The arm is attached via a DIN-type mounting plate, using bolt holes or user-supplied brackets, specific to their prime mover. The prime mover itself can be a tele-handler or a tractor with a front loader attachment – both types require hydraulic flow rate of 50 to 80 litres per minute for the saw motor, as well as an additional spool valve if using the ram-equipped unit. The arm is designed for vegetation control, to cut and thin all types of hedges, from thin to thick growth, with duty cycles of 500 hours per annum. It is essential that all guards are fitted to the cutting attachment and the prime mover’s cab when in use, and that the machine is operated in line with the procedures and practices detailed in this manual. IMPORTANT This operator’s manual should be regarded as part of the machine. Suppliers of both new and second-hand machines are advised to retain documentary evidence that this manual was provided with the machine. This machine is designed solely for ground vegetation control and must not be used for any other purpose. Use in any other way is considered as contrary to the intended use. Compliance with, and strict adherence to, the conditions of operation, service, and repair, as specified by the manufacturer, also constitute essential elements of the intended use. This machine should be operated, serviced, and repaired only by persons who are familiar with its characteristics and who are acquainted with the relevant safety procedures. Accident prevention regulations, all other generally recognised regulations on safety and occupational medicine, and all road traffic regulations must always be observed. Any arbitrary modifications carried out to this machine may relieve the manufacturer of liability for any resulting damage or injury. It is potentially hazardous to fit or use any parts other than genuine Spearhead parts. The company disclaims all liability for the consequences of such use which, in addition, voids the machine warranty.
