GENERAL WARNINGS
READ and UNDERSTAND the manual completely before using 3-POINT HITCH
TRIMMER/MOWER.
Become familiar with the operation and service recommendations to ensure the best performance
from your machine.
DANGER
Your 3-POINT HITCH TRIMMER is driven by a PTO shaft that transfers power from your Tractor. The
Tractor and PTO shaft are extremely dangerous and can cause serious injury or death if not used
properly. Read and understand all of the Warnings and operating instructions that came with your
Tractor and the PTO shaft to protect yourself from severe injury or death.
SAFETY FOR CHILDREN AND PETS
WARNING
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children and pets. Children
are often attracted to the machine and the trimming activity. Never assume that children will remain
where you last saw them. Always follow these precautions:
•Keep children and pets out of the working area and under the watchful care of a responsible
adult.
•Be alert and turn the machine off if children or pets enter the work area.
•Never allow children to operate the 3-POINT HITCH TRIMMER/MOWER.
•Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may
obscure your vision.
PROTECTING YOURSELF AND THOSE AROUND YOU
WARNING
This is a high-powered machine, with moving parts operating with high energy at high speeds. You
must operate the machine safety. Unsafe operation can create a number of hazards for you, as well
as anyone else in the nearby area. Always take the following precautions when using this machine:
•Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to
other people, their property, and themselves.
•Always wear protective goggles or safety glasses with side shields while trimming to protect
your eyes from possible thrown debris.
•Avoid wearing loose clothing or jewelry, which can catch on the machine’s moving parts.
•We recommend wearing gloves while using this machine. Be sure your gloves fit properly and
do not have loose cuffs or drawstrings.
Wear shoes with non-slip treads when using your 3PT Trimmer. Safety shoes are
recommended. Do not use the machine while barefoot or wearing sandals with exposed toes
or heels.
•Wear long pants while operating the 3PT Trimmer.
•Use ear protectors or ear plugs rated for at least 20 dba to protect your hearing.
•Always keep bystanders at least 100 feet away from your work area. The tips of the cutting
cords on the 3PT Trimmer can throw sticks, small stones, gravel, and bits of debris over long

3
distances at great velocity. Do not travel over loose materials such as gravel or mulch with
the trimmer head spinning. Doing so could cause injury or property damage from thrown
objects. Disengage the PTO shaft to stop the spinning cords and shut off the Tractor engine
when another person or pet approaches.
•Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper operation regularly.
•Never operate the machine when under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
OPERATING THE TRIMMER/MOWER SAFETY
WARNING
This is a high-powered machine, with moving parts operating with high energy at high speeds. You
must operate the machine safely. Unsafe operation can create a number of hazards for you, as well
as anyone else in the nearby area. Always take the following precautions when using this machine:
•Do not have the Trimmer engaged or resting on the ground when backing up. The machine is
designed to trim and roll on the Wheel in the forward direction only. Trimming or rolling on
the Wheel in the reverse direction could damage the machine and is not covered by the
Warranty.
•Know how to stop the Trimmer quickly by disengaging the PTO Shaft and shutting down the
tractor.
•Never allow people who are unfamiliar with these instructions to use the 3PT Trimmer. Allow
only responsible individuals who are familiar with these rules of safe operation to use your
machine.
•Do not exceed 2 mph when trimming to allow proper cutting and discharge of material.
•Do not exceed 7 mph when transporting to prevent damage to the machine.
•Operating your 3point trimmer with the head misaligned with the ground can result in poor
cut quality, pivoting problems, scalping during cutting, wear on your equipment, and damage
to the cutting cord.
•Never place your hands, feet, or any part of your body on or under the mower deck in the
path of the spinning cords, belt, pulleys, or near the discharge opening while the tractor is
running. Keep area of discharge clear of people, animals, buildings, glass, or anything else
that will obstruct clear discharge, cause injury, or damage.
•Your 3PT Trimmer is a powerful tool, not a plaything. Exercise extreme caution at all times.
The design of your machine is for trimming and mowing grass, weeds, and other growth as
specified in this manual. Do not use it for any other purpose.
•Whenever you leave the operating position to adjust, change cords or if you have to remove
grass or debris from the underside of the deck, always disengage PTO, shut down the Tractor
Engine, remove the key, wait for all moving parts to come to a complete stop, disconnect the
PTO shaft 5 from the Tractor, then wait five minutes before performing any maintenance
procedure or inspection on the Trimmer.
•Be mindful of hazards, changes in terrain, slopes, or wet conditions. Use care when backing
up.
•Stop the cutting cords when crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads.

