes to achieve a uniform

cut. In such conditions, raise the cutting height to

12” or more on the first pass. OPS-R-0043

Then lower the mower to the desired height and

mow the vegetation a second time. If possible,

select a mowing pattern that is at a 90 degree angle

to the first pass to reduce streaking for a more

uniform cut. OPS-R-0044

01/19

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-39

OPERATION

Never stand or allow another person to stand between a running Tractor and the Mower

when disconnecting the Implement from the Tractor 3-point hitch.

10.8 Shutting Down the Implement

To shut down attached mower head, first bring the

tractor to a complete stop. Decrease engine RPM

to idle then disengage cutterhead. The mower head

will come to a complete stop within a suitable

amount of time. Do not engage or disengage the

cutterheads at a high RPM unless there is an

emergency situation.

Park the tractor on a level surface, place the

transmission in park or neutral and apply the

parking brake, lower the attached implement to the

ground, shut down the engine, remove the key, and

wait for all motion to come to a complete stop

before exiting the

tractor. OPS-U-

0016

11. DISCONNECTING THE MOWER FROM THE TRACTOR

Before disconnecting the mower, the PTO must be

disengaged and blade rotation at a complete stop.

Move the mower to a level storage location and

lower it to the ground. If the mower is not resting

securely on the ground, block the mower up

securely before attempting to disconnect it from

the tractor.

Use extreme care to keep feet and hands from

under the mower and clear of any pinch points

caused by the tractor hitch arms and mower pins.

DANGER

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-40

OPERATION

Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in park, and set the

parking brake before you or anyone else attempts to connect or disconnect the Implement

and Tractor hitches. (S3PT-15)

DANGER

Never unhitch without using the Tongue Jack. The Tongue is very heavy. Attempting to lift

the Tongue without using the Tongue Jack could cause strains or other injury. Allowing the

tongue to fall suddenly and unexpectedly could result in crushing injury. Use the Tongue

Jack for lifting the Implement only. Overloading the Tongue Jack can cause failure with

possible serious bodily injury or even death.

(STI-04)

Lift-Type Mower - To disconnect the mower, first

extend the tractor 3-point hitch top link to remove

tension on the top link hitch pin. When the pin is

loose and easy to rotate, remove the pin from the

mower. Next remove both lower hitch pins.

Pull-Type Mower - To disconnect the mower, first

relieve hydraulic pressure by moving the control

lever back and forth several times. Lower the

parking jack and raise the mower until the tongue

clevis in no longer resting on the tractor drawbar

and is supported solely by the jack. Make sure that

the jack

foot is securely resting at ground level or

supported by a block. Then remove the hitch bolt,

locknut, and washers. If a hydraulic cylinder was

used, remove its hose end from the tractor port and

secure it to the mower to prevent contact with dirt.

After disconnecting the 3 lift points, remove the

mower driveline from the tractor PTO shaft. Lay the

driveline down carefully

to avoid damaging the

driveline or its shield. Do not let the driveline fall

into mud or dirt, which can contaminate the bearing

and shorten the life of the driveline. OPS-R-0031_A

OPERATION

Implements 12 feet wide or wider are required to use additional flashing warning lights when transporting on

public roads or highways. Install, as indicated in the assembly section of this manual, the magnetic towing

lights that came with your implement. Make sure that magnetic towing lights are placed on top of deck near the

outside of the implement and are connected to the tractor and working properly before transporting implement

on public roads.

Before transporting the tractor and mower, idle the

tractor

engine, disengag

e the PTO and wait for all

mower moving parts to come to a complete stop.

Once all mower parts are completely stopped, raise

the mower to transport height. NOTE: When

raising the mower, maintain 1” clearance between

the driveline and mower deck. If additional mower

deck height is needed for safe transport, disconnect

the driveline from the tractor and secure its end to

the mower deck. The mower can then be raised to

the maximum lift height. OPS-R-0033_A

If the tractor’s hydraulic pump is not independent of

the tractor PTO, or if the tractor PTO has to be run

to have hydraulic power, disconnect the mower

driveline from the tractor PTO output shaft. Secure

the driveline to the mower deck to prevent driveline

damage or loss during transport. OPS-R-0034

13.1 Transporting on Public Roadways

Extreme caution should be used when transporting the tractor and implement on public roadways. The tractor

must be equipped with all required safety warning features including a SMV emblem and flashing warning

lights to alert drivers of the tractor’s presence. Remember that roadways are primarily designed for

automotive drivers and most drivers will not be looking out for you, therefore, you must look out for them.

Check your side view mirrors frequently and remember that vehicles will approach quickly because of the

tractor’s slower speed. Be

extremely cautious

when the piece of equipment that you are towing is wider than

the tractor tire width and/or extends beyond your lane of the road.

