Battle Ax OM
Owner Information
Thank you for your decision to purchase a Battle Ax
30 Series Excavator Mulching Head from Loftness. To
ensure maximum performance of your machine, it is
mandatory that you thoroughly study the owner’s manual
and follow its recommendations. Proper operation and
maintenance are essential to prevent injury or damage
and to maximize machine life.
The Loftness Battle Ax is an effective, reliable machine
used for maintaining grass, weeds, brush and trees. For
best results, operate the machine as low to the ground
as possible without the teeth striking ground or other
obstructions. Lifting or tilting the Battle Ax increases the
risk of flying debris. Because of the high speed of the
teeth, the life of the teeth will be reduced if it is operated
in rocky terrain or in areas where many obstacles are
present. Areas to be mowed should be free of debris
such as rocks, bottles, large branches etc. The teeth cut
and pulverize the grass, weeds and brush. The Battle Ax
deposits cut material over the entire width-of cut, which
eliminates bunching or windrowing behind the machine.
Operate and maintain this machine in a safe manner and
in accordance with all applicable local, state, and federal
codes, regulations and/or laws, and in compliance with
on-product labeling and these instructions.
Make sure that all personnel have read this owner’s
manual and thoroughly understand safe and correct
operating, installation and maintenance procedures.

products may result in changes to your equipment
