SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
TACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID
ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.
Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped
out by an operator’s single careless act.
ꢀ Never allow children or untrained persons to
operate equipment.
In addition to the design and configuration of
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-
PREPARATION
ꢀ Check that all hardware is properly installed.
Always tighten to torque chart specifications
unless instructed otherwise in this manual.
tion are dependent upon the awareness, con-
cern, judgement, and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance, and storage of equipment.
ꢀ Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic oper-
ation and allows loads or equipment components
to drop unexpectedly. When connecting equipment
or hoses or performing any hydraulic maintenance,
purge any air in hydraulic system by operating all
hydraulic functions several times. Do this before
putting into service or allowing anyone to
approach the equipment.
It has been said, “The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be
that kind of operator.
INSTALLATION
ꢀ Hydraulics must be connected as instructed in
this manual. Do not substitute parts, modify, or
connect in any other way.
ꢀ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
TRAINING
ꢀ Safety instructions are important! Read all
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all
safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace-
ment manuals and safety decals are available from
your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check
or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319-
6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules
can result in serious injury or death.
ꢀ Make sure attachment is properly secured,
adjusted, and in good operating condition.
ꢀ Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar
slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO
spline groove.
ꢀ Connect PTO driveline directly to power unit
PTO shaft. Never use adapter sleeves or adapter
shafts. Adapters can cause driveline failures due to
incorrect spline or incorrect operating length and
can result in personal injury or death.
ꢀ If you do not understand any part of this manual
and need assistance, see your dealer.
ꢀ Make sure driveline guard tether chains are
attached to the tractor and equipment as shown in
the pamphlet that accompanies the driveline.
Replace if damaged or broken. Check that driveline
guards rotate freely on driveline before putting
equipment into service.
ꢀ Know your controls and how to stop engine and
attachment quickly in an emergency.
ꢀ Operators must be instructed in and be capable
of the safe operation of the equipment, its attach-
ments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to
operate this equipment without proper instruc-
tions.
ꢀ Before starting power unit, check all equipment
driveline guards for damage. Replace any damaged
guards. Make sure all guards rotate freely on all
drivelines. If guards do not rotate freely on drive-
lines, repair and replace bearings before putting
equipment into service.
ꢀ Keep hands and body away from pressurized
lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other
body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles.
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate
skin and will cause serious injury or death.
ꢀ Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or
ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely
fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death
from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable
ROPS systems in “locked up” position at all times.
(Safety Rules continued on next page)
ꢀ Make sure that all operating and service person-
nel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it
must be surgically removed as soon as possible by
a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gan-
grene, serious injury, or death will result. CON-

SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
(Safety Rules continued from previous page)
ꢀ Operate only in daylight or good artificial light.
ꢀ Inspect chain, rubber, or steel band shielding
before each use. Replace if damaged.
ꢀ Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from
equipment while engine is running. Stay clear of all
moving parts.
ꢀ Make sure shields and guards are properly
installed and in good condition. Replace if dam-
aged.
ꢀ Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.
ꢀ Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or
ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely
fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death
from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable
ROPS systems in “locked up” position at all times.
ꢀ Remove accumulated debris from this equip-
ment, power unit, and engine to avoid fire hazard.
ꢀ Make sure all safety decals are installed.
Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for
location.)
ꢀ Always sit in power unit seat when operating
controls or starting engine. Securely fasten seat
belt, place transmission in neutral, engage brake,
and ensure all other controls are disengaged
before starting power unit engine.
ꢀ Do not put this equipment into service unless all
side skids are properly installed and in good condi-
tion. Replace if damaged.
ꢀ A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment
weight must be on the tractor front wheels when
attachments are in transport position. Without this
weight, front tractor wheels could raise up result-
ing in loss of steering. The weight may be attained
with front wheel weights, ballast in tires or front
tractor weights. Weigh the tractor and equipment.
Do not estimate.
ꢀ Operate tractor PTO at 540 RPM. Do not exceed.
ꢀ Look down and to the rear and make sure area
is clear before operating in reverse.
ꢀ Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.
ꢀ Do not stop, start, or change directions sud-
denly on slopes.
ꢀ Use extreme care and reduce ground speed on
slopes and rough terrain.
ꢀ Inspect and clear area of stones, branches, or
other hard objects that might be thrown, causing
injury or damage.
ꢀ Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during
operation.
OPERATION
ꢀ Stop power unit and equipment immediately
upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine,
remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before
resuming operation.
ꢀ Do not allow bystanders in the area when oper-
ating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servic-
ing equipment.
ꢀ Leak down or failure of mechanical or hydraulic
system can cause equipment to drop.
ꢀ Full chain, rubber, or steel band shielding must
be installed when operating in populated areas or
other areas where thrown objects could injure peo-
ple or damage property.
ꢀ On pull-type units with optional hydraulic cut-
ting height adjustment, use a single-acting cylinder
with a maximum extended length of 28-1/4" (718
mm) from attaching point center to center.
• If this machine is not equipped with full chain,
rubber, or steel band shielding, operation must
be stopped when anyone comes within 300 feet
(92 m).
• This shielding is designed to reduce the risk
of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec-
tive devices cannot prevent all objects from
escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing
condition. It is possible for objects to ricochet
and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).
ꢀ Before performing any service or maintenance,
disconnect driveline from tractor PTO.
TRANSPORTATION
ꢀ Always comply with all state and local lighting
and marking requirements.
ꢀ Do not operate PTO during transport.
ꢀ Never direct discharge toward people, animals,

