BALANCE STATEMENT  
Both of the Woods Center Drive Shredder flail tubes  
wear unevenly. This can reduce their chopping  
effect and also increase vibration levels.  
are balanced as rotor assemblies to meet or exceed  
factory standards before installation. After installation,  
the shredders are statistically inspected to check bal-  
ance. These factory efforts allow the shredder to oper-  
ate smoothly and be free of excessive vibration when  
delivered to the customer.  
Hitting large rocks or other foreign objects can  
damage knives and other rotor parts, causing  
excessive vibration.  
Over time, certain types of soil and crops can also  
lead to uneven knife wear and increased vibration  
levels.  
Once field operation has been started, it is the  
operator’s responsibility to check and maintain  
shredder rotor balance.  
The operator must be familiar with all safety  
rules and safety decals before installing and run-  
ning the shredder. All personnel must be familiar  
with and stay out of the hazard area whenever the  
shredder is running. (See Figure 14, page 21).  
If knife replacement is required due to wear or  
damage, refer to REPLACING FLAILS, page 30.  
Throughout the life of the flail shredder, removing  
the flail tubes for replacement or re-balance may  
be necessary.  
Smooth, acceptable vibration levels can be easily esti-  
mated in the field. After machine shutdown and coast  
down has been completed, place a quarter on a clean  
top panel of the shredder. At full rotor rpm (while main-  
taining all safety rules regarding safe distances from  
rotating equipment) observe the quarter. If the quarter  
stays still and does not bounce around, the operator  
can estimate that the shredder is free from excessive  
vibration. If the quarter jumps around during full rotor  
rpm, the shredder may be operating with excessive  
vibration where troubleshooting and maintenance are  
required (refer to the Troubleshooting section).  
If flail tube replacement is required due to wear or  
damage, refer to SERVICING ROTORS (FLAIL  
TUBES), page 31.  
Any re-balance should be done with all knives  
installed.  
Factory balanced repair rotors are available  
through your local Woods dealer.  
Consult with your local balance shop experts or  
contact Woods Technical Service for re-balance or  
replacement options.  
The Woods Center Drive Flail Shredder has been  
designed for maximum durability when shredding any  
type of crop. While operating in the field, many factors  
can affect and degrade shredder rotor balance and  
cause increased vibration levels.  
Continued operation with excessive vibration can  
cause damage to and shorten component life, void  
product warranty, and affect personal safety. Checking  
and maintaining shredder rotor balance is the owner/  
operator’s responsibility.  
Operating too low to the ground or in frequent con-  
tact with the ground can cause the flail knives to

SAFETY RULES  
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!  
PREPARATION  
Use a suitable lifting device of sufficient capac-  
ity. Use adequate personnel to handle heavy com-  
ponents.  
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.  
Check that all hardware is properly installed.  
Always tighten to torque chart specifications  
unless instructed otherwise in this manual.  
In addition to the design and configuration of  
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-  
tion are dependent upon the awareness, concern,  
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.  
judgement, and proper training of personnel  
involved in the operation, transport, maintenance  
and storage of equipment.  
It has been said “The best safety device is an  
informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be that  
kind of operator.  
TRAINING  
Make sure all hydraulic hoses, fittings, and  
valves are in good condition and not leaking before  
starting power unit or using equipment. Check and  
route hoses carefully to prevent damage. Hoses  
must not be twisted, bent sharply, kinked, frayed,  
pinched, or come into contact with any moving  
parts. Operate moveable components through full  
operational range to check clearances. Replace  
any damaged hoses immediately.  
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.  
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.  
If you do not understand any part of this manual  
and need assistance, see your dealer.  
Know your controls and how to stop engine and  
attachment quickly in an emergency.  
Make sure attachment is properly secured,  
adjusted, and in good operating condition.  
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.  
Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar  
slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO  
spline groove.  
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 system in “locked up” position at all times.  
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-  
TACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID  
ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.  
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.  
Never allow children or untrained persons to  
operate equipment.

