2.0 What the Machine is Designed For
2.1 Applicaons
The CAMON TC07 Turf Cuer has been designed by Tracmaster for removing the
top surface of lawn.
The benet of using a TC07 Turf Cuer is the ease and eciency with which the
machine is able to cut consistent strips of turf away from the soil.
The blade of the CAMON TC07 Turf Cuer is designed to be used only on to cut
strips of grass.
Prior to operaon of the TC07, the operator MUST test the depth of the soil which
can be done simply with a garden fork.
The Turf Cuer should NOT be used in ground which is less than 25mm in depth or
which contains rocks, bricks or other debris.
DO NOT use the CAMON TC07 Turf Cuer for any alternave use other than
removing grass from soil.
Operang the machine on non-grass surfaces such as concrete or tarmac will cause
damage to the TC07 Turf Cuer.

5.0 Safety Instrucons – Pre-Operaon
5.1 Basic Safety Instrucons
Before starng the machine, read and understand these operang instrucons.
5.2 Main Components and Operang Elements
Below is a descripon of the main components of the TC07 Turf Cuer and how
they operate.
5.3 Engine and Drive
The Honda GX160 is a four stroke engine that runs on standard unleaded fuel.
The engine is air cooled and therefore it is important
that the grille covering the recoil rope is kept clear from
debris.
The engine air lter cleans the air sucked in by the engine.
A clogged air lter will reduce performance.
The engine is ed with a fuel on/o lever and a
choke lever. Read the engine operang instrucons to
understand the operaon of these levers.
5.4 Gear Selector Lever
The drive to the back axle of the TC07 Turf Cuer can be engaged and disengaged
using the gear selector lever located at the rear of the machine, above the front
axles.
Locang the gear lever
in the ‘0’ posion
disengages the drive
from the back axle. The
machine can be free
wheeled in this posion.
Move the gear selector lever to the ‘I’ posion to engage the engine drive to wheels.
NB: The power to the back axle from the engine is controlled by a centrifugal clutch
that is aached to the engine. Moving the gear lever to the engaged posion will
not drive the machine automacally. It is only when the drive lever is acvated and
the engine revs are increased to a point at which the centrifugal clutch is engaged
that the engine power is transferred to the back axle.
5.5 Drive Lever
The drive lever is located beneath the le-hand handlebar grip.
GEAR LEVER ENGAGED GEAR LEVER DISENGAGED

CAMON TC07 Turf Cuer
TC07 Turf Cuer Page 7
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A TWO STAGE LEVER. THE GREY BUTTON MUST BE
DEPRESSED BEFORE THE MAIN LEVER CAN BE PULLED UP.
This lever operates both the cung blade and the driving power to the back
wheels. It does this by raising the engine speed unl a centrifugal clutch engages
and transfers the engine power to the driven components of the TC07.
Leng go of the drive lever causes the engine revoluons to drop, the centrifugal
clutch to disengage and both the engine drive and cung blade to stop moving.
5.6 Cung Depth Adjustment
The cung depth of the blade is adjusted using the two
adjuster knobs - the lower locking knob and the top
height adjustment knob. The top height adjustment knob
is connected to a length of threaded rod that is wound
into and out of the chassis. These knobs are located in
front of the handlebar mounng on the top secon of
the main chassis.
The lower knob is for locking the posion of the top knob. To adjust the depth of the
cung blade, rst loosen the lower locking knob. Once this knob is able to move
freely, you can adjust the posion of the top knob into and out of the chassis by
turning it clockwise and anclockwise.
Using the indicator scker on the thread of the top knob it is possible to choose
your required depth of cut. This ranges from 25mm to 40mm.
5.7 Machine Liing Lever
Located at the rear of
the machine, below the
handlebars, this lever allows
the operator to move the
cung blade in and out of the
ground.
