When reclaiming roadside gravel be sure that all
the 1" spacer on the castor wheel assembly is in the
bottom of the castor sleeve. Then set the angle in
which you want to windrow. The windrower can be
set at angles between 0° and 18° with the hydraulic
cylinder. The windrower should never be operated
on the center (crown) of the road as this will cause
excessive wear of the hard surfacing on the teeth
near the center of the drum. The power unit must
be equipped with a ROPS in the raised position or a
ROPS cab.
Avoid windrowing in the reverse direction when possible. In situations where the implement must be backed to
access areas to be windrowed make sure there are no persons, posts animals, or foreign debris behind the
unit before windrowing in reverse.
For the machine to operate effectively, the drum must rotate opposite of the direction of travel. For example,
when traveling forward, the ground engaging teeth must push material forward. When traveling in reverse, the
ground engaging teeth must drag material with you.
Always use a skid steer with an enclosed cab and an operator protective door that is free of
damage. Traveling in reverse can cause material to be thrown towards the cab. The mount
will prevent most material from reaching the door, but irregular material can be
unpredictable and safety precautions need to be taken.
Operate the Skid Steer and/or Implement controls only while properly seated in the Skid
Steer seat with the seat belt securely fastened around you. Inadvertent movement of the
Skid Steer or Implement may cause serious injury or death.
Do not windrow with two machines in the same area.
Use extreme care when transporting the windrower on public highways and roads.
windrower and the power unit is longer in length. The implement is also wider than the Skid Steer. Allow ample
clearance when transporting the skid steer and implement to insure that they do not contact any bystanders,
signs, road structures, or other vehicles.
