• Suggested cutting Speed for the Buzzbar is 1st
gear. Slow down for thick, dense, or hard
material.
• Always cut with the boom positioned
perpinducular to the limbs being cut (see
diagram). Cutting with the boom swing
backward or forward will cause the blades to
warp from “raking” through the cut material.

blades to contact hard items such as the
ground or metal objects.
• Check belt tension daily.If belts start to slip
adjust tension soon. The more belt slippage,
the more they will wear and looser they
become.
