battery. Do not smoke near the battery as
battery vapors could ignite.
Skid Steer
Requirements
The Articulating Brush Cutter should only
be used on 70+ H P skid steers with a lift
capacity of at least 1800 Ibs. and with a
weight of at least 6500# with the bucket
removed. A skid steer equipped with tracks
will provide superior stability in this
application.
You will install the electrical joystick that
accompanies this attachment or your skid
steer must be equipped with an auxiliary
electrical option with an electrical
connector mounted on the machine's
loader lift arm from the skid steer
manufacturer. In order to complete the
connection, the mating connector on the
loader arm needs to match the connector
from the attachment. Refer to the electrical
drawing on page
19
of this manual.
A
12
V power
source coming directly from the battery
or from some other circuit that is
energized all the time could result in
Death or Serious Injury if the
attachment control switch is accidentally
bumped when the operator is entering or
exiting the skid steer with the engine
running.
Always refer
to
the polarity symbols printed
on
the top of
the battery. Refer
to
the
markings
on
the battery
to
determine
the location
of the
negative
(-)
cable. If
the battery cables are
to
be removed
from the battery, always remove the
negative cable first and reinstall the
negative cable last.
DO NOT smoke
around a battery, or use anything that
produces an open flame or spark
to
avoid an explosion that could result in
Death or Serious Injury.
The
12V
power source for this
attachment should be connected into the
skid steer's Operator Presence System
that cuts the electrical power to the
attachment shift valves if the operator
safety restraint bar is raised or the seat
switch is disengaged when the operator
raises from the seat. Consult with your
local skid steer dealer for assistance.
When using the provided joystick, route
the electrical harness up to the pivot point
of the loader arm and tie it with plastic
cable ties to the inside of the loader arm to
prevent snagging the harness with
branches. After installing harness, check
that the harness is free from any tension
when raising and lowering the loader arm
through its complete cycle.
Route harness to bock of loader pivot and on
the inside of loader arm
To protect the operator from any flying
debris, it is important that the skid steer is
equipped with a thermoplastic
polycarbonate windshield or similar
