Before Operation
Important Safety Information

TRBC Heavy Duty Brush Cutter
• Children should not be allowed on the machine.
• Clear the area of small children and bystanders before moving the machine.
• If using a towing unit, securely attach implement by using a hardened 3/4” pin, a metal retainer, and safety
chains if required. Shift towing unit to a lower gear before going down steep downgrades, thus using the
engine as a retarding force. Keep towing vehicle in gear at all times. Slow down for corners and rough
terrain.
• Make sure you are in compliance with all local and state regulations regarding transporting equipment on
public roads and highways. Lights and slow moving signs must be clean and visible by overtaking or
oncoming traffic when machine is transported.
• Beware of bystanders, particularly children! Always look around to make sure that it is safe to start the
engine of the towing vehicle or move the unit. This is particularly important with higher noise levels and
quiet cabs, as you may not hear people shouting.
• NO PASSENGERS ALLOWED! Do not carry passengers anywhere on, or in, the tractor or equipment,
except as required for operation.
• Keep hands and clothing clear of moving parts.
• Do not clean, lubricate or adjust your equipment while it is moving.
• When halting operation, even periodically, set the tractor or towing vehicle brakes, disengage the PTO,
shut off the engine and remove the ignition key.
• Be especially observant of the operating area and terrain. Watch for holes, rocks or hidden hazards. Always
inspect the area prior to operation.
• DO NOT operate near the edge of drop-offs or banks.
• DO NOT operate on steep slopes as overturns may result.
• Operate up and down (not across) intermediate slopes. Avoid sudden starts and stops.
• The brush cutter must be equipped with all protective guards (as provided by the manufacturer) against
access to moving parts. Guards must be complete and fully functional. Never operate the implement with
guards removed.
• When stepping on the brush cutter, be aware that the surface may be slippery. Place your feet only where
there are protrusions provided for this purpose, which are shown in the figure below.
During Operation
Important Safety Information
10
TRBC Heavy Duty Brush Cutter
• Your brush cutter discharges debris out the front of the machine. When cutting with the Brush Cutter,
NEVER discharge material toward bystanders. All bystanders must be AT LEAST 75 feet away when
operating the cutter. NEVER allow bystanders near the machine while in operation. When cutting near
bystanders is unavoidable, DO NOT operate the cutter without the front guard flap in place (if equipped
with guard flap).
• ALWAYS clear the cutting area of objects (bottles, rocks, fencing wire, etc.) that may be picked up and
thrown.
• ALWAYS use a shatterproof cab door or the 3/8” thick safety chain that came with your Brush Cutter
(optional) when cutting. The door is used not only to protect the operator from flying debris, but also from
overhanging or protruding objects (tree limbs, rebar, vines etc.) from entering the cab and operator injury.
