Page 11: Installation And Operating Instructions
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The Digga Slasher receives its power from the parent machine through the auxiliary valve circuit with quick release couplers normally located on the machine arm near the front. Hook up hoses to auxiliary hydraulics. Engine must be shut off. Pressure may need to be released. - Page 12 GENERAL INFORMATION The Digga Slasher is perfect for cutting tall grass and brush. The Slasher attaches to the toolbar/quick attach mechanism for your loader or quick hitch of your excavator (depending upon which version you ordered). Due to this arrangement, thorough knowledge of the loader or excavator control is necessary for machine operation.
- Page 13 INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CUTTING OPERATION 1. Raise the back of the unit off the ground approx. 100mm to allow the material to clear from under the cutter deck as you travel forward. 2. Place the front skid shoe 25mm-50mm off the ground. This is the preferred position for cutting grass and heavy vegetation. CAUTION: NEVER DRIVE YOUR LOADER WITH THE FRONT OF THE SLASHER TO THE POINT THAT YOUR VIEW IS OBSTRUCTED.
- Page 14 Roll the attachment mechanism forward and slowly back up until the attachment is free from the machine. Remove and store the attachment in a dry and protected place. Leaving the Slasha outside will materially shorten its life. WHEN ATTACHMENTS NOT ON PARENT MACHINE: It is a requirement of the Australian Work place Health and Safety act 1995 that safe systems of work are employed when handling any attachments.