slopes and rough terrain.  
Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during  
operation.  
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.  
Stop power unit and equipment immediately  
upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine,  
remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before  
resuming operation.

lower equipment to ground or block securely, turn  
off engine, remove key, and disconnect driveline  
from tractor PTO.  
Make certain all movement of equipment com-  
ponents has stopped before approaching for ser-  
vice.  
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.  
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.  
Work not covered in SERVICE & MAINTENANCE  
must be done by a qualified dealership. Special  
skills, tools, and safety procedures may be  
required. Failure to follow these instructions can  
result in serious injury or death.  
Do not handle knives with bare hands. Careless  
or improper handling may result in serious injury.  
Do not modify or alter or permit anyone else to  
modify or alter the equipment or any of its compo-  
nents in any way.

PRINCIPAL COMPONENTS  
The Woods Flail Shredder consists of a large rotating  
tube with swinging steel flails attached. The flails pick  
up or strike crop residue or trash and shred it. Rota-  
tional power to the drum is provided by the tractor PTO  
through a gearbox in the center of the machine.  
For removing the center strip of crop residue, an  
optional hydraulically driven blade can be installed  
under the cover in the center of the machine.  
Never allow children or untrained persons to  
operate equipment.  
Make sure shields and guards are properly  
installed and in good condition. Replace if damaged.  
The flail shredder is designed to be used as a semi-  
mounted, or 3-point mounted machine.  
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from  
equipment while engine is running. Stay clear of all  
moving parts.

___ Inspect all hydraulic lines, hoses, couplers, and  
fittings. Tighten, repair, or replace any leaking or  
damaged components.  
PRE-OPERATION CHECK LIST  
(OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY)  
___ Install and secure all guards, doors, and covers.  
NOTICE  
This Pre-Operation Check List is provided for  
the operator. It is important to follow for both per-  
sonal safety and maintenance of the flail shredder.  
___ Check PTO clutch operation (see . Weasler Auto-  
matic Clutch (30K), page 33).  
CHOOSING THE CORRECT TRACTOR  
___ Check all lubrication points and grease as  
instructed in Lubrication Service Record, page  
27.  
To ensure safe and reliable operation of the flail shred-  
der, use a tractor with the correct specifications. Use  
the following guidelines to select the correct tractor.  
___ Use only a tractor of adequate power and weight  
to pull the unit. (See chart on page 16.)  
1. Horsepower  
___ Check that the unit is properly attached to the  
tractor. On pull-type unit, be sure there is a  
mechanical retainer through the drawbar pin and  
the safety chain is installed. On 3-point hitch  
units, be sure retainers are used on the mounting  
pins.  
Use Table 1 on page 16 for selecting the tractor horse-  
power class appropriate for your unit’s width.  
Increase the horsepower level by 25 percent when  
operating in hilly, soft, or wet conditions.  
2. Tractor Weight  
___ Check oil level in gearbox. Add oil as required.  
By following recommendations for tractor horsepower,  
the tractor will have sufficient weight to provide stability  
for unit during field operation or when transporting.  
___ Check that the PTO driveline turns freely and that  
the driveline can telescope easily.  
When using a 3-point mounted shredder, we recom-  
mend that each tractor be equipped with a full comple-  
ment of suitcase weights on the tractor front (see  
Figure 2 for example). This will provide the required  
front weight for turning and extra traction if equipped  
with front wheel assist.  
___ Check tire pressure. Inflate to specified level.  
___ Check flails. Inspect for damage or breakage.  
Make sure they swing freely on their mount.  
Repair or replace as required.  
___ Check condition of cutter blade (if so equipped).

