To the Owner/Operator/Dealer
This Operator's Manual is an integral part of the safe operation of this machine and must be maintained with the
implement at all times. A Manual canister is provided on the implement where this manual can be properly stored.
If you lose or damage this manual a free replacement manual can be obtained from an authorized Bush Hog dealer
or by down loading the manual from the Bush Hog website www.bushhog.com
BEFORE YOU START! READ, UNDERSTAND, and FOLLOW the information provided in this manual, the AEM
Mower Safety manual and the tractor operator's manual carefully to learn how to operate and service your machine
properly. Failure to do so could result in personal injury to you and bystanders. All implements with moving parts
are potentially hazardous. Every effort has been made to ensure that the machine is safe but operators must avoid
engaging in unsafe practices and follow the written instructions provided. The manufacturer has designed this
implement to be used with all its safety equipment properly attached to minimize the chance of accidents.
SAFETY FIRST. Completely read and understand the safety section of this manual before operating this
equipment. Do not allow anyone to operate this equipment who has not fully read and understood this manual.
Contact your Dealer to explain any instructions that you do not fully understand.
The care you give your Bush Hog Implement will greatly determine your satisfaction with its performance and its
service life. Carefully read and follow the instructions in this manual to provide you with a thorough understanding
of your new implement and its intended use and service requirements.
All references made in this manual to right, left, front, rear, top or bottom are as viewed facing the direction of
forward travel with the implement properly attached to the tractor.
Replacement Parts information is located in a separate Parts Manual. Bush Hog mowers use balanced and
matched system components for blade carriers, blades, cuttershafts, knives, knife hangers, rollers, drivetrain
components, and bearings. These parts are made and tested to Bush Hog specifications. Non-genuine “will fit”
parts do not consistently meet these specifications. The use of “will fit” parts may reduce mower performance, void
warranties, and present a safety hazard. Use genuine Bush Hog mower parts for economy and safety.
For future reference, record your Bush Hog product model number and serial number.

DEALER to CUSTOMER Pre-Delivery/ Operation Instructions
Dealer should inform the Purchaser of this product of Warranty terms, provisions, and procedures that are
applicable.Dealer should inform Purchaser to review the contents of the Operator’s Manual including safety
equipment, safe operation, and maintenance, to review the Safety Signs on the implement (and tractor if possible),
and of Purchaser’s responsibility to train his/her operators’s in safe operation procedures.
•IMPLEMENTS: I have explained that Deflectors, Chain Guards, or Solid Skirts must be installed and main-
tained in good repair.
•DRIVELINES: I have made certain that all driveline, gearbox, and other shields are in good repair and fas-
tened securely in place to prevent injuries from entanglement or thrown objects.
•HYDRAULIC MACHINES: I have explained the necessity of using clean hydraulic oil, changing filters as
instructed, stopping leaks, damage caused by operating with over-heated oil, caring for hoses, using hoses of
proper rating, maintaining the specified operating pressure and the potential hazard of oil’s penetrating the
skin.
•FOLDING-TYPE IMPLEMENTS: I have explained that it is not possible to guard against thrown objects when
the head is lifted off ground and that operator is responsible to watch out for persons in the area. I have
explained that the lifted mower head or boom can contact overhead obstructions with damage to cables and
telephone lines and possible injury. I have explained that the extended head or boom or retracted boom can
contact power lines with resulting electrocution, injury or death and that operator is responsible for keeping
clear of such hazards.
