Prepare For Emergencies
Be prepared in case of an emergency.
Keep a re extinguisher and rst aid kit handy.
Keep emergency phone numbers close to your phone.
Know your address so emergency services can locate
you if an emergency arises.
Avoid Rollover
Your tractor may rollover,
resulting in death or serious
injury. To avoid rollover:
•Travel at a slow speed;
•Carry loads close to the
ground;
•Avoid sharp turns and
sudden movements on slopes;
•Avoid holes, ditches and other obstructions which may
cause the tractor to rollover;
•Balance load so weight is evenly distributed and load
is stable;
•Be extra careful when operating on slopes and do not
operate on excessively steep slopes;
•Do not exceed the load capacity of your equipment;
•Be certain tractor tire spacing and rear ballast are
correct before using equipment;
•Approach large round or square bales on a slope with
the tractor facing uphill.
Lower Operating Speed
Lower your operating speed while digging, loading or
performing heavy operations.
Move at slow speeds on rough or uneven terrain while
keeping the load low.
Replace Safety Signs
Replace missing or damaged safety signs.
Safety signs & part no. locations are identied in this manual.
Replacement safety signs are available from your
Westendorf dealer at no cost.
Do Not Allow Riders
NEVER lift or carry anyone with the loader, bucket or
attachments.
NEVER use the loader or attachment as a work plat-
form.
NEVER allow passengers on the tractor. Be sure that
people, livestock and pets are clear of
machinery while operating.
DO NOT lift or carry
anyone with the
loader, bucket
or attachment.
Avoid Power Lines & Underground Utilities
Death or serious
injury can result if
equipment comes
near or contacts
power lines.
Electrocution can
occur without direct contact.
Check clearance before raising equipment.
Have local utilities locate and
mark under ground wires,
cables, pipelines and
other hazards before
digging.
DO NOT leave the operator’s seat if any part of the
equipment contacts electric lines or cables.
High Lift Loaders
High lift loader require tractors with a long wheel base.
The rear wheels need to be set out all the way or prefer-
ably dual rear wheels and adequate ballast. (See ballast
calculations in your loader’s operator manual.)
The front wheels are the fulcrum
when raising a load. You must
have sufcient leverage and
ballast to offset the loader
in front of the front tires.
Extreme care and
slow speed must be
used when raising
and dumping a load.
Monitor the load at
all times.

Transport Loads Safely
Use the proper attachment to lift and carry the load.
Follow the instructions in the appropriate operator’s
manual for any loader attachments.
Carry loads low and slightly rolled back.
Travel SLOW and avoid slopes.
Avoid High Pressure Fluids
Escaping uid under pres-
sure can penetrate the skin
causing serious injury.
Avoid the hazard by reliev-
ing pressure before con-
necting or disconnecting
hydraulic lines. Tighten all
connections before applying pressure.
Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard or wood. Pro-
tect hands and body from high pressure uids.
If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately. Any uid
injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a
few hours or serious infection may result. Doctors unfamiliar
with this type of injury should reference a knowledgeable
medical source.
DO NOT mount a valve with direct mount joystick inside
the tractor cab. Use only a remote cable inside cab.
Check the loader response to the control lever move-
ment. The loader should respond according to the ASAE
standards shown. If response is incorrect, check the
hydraulic hose connections at the tractor and manifold
and correct if necessary. 1-Lever control functions will be
shown throughout the manual, refer back to this section
for operation regarding the 2-Lever control.

Prevent Falling Loads
ALWAYS secure the
load at the source.
Round bales, square
bales, posts, stones,
logs, and other objects
can fall or roll from a raised
loader or attachment, which
may crush the operator or
bystanders.
Handle all raised loads with
caution. Keep eyes on load while raising or lowering.
•
DO NOT carry items that may shift in the loader
bucket or attachment.
•
DO NOT handle round or square bales unless the
loader is equipped with the proper bale handling
attachment.
•
DO NOT handle bales with the pallet fork attachment.
•
NEVER travel with a raised load.
•
ALWAYS carry loads low and close to the ground.
Raised Loader
A raised loader can fall unexpectedly, resulting in
death or serious injury.
NEVER enter
the area
under a raised
loader or
attachments.
Lower bucket or attachments to the ground, place trac-
tor transmission in park, shut off engine and remove
key before servicing loader or attachments.
Detach loader from tractor to service the tractor.

