Spearhead Star-Cut 500 & 730OperationWhilst operating it is possible to continue working when turning as the Starcut500/730 is fitted with a constant velocity joint on PTO shaft. However takecare not to run the rear tractor wheel against the mower draw bar as this willresult in serious damage to the tractor, the mower and, in particular, the PTOshaft.The constant velocity joint on the input PTO shaft, allows the PTO to be left ingear whilst turning out of work, e.g. on the headlands. It is important not toturn sharply when the machine is in work as this will over-strain andshorten the life of the constant velocity joint.When operating in confined areas it is possible to cut going backwards, but itis advisable to slightly raise the machine, particularly if in scrub, where there isthe risk of hitting hidden solid obstacles obscured by dense undergrowth.Always exercise particular care when operating over uneven ground surfaces.Do not allow the blades and blade holder to frequently hit the ground.Do not allow debris to build upon the cutting decks in dry conditions, as thiscan be a fire hazard, in wet conditions it will place unnecessary strain on themachine and may foul the drive shaft causing damage.WarningDo not run the machine with the wings raised. The risk ofdebris and machine parts being ejected is greater as thechain skirting is ineffective in this position.14