DRIVELINE ADJUSTMENT (MOUNTED)
Category I and II
Attach the cutter to the tractor 3-point hitch (or quick
hitch if available). Do not attach driveline. Raise and
lower cutter to determine maximum and minimum dis-
tance between the tractor PTO shaft and the gearbox
input shaft. If the distance is too large, the driveline will
be too short for proper engagement. If distance is too
small, the driveline may bottom out in operation and
damage the cutter or tractor.
Refer to Figure 3.
1. To mount tractor top link, use lowest hole provided
in the tractor’s top link attachment bracket.
2. Assemble hitch pins (5) in proper position.
3. Place A-frame arms (7) (square hole) on mast
plate (15).
The driveline length must be sufficient to provide at
least 1/3 driveline length of engagement during opera-
tion. There must be at least 4 inches of engagement at
the cutter’s lowest possible point of operation. The driv-
eline must not bottom out when raised to the maximum
height possible.
4. Secure with carriage bolts (16), sleeves (17), flat
washers (18), and flange lock nuts (19).
5. Connect brace arms (6) to the brace arm pivot hole
(10) on the inside of rear lug (9).
6. Use the second hole on the end of the brace arm
and secure using cap screws (20) and flange lock
nuts (19).

With the cutting height established, adjust the driveline
carrier bearings in the H-frames so that the front drive-
line is parallel to the ground with cutter in cutting posi-
tion.
3. Move slowly into material. Adjust tractor ground
speed to provide a clean cut without lugging the
tractor engine. Use a slow ground speed for better
shredding.
Proper ground speed will depend on the terrain
and the material’s height, type, and density.
TRANSPORTING BB840XP (PULL-TYPE)
Normally, ground speed will range from 2 to 5 mph.
Tall, dense material should be cut at a low speed;
thin, medium-height material can be cut at a faster
ground speed.
4. Always operate tractor PTO at 540 rpm to maintain
proper blade speed and to produce a clean cut.
5. Under certain conditions tractor tires may roll down
some grass and prevent cutting at the same height
as the surrounding area. When this occurs, reduce
your ground speed but maintain PTO at 540 rpm.
The lower ground speed will permit grass to
rebound partially.

SHREDDING MATERIAL
Figure 10. Transport Lock Operation
For shredding, set the cutter lower at rear. Determine
how much lower to set the rear by experimenting in dif-
ferent situations.
1. Always transport with cutter in raised, locked
position.
2. Raise cutter with hydraulic cylinder to max height.
STORAGE
3. Rotate transport lock into position over cylinder
rod. See Figure 10.

who possess basic mechanical skills. If you need help,
your dealer has trained service technicians available.
For your protection, read and follow the safety informa-
tion in this manual.
5. With full cutter weight lowered onto jackstands, test
blocking stability before working underneath.
6. If cutter is attached to tractor when blocking, set
the brakes, remove key, and block cutter before
working underneath.
ꢀ Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
7. Securely block rear tractor wheels, in front and
behind. Tighten tractor lower 3-point arm anti-sway
mechanism to prevent side-to-side movement.
CAUTION
ꢀ If you do not understand any part of this manual
and need assistance, see your dealer.
LUBRICATION INFORMATION
ꢀ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
Use a lithium grease of #2 consistency with a MOLY
(molybdenum disulfide) additive for all locations unless
otherwise noted. Be sure to clean fittings thoroughly
before attaching grease gun. One good pump of most
guns is sufficient when the lubrication schedule is fol-
lowed.
BLOCKING METHOD
Do not let excess grease collect on or around parts,
particularly when operating in sandy areas.
See Figure 11 for lubrication points and frequency or
lubrication based on normal operating conditions.
Severe or unusual conditions may require more fre-
quent lubrication.
ꢀ Never go underneath equipment (lowered to the
ground or raised) unless it is properly blocked and
secured. Never place any part of the body under-
neath equipment or between moveable parts even
when the engine has been turned off. Hydraulic
system leak down, hydraulic system failures,
mechanical failures, or movement of control levers
can cause equipment to drop or rotate unexpect-
edly and cause severe injury or death. Follow Oper-
ator's Manual instructions for working underneath
and blocking requirements or have work done by a
qualified dealer.
Gearbox Lubrication
For gearbox, use a high quality gear oil with a viscosity
index of 80W or 90W and an API service rating of GL–
4 or –5 in gearboxes. Fill gearbox until oil runs out the
side plug on gearbox. Check gearbox daily for evi-
dence of leakage, and contact your dealer if leakage
occurs.
To minimize the potential hazards or working under-
neath the cutter, follow these procedures:
Driveline Lubrication
1. Jackstands with a load rating of 1000 lbs or more
are the only approved blocking device for this
cutter. Install a minimum of four jackstands (shown
by Xs in Figure 11) under the cutter before working
underneath unit.
1. Lubricate the driveline slip joint every eight
operating hours. Failure to maintain proper
lubrication could result in damage to U-joints,
gearbox, and driveline.
2. Lower cutter to ground, disconnect driveline from
tractor PTO shaft, and slide halves apart but do not
disconnect from each other.
2. Do not position jackstands under wheels, axles, or
wheel supports. Components can rotate and cause
cutter to fall.
3. Consider the overall stability of the blocked unit.
Just placing jackstands underneath will not ensure
your safety.
3. Apply a bead of grease completely around male
half where it meets female half. Slide drive halves
over each other several times to distribute grease.

Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the
proper equipment and experience to perform the job.
SHIELDING REPAIR
Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate
tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld or
heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause an
increase in air pressure and result in a tire explosion.
Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.
ꢀ Full chain, rubber, or steel band shielding must
be installed when operating in populated areas or
other areas where thrown objects could injure peo-
ple or damage property.
When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and an exten-
sion hose long enough to allow you to stand to the side

cage if available.
• If this machine is not equipped with full chain,
rubber, or steel band shielding, operation must
be stopped when anyone comes within 300 feet
(92 m).
• This shielding is designed to reduce the risk
of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec-
tive devices cannot prevent all objects from
escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing
condition. It is possible for objects to ricochet
and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).
Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, dam-
aged rims, or missing lug bolts and nuts.
Never remove split rim assembly hardware (A) with the
tire inflated.
Rear Band
Inspect rear band each day of operation, replace if
bent, cracked, or broken.

PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
Grass cut lower in center of
swath than at edge
Height of cutter lower at rear or
front
Adjust cutter height and attitude so
that cutter rear and front are within
1/2" of same height. See Cutting
Height Adjustment (Mounted Cut-
ter), page 16.
Streaking conditions in swath
Conditions too wet for mowing
Allow grass to dry before mowing.
Blades unable to cut that part of
grass pressed by path of tractor

DEALER SERVICE
The information in this section is written for dealer ser-
Leakage can occur at the vertical or horizontal gaskets
and shaft seals.
vice personnel. The repair described here requires
special skills and tools. If your shop is not properly
equipped or your mechanics are not properly trained in
this type of repair, you may be time and money ahead
to replace complete assemblies.
Leakage at the horizontal gasket or seal can be
repaired without removing the gearbox from the cutter.
Seal Installation
Refer to Figure 17.
ꢀ Before working underneath, read manual
instructions, securely block up, and check stability.
Secure blocking prevents equipment from drop-
ping due to hydraulic leak down, hydraulic system
failure, or mechanical component failure.
NOTE: Proper seal installation is important. An improp-
erly installed seal will leak.
1. Clean area in housing where seal outer diameter
(OD) seats. Apply a thin coat of Permatex®.
ꢀ Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
2. Inspect area of shaft where seal seats. Remove
any burrs or nicks with an emery cloth.
CAUTION
3. Lubricate gear shaft and seal lips.
ꢀ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
4. Place seal squarely on housing, spring-loaded lip
toward housing. Select a piece of pipe or tubing
with an OD that will sit on the outside edge of the
seal but will clear the housing. Tubing with an OD
that is too small will bow seal cage and ruin seal.
5. Carefully press seal into housing, avoiding
distortion to the metal seal cage.
GEARBOX MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Read this entire section before starting any
repair. Many steps are dependent on each other.
1. Seal
2. Pipe or tube
3. Seal seat
4. Casting
1. Fill gearbox with SAE 80W or 90W gear lube until it
runs out the side level plug.
NOTE: Repair to this gearbox is limited to replac-
ing bearings, seals, and gaskets. Replacing gears,
shafts, and a housing is not cost effective. Pur-
chasing a complete gearbox is more economical.
Pipe or tube must
press at outer edge
of seal.
2. Inspect gearbox for leakage and bad bearings.
Leakage is a very serious problem and must be
corrected immediately.
Bearing failure is indicated by excessive noise and
side-to-side or end-play in gear shafts.
Seal Replacement
Recommended sealant for gearbox repair is Permatex®
Aviation 3D Form-A-Gasket or equivalent.