3. 3-Point Hitch  
The operator is responsible for measuring the  
dimensions of the driveline through its working  
range. These dimensions will indicate if the drive-  
line requires shorting to operate on the particular  
tractor/unit attachment system. The operator must  
check dimensions before using the unit for the first  
time and each time a different tractor is used with  
the unit.  
The 3-point hitch models require that the tractor be  
equipped with a Category II or Category III 3-point  
hitch. If the hitch can be converted from one to the  
other, use a Category III to provide a wider stance and  
more stability.  
Use the upper top link hole for Category III and the  
lower hole for Category II as shown in Figure 3.  
Use the following procedure when determining  
driveline dimension:  
For easier attachment, use a quick hitch. If not using a  
quick hitch, use optional hitch extension.  
4. Hydraulic Requirements when Using Center  
Cutter Options  
Keep bystanders away from equipment.  
1. Clear the area of all bystanders.  
The tractor hydraulic system must be capable of 8 gpm  
(30 lpm) at 1500 psi (10,335 kPa). The system cannot  
exceed 28 gpm or 3000 psi. Either closed-centered or  
open-centered systems can be used.  
2. Attach the 3-point hitch to the unit but not the PTO  
driveline.  
3. Raise the unit until the tractor PTO and gearbox  
5. Load Sensing Hydraulics (3-Point Models Only)  
shafts are the same height.  
Many newer tractors are equipped with “load sensing”  
hydraulics. The operator is responsible for setting the  
tractor hydraulic system to provide “float” on the 3-point  
hitch. Refer to the tractor manual for specific instruc-  
tions.  
4. Measure the dimension between the shaft grooves  
on the tractor and implement ends. If this  
dimension is less than 34.81 inches, the shaft will  
require shortening.  
5. Move the unit to its highest and lowest working  
position and measure this dimension again. [The  
unit’s shaft can telescope (see Figure 5) before it  
has been shortened.]  
The “float” feature will allow the unit to follow the  
ground contours during operation. This applies to 3-  
point mounted machines only.  
NOTICE  
6. If required, shorten the shaft to prevent bottoming  
out during use. NOTE: An extra inch of  
compression space in the shaft can eliminate  
bottoming out during use. Measure to make sure.  
Do not use PTO shaft adapters. They will  
change the drawbar dimension and can cause driv-  
eline failures.

With Quick Hitch Attachment:  
4. Set the height of the 3-point hitch so that quick  
hitch claws are lower than the mounting pins.  
5. Make sure 3-point hitch is set in the non-sway  
position. See tractor manual for details.  
6. Align the claws under the lower and upper mast  
mounting pins while backing up.

cutting height.  
Flail Height  
“L” Flails  
Set the unit to give a flail height of at least 3 to 6  
inches (75 to 150 mm) above the ground. This will  
minimize the amount of stones and dirt picked up by  
the flails under all operating conditions. (See Balance  
Statement, page 5.)  
“L” flails (Figure 10) work best when trash or crop resi-  
due is standing.  
Cup Flails  
Cup flails (Figure 11) can pick up material from the  
ground and work best in matted trash conditions.  
NOTE: To avoid unnecessary wear on knives and  
related parts, never set the unit lower than the recom-  
mended setting. (See Balance Statement, page 5.)  
The standard cup flail is 11 inches (279 mm) long and  
is used for most applications. Optional 7 and 9 inch  
(177 and 228 mm) flails are available to match the tip  
position to ground contour.  
SET OPERATING HEIGHT  
Use stroke control spacers. The number and thickness  
should be equal on each cylinder to keep shredder  
level.  
Attach optional cup flails as follows, making sure that  
knives at 180° match (see Figure 9) (see Balance  
Statement, page 5):

Setting Caster Wheels  
Normally, wheels are set to track in the row centers,  
between the raised seed beds. Tire position will deter-  
mine flail height, but depth of furrow is also a factor in  
setting flail height. In some conditions the furrow  
between the seed beds is deeper on the ends, where  
irrigation waters enter the field. As furrows change  
depth, flail height will change.  
To compensate for the depth change, move the caster  
wheels against the side of the outer seed bed (see Fig-  
ure 13). The wheels will then tend to climb up the side  
of the seed bed and prevent the flails from hitting the  
top of the bed.

