grass build up. See the "Maintenance, Service and Storage"
section for details.
• Do not mow on excessively steep slopes. Never use the mower
on slopes greater than 20 degrees using any type of tow vehicle.
Do not mow on slopes when the ground is slippery or wet. Mow
up and down the face of the slope, not across.
• Do not operate tow vehicle over 5 mph on flat terrain, or 4 mph
on rough terrain while towing the mower.
• When cutting larger wooded sections like small saplings, allow
the mower to ride up over the material slowly. Use a slower
speed to adjust for various conditions.
• After the first pass of cutting large saplings, mow the section
again to clean additional debris. Mow from the trunk towards the
top as the brush lays on the ground.
• Do not use a commercial or non-commercial automobile,
truck, sport utility vehicle (SUV) or motorcycle, as defined by the
Wisconsin Department of Motor Vehicles, to tow the Rough Cut
Mower. These vehicles make it difficult to see and control the
mower. Use of these tow vehicle types will void the warranty.
• Adjust heigh of hitch to pitch mower back front upward to get
better mulching of debris.
Note: This increases engine load and slower ground speed is
recommended.
• Mowing of grass in a position that offsets out of the towing
vehicle wheel tracks will result in more even cut due to lack of
matting of grass from towing vehicle.
• Lower deck settings result in better single pass cuts in grass.
• Attach blade engagement handle rope to towing vehicle in
location that can easily be removed. Pull rope to disengage
blades and prevent engine stall or blade damage by foreign
objects.
Note: Remember to remove rope before unhitching mower.

TOW VEHICLE RECOMMENDATIONS
Earthquake® recommends a tow vehicle be either two or four
wheel drive. Some suitable suggestions are listed below:
• Compact or Sub-compact tractor
• Utility Vehicle (UTV)
• All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV)
• Lawn/Garden Tractor (17 HP and above and weighing at least
500 lbs.)
• Riding lawn mowers with engines under 17 HP and weighing
less than 500 lbs. are not suitable for use on slopes greater than
5 degrees.
NOTE: Do not operate the tow vehicle out side of the
manufacturers recommended operating instructions or
conditions. Lawn and garden tractors work best as tow
vehicles when the cutting deck is removed.