4
•Never, under any conditions, remove, bend, cut, fit, weld, or otherwise alter standard parts
on the 3PT Trimmer. This includes all shields and guards. Modifications to your machine could
cause personal injuries and property damage and will void your warranty.
•If the cutting cords strike a foreign object or if your machine should start making an unusual
noise or vibration, disengage PTO, shut down the Tractor Engine, remove the key, wait for all
moving parts to come to a complete stop, disconnect the PTO shaft from the Tractor, then
wait five minutes before inspection. Vibration is generally a sign of trouble. Clean and repair
and/or replace damaged parts.
•While using the 3PT Trimmer, do not hurry or take things for granted. When in doubt about
the equipment or your surroundings, stop the machine and take the time to look things over.
Make sure that you always have 100% control of the Trimmer.
•Watch for traffic when mowing near roadways.
•Use the machine only in daylight.
•Be cautious when using your 3PT Trimmer around fencing, wires, ropes, and hoses. It is
possible that these and other debris can become wound around the Cord Head of the
machine, potentially damaging the bearings, or injuring you.
•Do not operate the 3pT Trimmer on slopes greater than is recommended in you Tractor
manual.
•Keep all nuts and bolts tight and keep the equipment in good operating condition.
A NOTE TO ALL USERS
No list of warnings and cautions can be all-inclusive. If situations occur that are not covered by this
manual, the operator must apply common sense and operate this 3PT Trimmer in a safe manner.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Before performing the following procedure, be sure your tractor engine is off, brake is set, and the
key removed for safety.
STEP 1: Attach the 3-point Bracket to the Tractor
1. Position the 3-point bracket at the rear of the tractor with the back plate facing away from
the back of the tractor. The opposite side of the 3-point bracket facing the upper draft arm is
open.
2. Attach the 3-point bracket to the tractor and secure with drive pin.
STEP 2:
ATTACH THE TRIMMER/MOWER TO THE 3-POINT BRACKET

7
1. Slide the pivot pin into the mounting hole of the 3-point bracket, then fixed with locking ring
and drive pin.
2. Insert the hex bolt M18x240 to the 3-point bracket and fixed with hex nut M18.
3. Attach the spring-back assembly to the frame using hex bolt M12x55 and nylon lock nut M12.
STEP 3: INSTALLING THE WHEEL ASSEMBLY

8
1. Insert the wheel shaft into the wheel support from underneath, install the spacers on top and
secure with the hitch pin.
Note: The wheel height can be adjusted as needed.
STEP 4: CALCULATING LENGTH OF PTO SHAFT NEEDED

9
The PTO Shaft provided with your Trimmer is 32” overall compressed length and will work “as is” for
most applications. Before you install the PTO shaft it is good practice to calculate optimum PTO shaft
length according to your tractor and usage needs to determine if modifications are needed.
WARNING
The minimum recommended overlap of the tubes at the center of the PTO shaft should be 6”. Using
a PTO shaft with less than 6” overlap may fail and cause machine damage or personal injury.
TOOLS NEEDED:
•13mm Wrench
•4mm Allen Wrench
1. Slightly loosen the wing nut, rotate the gearbox guard up away from the gearbox shaft.
2. Attach the PTO shaft to the gearbox, put flat key in the middle of PTO shaft and gearbox, then
tighten set screw.
3. Press PTO spring pin and connect PTO shaft to the tractor spline shaft, then check whether
the assembly is in place. (The installation is complete when the spring pin will automatically
rebound.)
4. Check the PTO both ends of the assembly in place, cover the gearbox guard. Note: One side
of PTO and gearbox sealing ring to keep 5MM distance, so as not to lead to a collision with
gearbox sealing ring.
STEP 5: INSTALLING TRIMMER CORDS
Always make sure to install all four trimmer cords and ensure they are the same length. Not

10
having all four 10 cords installed and/or at the same length will cause excessive vibration and
could damage the machine.
1. Insert the end of a trimmer cord into the inlet hole (large, slotted cutout) push it in until the
end protrudes out the other side approximately 10mm.
2. Turn the cord head 90 degrees and repeat the installation until all cords are installed.
Note: The cord can only move through the cord head in one direction. To remove it you must pull
it from the other side of the Holder (where the 10mm end is).
NOTICE
Running the trimmer without all four cords installed or cords of unequal length can cause excessive
vibration and may damage the machine.
STEP 6: CORD HEAD ADJUSTMENT
Note: The cord head can be located above or below the molded spacer giving you a 1-1/2” range in
trimming height. The following steps show moving the cord head from below the molded spacer to
on top of the molded spacer.