Make sure that a proper size safety tow chain is secured between the tractor and implement before entering a

public road. OPS-U- 0019

OPERATION

3510 / 13510 Rotary Cutter 01/19 Operation Section 4-43

OPERATION

INSTALL Magnetic Towing Lights on Implement 12 feet wide or wider

and ensure they are properly functioning before transporting on public

roads. Make sure lights are visible to traffic following and approaching

implement.

The SMV (Slow-Moving Vehicle) emblem is

universal symbol used to alert drivers of the

presence of equipment traveling on roadways at a

slow speed. SMV signs are a triangular bright

orange with reflective red trim for both easy day

and night visibility. Make sure the SMV sign is

clean and visible from the rear of the unit before

transporting the tractor and implement on a public

roadway. Replace the SMV emblem if faded,

damaged, or no longer reflective. OPS-U- 0020

Make sure that all tractor flashing warning lights,

headlights, and brake/tail lights are functioning

properly before proceeding onto public roads. While

newer model tractors have plenty of lighting to

provide warning signals and operating lighting, most

older models are only equipped with operating lights.

Consult an authorized tractor dealer for lighting kits

and modifications available to upgrade the lighting on

older tractor models. OPS-U- 0021

When operating on public roads, have

consideration for other road users. Pull to the side

of the road occasionally to allow all following traffic

to pass. Do not exceed the legal speed limit set in

your country for agricultural tractors. Always stay

alert when transporting the tractor and implement

on public roads. Use caution and reduce speed if

other vehicles or pedestrians are in the area. OPS-

13.2 Hauling the Tractor and Implement

Before transporting a loaded tractor and implement, measure the height and width dimensions and gross

weight of the complete loaded unit. Ensure that the load will be in compliance with the legal limits set for the

areas that will be traveled through

Use adequately sized and rated trailers and equipment to transport the tractor and implement. Consult an

authorized dealer to determine the proper equipment required. Using adequately sized chains, heavy duty

straps, cables and/or binders, securely tie down both the front and rear of the tractor utilizing the proper tie

down locations as specified by the tractor manufacturer.

Arrange the chains so that when tightened, the chains are pulling downward and against themselves. Carefully

tighten the securing chains or other fasteners using boomers or binders to apply maximum tension. Use

extreme care when attaching and removing the securing devices as the extreme tension involved when

released has the potential to inflict serious injury.

While hauling the tractor and implement, make occasional stops to check that the tractor and implement have

not moved or shifted and that the securing chains have maintained tension. If during transport a hard braking,

sharp turning, or swerving action was performed, stop

at the next safe location to inspect the security of the

load.

Reduce speed before turning or applying the brakes.

Ensure that both brake pedals are locked together

BLADE TIMING AND ROTATION

Blades on multi-spindle mowers overlap cutting paths to ensure a complete cut across the width of the mower

and to compensate for blade tip wear. If a gearbox has been repaired, a blade carrier or side driveline has been

removed, or other maintenance performed which altered the factory set blade carrier timing, the blades must

be re-timed to ensure they will not collide while rotating.

BLADE TIMING PROCEDURE

1. Raise the mower to minimum height to allow sucient clearance between the mower deck and ground to

visually inspect blade carriers.

2. Completely shut down the tractor and secure the tractor in position by placing the tractor in park and setting

the parking brake. Securely block the mower at this height.

3. On a side gearbox, remove connecting driveline coupler.

4. Manually rotate carriers until blades are positioned at near 90 degree angle from one another.

5. Replace connecting driveline and coupler.

6. Manually spin carriers a complete rotation to ensure blades do not collide with one another.

TRABAS DE TRANSPORTE Y CADENA DE SEGURIDAD:

• INSTALE los paradores o pernos de transporte en el cilindro de eje central.

• AJUSTE LA CADENA DE SEGURIDAD del implemento al tractor.

DETERMINAR LAS CARACTERÍSTICAS DE DETENCIÓN DEL TRACTOR Y EL IMPLEMENTO PARA EL

TRANSPORTE O REMOLQUE:

PRUEBAS DE FRENADO:

• FRENE a velocidades en aumento.

• Observe las distancias de DETENCIÓN con el aumento de velocidad.

• DETERMINE la velocidad de transporte máxima segura que no supere las 20 millas por hora

DETERMINE LA VELOCIDAD DE GIRO MÁXIMA ANTES DE OPERAR EN CARRETERAS O TERRENO

IRREGULAR:

• PONGA A PRUEBA el equipo aumentando lentamente la velocidad en las curvas para determinar si se puede

operar a mayor velocidad.

• USE MENORES velocidades de giro en las curvas pronunciadas para evitar el vuelco.

AL REMOLCAR O TRANSPORTAR EL EQUIPO:

• Siempre USE EL CINTURÓN DE SEGURIDAD al operar o transportar la cortadora.

• USE bajas velocidades para evitar el vuelco con el implemento elevado.

• USE bajas velocidades y dirección gradual en las curvas, colinas, o en superficies irregulares o poco uniformes, y en

carreteras mojadas.

