Page 40 INTRODUCTION We are pleased to have you as a Rhino customer. Your Rotary Cutter has been carefully designed with care and built with quality materials by skilled workers to give maximum service with minimum down time. This manual is provided to give you the necessary operating and maintenance instructions for keeping your rotary cutter in top operating condition.
Page 41: Equipment Specifications
INTRODUCTION The Rhino Model TS10 Rotary Cutter is designed primarily for weed and grass control, and cutting small brush to 2” diameter. The TS10 targets tractors in the 25-60 horsepower class. Designed specifically for customers with smaller tractors, this machine’s very short wheel base, and its anti-scalp features make this the ideal machine for customers who need a flex- wing cutter’s versatility but may not have a tractor large enough to pull a 15 foot unit.
Page 42: Key Operation Points
A. Warranty is ONE-YEAR (12 MONTHS) for Seals (After one year, seals are considered to be WEARING PARTS and replacement is the users' responsibility.) B. Users' Gearboxes may be rebuilt by Rhino or replaced by new or rebuilt Gearboxes at the option of Rhino.