SECTION 2: SAFETY
BALLAST refers to cast weights or uid added to rear tractor tires. Hitch ballast refers to a weight or an implement attached to the tractor three-point hitch.
GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT (GVW)
is the sum of front and rear axle weight caused by the mass of the tractor, loader, attachment, payload, ballast and hitch ballast.
The operational ballast criterion has been met when
a minimum of 25% of the gross vehicle weight is
retained on the rear axle in a static condition on
level ground.
• A mass equivalent to the Lift Capacity maximum height
should be placed in the loader bucket, with the boom
raised until the bucket pivot pin is the same distance
from the ground as the boom pivot (farthest forward
position). The rear axle weight and gross vehicle weight
should be measured on hard level ground (+1o) under
these conditions. See Figure 1.
• Ballast must be added to the rear wheels and/or hitch
until the rear axle weight on level ground is a minimum
of 25% of the gross vehicle weight. Ballast added to
the rear hitch should be kept as low as practical.
• When a loader is used in a dedicated situation,
an operator may determine the appropriate ballast,
based on the maximum load to be carried.
• We recommend ballast, based on the criteria listed
in above and knowledge of the physical character-
istics of the tractor.
This engineering practice is intended as a guide to determine the minimum ballast and tread settings recommended for the operation of a front loader
mounted on a 2WD tractor or a tractor with front assist. These ballast and tread setting recommendations are intended to reduce the risk of vehicle over-
turn during typical operation.
The rear wheel width is the most important specication to the balance of your tractor loader operation.
Always use approved ROPS and fasten your seat belt.
Minimum tread settings are recommended to provide static stability on a side slope up to 15 degrees under
proper rear ballast conditions listed in above. If minimum tread settings are not available in your mounting
instructions, minimum rear tread settings should be selected from the following chart:
Minimum Tread Settings
STEP 1: Put weight in the bucket equiv-
alent to the lift capacity of the loader at
full lift height. The lift capacity
can be found in several locations:
• Operators manual
• Company Literature
• Visit us online at www.loaders.com
• Or Call Us at 712-423-2762
STEP 2: At the scale get the gross
vehicle weight (GVW) with the loader
raised so the bucket pivot pin is as high
as the boom pivot pin.
See Figure 1 .
Then weigh the rear axle (R).
STEP 3: Formulas to gure ballast.
GVW x 25% = Required Rear Axle
Weight (RRAW)
< IS LESS THAN > IS GREATER THAN
If R > RRAW = No Ballast Required
If R < RRAW = Ballast Required
Figure Rear Ballast Required (RBR):
RRAW - R = RBR
RBR x 133% = Ballast Required
Note:Since adding ballast increases the total
weight adding the difference will not be enough.
You need to add approximately 133% of the dif-
ference. Depending on where you add the ballast
in respect to the rear axle the amount of weight
may vary.
Determination of Ballast Three Simple Steps
TRACTOR
DAMAGE.
To avoid tractor damage use hitch ballast.
Failure to use ballast can cause the front axle
or other tractor components to be overloaded
during loader operation.
CRUSHING
HAZARD.
To prevent personal injury or death from trac-
tor loader roll-over, add the recommended
amount of ballast to the tractor. Always use a
ROPS and wear a seatbelt.

Handling Your Brush Crusher™
Round Bale Safety
To help prevent personal injury, do not attempt to pick up
the attachment by yourself. Use a mechanical device
or team lift when handling the attachment. Use extreme
caution when moving and handling this attachment.
When not properly secured the teeth assemblies will
swing together and could cause personal injury.
Handle all
raised loads
with caution.
Keep eyes on
load while lowering or
raising to help prevent
personal injury or death
caused by falling or
crushing loads:
•DO NOT handle round or square bales unless the
loader is equipped with an approved bale handling
attachment.
•Brush Crusher is NOT designed for handling hay.
•NEVER travel with a raised load.
•ALWAYS carry loads low and drive slow.
Lockout valve detents to prevent automatic loader
movement (See tractor’s owners manual).
Due to the
nature of trees
and limbs being heavier on
one end than the other, use extra caution
when handling uneven loads.
•DO center the weight of the uneven load in your
attachment.
•AVOID twisting loads.
•ALWAYS carry loads low and drive slow.
•ALWAYS be alert of your surrounding when
carrying loads.

The Westendorf Brush Crusher is a unique product, take time to understand how it operates. The mechanical
advantage allows you to use the bucket cylinders to operate the teeth, saving you the expense of added hydraulics.
The Brush Crusher is a very powerful tool, please review the following tips when operating this unit.
The Mechanical Advantage
Approaching the Load
Approaching the load will vary based on the loader and Brush Crusher model you have. Pay particular attention
to the teeth when they are in the open position. Whichever set of teeth are closer to the ground determines how to
approach the load. Position the claw around the object by lowering your loader arms and driving into or toward from
the object (Figure 1). Draw the object into the claws by closing the teeth and lowering the arms.
At times you may want to put the loader
into FLOAT when closing the teeth. This
allows the Brush Crusher to adjust or
capture the load.
FLOAT
SECTION 4: OPERATION
To prevent tractor or equipment damage:
• Know the limitations of your equipment.
• DO NOT exceed the capacity that your loader or
Brush Crusher™ can handle safely.
• Center the weight of the load in the attachment.
• Avoid twisting loads.
• See your tractor operator’s manual for ballast and tire
setting recommendations.
CRUSHING HAZARD.

SECTION 5: SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
Storing the Brush Crusher™
•Store attachments inside, if possible, on a solid,
level surface, as shown. If stored outside, cover the
unit with a waterproof material.
•Store Brush Crusher units out of way so they do not
have to be moved between uses.
WARNING
FALLING HAZARD.
To prevent serious injury or death:
• Store attachment inside, if possible, on hard level sur-
face to avoid falling over.
• Protect against injuries from sharp points or edges on
attachment.
• Keep children and bystanders away from storage area.
Preparing the Brush Crusher™ for Storage
•Replace damaged or missing parts including pins,
hardware and decals.