• ENCIENDA LAS BALIZAS DE ADVERTENCIA del tractor.

Instrucciones de operaciones antes de la entrega del DISTRIBUIDOR al CLIENTE

El distribuidor deberá informar al comprador de este producto las condiciones, disposiciones y procedimientos de

garantía aplicables; informar la responsabilidad del comprador de capacitar a sus operadores para la operación

segura; revisar el contenido del Manual del Operador, incluido el equipo de seguridad, la operación segura y el

mantenimiento; y revisar las Señales de Seguridad que se encuentran en el implemento (y en el tractor, de ser

posible).

• IMPLEMENTOS: He explicado que los deflectores, protectores de cadena o faldones sólidos se deben

mantener en buenas condiciones de reparación y se deben instalar, excepto en zonas donde personas,

vehículos, ganado u otros bienes no corran peligro por objetos arrojados, y en los casos en que dichos

equipos de seguridad impedirían un desempeño razonable de la cortadora en su tarea asignada.

• LÍNEAS DE CONDUCCIÓN: Me he asegurado de que todos los protectores de líneas de conducción, de caja

de engranajes y otros están en buenas condiciones de reparación y firmemente sujetados para prevenir

lesiones por enredo u objetos arrojados.

• MÁQUINAS HIDRÁULICAS: He explicado la necesidad de usar aceite hidráulico limpio, cambiar los filtros

según las instrucciones, detener filtraciones, prevenir daños por operar con aceite demasiado caliente, cuidar

las mangueras, usar mangueras del tipo correcto, mantener la presión operativa especificada y prevenir el

posible riesgo de que el aceite penetre en la piel.

• IMPLEMENTOS PLEGABLES: He explicado que no es posible proteger contra objetos arrojados cuando el

cabezal está elevado del suelo y que el operador es responsable de verificar que no existan personas en las

inmediaciones. He explicado que el brazo o cabezal de cortadora elevado puede entrar en contacto con

obstrucciones elevados y dañar cables y líneas telefónicas, y posiblemente causar lesiones. He explicado que

el brazo o cabezal extendido, o el brazo retraído, puede entrar en contacto con cables de alimentación y

causar lesiones o la muerte por electrocución, y que el operador es responsable de evitar dichos riesgos.

A fin de reducir la tasa de accidentes y mejorar la operación segura de las cortadoras, Alamo Group Ag Division se

ha asociado con otros fabricantes de la industria para desarrollar el video y la guía de Prácticas de Seguridad para

Cortadoras Industriales y Agrícolas AEM/FEMA.

El video explica a los operadores de tractores y cortadoras las prácticas seguras que deben adoptar cuando

utilizan cortadoras industriales y agrícolas. Es importante que todos los operadores de cortadoras aprendan cómo

operar sus equipos de corte y puedan reconocer los posibles peligros que pueden surgir al operar una cortadora.

Este video, en conjunto con el manual del operador de la cortadora y los mensajes de advertencia que se

encuentran en la cortadora, serán muy útiles para complementar este aprendizaje tan importante.

Es posible que su distribuidor autorizado de Bush Hog le haya mostrado este video y le haya entregado una copia

en DVD cuando adquirió su cortadora. Si usted o algún operador de cortadora no vio el video: mire el video, lea

este Manual del Operador, y complete la Guía del Video antes de operar su cortadora nueva. Si no comprende

alguna de las instrucciones del video o del manual del operador, o si tiene alguna pregunta acerca de la operación

segura, comuníquese con su supervisor, con el distribuidor o con Alamo Group Ag.

Si desea recibir una copia del video en VHS, envíe un mensaje de correo electrónico a AEMVideo@alamo-

group.com o un fax al (830) 372-9529, o envíe por correo una copia rellenada del formulario que se encuentra al

dorso de esta página a AEM VHS Video 1502 E Walnut Street, Seguin, TX 78155, y solicite la versión en VHS.

Indique su nombre, dirección postal, modelo de cortadora y número de serie.

Cada uno de los operadores debe recibir capacitación para cada equipo (tractor y cortadora), comprender el uso

previsto, y comprender los posibles peligros antes de operar el equipo.

La informacion y material mecionado en la informacion anterior junto con el Manual de Operador puede asistir en

cumplir con los requisitos de OSHA para el entrenamiento anual del Operador.

todos sus equipos de seguridad correctamente sujetados para minimizar la probabilidad de accidentes.

LA SEGURIDAD PRIMERO. Lea con atención la totalidad de la sección de seguridad de este manual antes de

operar el equipo. No permita que nadie opere el equipo sin haber leído y comprendido la totalidad de este manual.

Comuníquese con el distribuidor si necesita explicación sobre alguna instrucción que no haya comprendido del

todo.

Los cuidados que brinde a su Implemento Bush Hog determinarán en gran medida su satisfacción con el

desempeño y la vida útil del equipo. Lea con atención y siga las instrucciones de este manual para comprender