STOPPING THE SHREDDER  
GROUND SPEED  
Travel speed can vary between 3 and 8 mph (5 and 13  
kmph) depending on the bulk of residue and terrain  
conditions. The operator is responsible for noting the  
condition of the work, setting the speed to obtain a  
quality shredding job, and maintaining control of the  
unit.  
Before dismounting power unit or performing  
any service or maintenance, follow these steps:  
disengage power to equipment, lower the 3-point  
hitch and all raised components to the ground,  
operate valve levers to release any hydraulic pres-  
sure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove key,  
and unfasten seat belt.

3. Closely monitor gearbox for 10 hours of operation.  
Check and service oil every 30 minutes or as  
needed to ensure operation does not occur with oil  
below the add mark.  
GEARBOX OIL LEAKAGE  
NOTICE  
Major oil leakage from the gearbox shaft seal  
area is not acceptable and could cause the gearbox  
to fail due to lack of lubrication and cooling. It is  
the operator’s responsibility to check the gearbox  
oil level per the Lubrication Service Table.  
4. If after 10 hours of operation, oil covers less than  
the area described in 1 & 2 above, seepage is  
considered to be acceptable.  
5. If after 10 hours of operation, oil covers more than  
the area described in 1 & 2 above, this seepage is  
considered to be unacceptable leakage.  
Before checking gearbox oil level, shut down the  
shredder for a couple of hours to allow the oil to drain  
back into the reservoir for the most accurate reading.  
Proper oil level should be between the full and add  
lines on dipstick. When oil is needed, add through the  
dipstick tube.  
6. Gearboxes with unacceptable leakage should be  
rebuilt, replacing old seals and worn parts with new  
seals and parts. Gearbox rebuild and seal  
replacement parts are available through your local  
Woods dealer. Consult with Woods Technical  
NOTICE  
DO NOT OVERFILL. Lab tests have proven that  
overfilling the gearbox can dramatically increase  
the gearbox operating temperature. In extreme  
cases this can overheat the oil, reducing its lubri-  
cating and cooling properties, and eventually  
cause shaft seals to deteriorate and fail. Over-  
heated oil has an obvious burnt smell; drain it and  
refill with new oil. Overfilling gearbox oil can void  
the warranty.  
Service

recommendations, or warranty questions.  
CHANGING GEARBOX OIL  
Although gearbox oil never wears out, dust, dirt, and  
moisture can enter through the breather during opera-  
tion. These contaminants must be removed once a  
year to ensure a long life for working components. In  
very dusty or dirty conditions, change the oil twice a  
year.  
The gearbox should not require frequent servicing of  
oil. It is not designed to consume or lose large amounts  
of oil. If oil needs to be added frequently, troubleshoot-  
ing the cause is required (see section below).  
1. Clear area of bystanders, especially children.  
2. Shut off tractor, place all controls in neutral, set  
parking brake, remove key, and wait for all moving  
parts to stop.  
Gearbox leakage & Troubleshooting  
Some gearbox oil leakage may be acceptable if:  
1. Oil covers less than a 3-inch diameter circle around  
3. Raise the unit to provide access to underside.

Refer to Replacing knives, page 30, for knife or knife  
component replacement.  
Once field operation has been started, it is the  
responsibility of the owner/operator to monitor and  
maintain acceptable rotor balance. Refer to Bal-  
ance Statement, page 5, for details.  
Refer to Servicing Rotors, page 31, before proceeding  
with these steps.  
1. Follow steps in the previous section to prepare and  
position shredder. Support each end of the rotor

component replacement.  
4. Slide rotor out to disengage from the center drive  
coupling.  
The Woods Center Drive Flail Shredder has been  
designed for durability when shredding any type of  
crop. Some operating conditions will shorten the life of  
the shredder or components. These include operating  
too low to the ground or in frequent contact with the  
ground, and contact with large rocks or other foreign  
objects. Over time, some types of soils and crops can  
cause wear or damage to rotor components and affect  
rotor balance, leading to increased vibration. Contin-  
ued operation with excessive vibration can damage the  
shredder, requiring rotor service, removal, or replace-  
ment.

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.

To minimize the potential hazards of working under-  
neath the shredder, follow these procedures.  
1. Jackstands with a load rating of 2000 lbs or more  
are the only approved blocking device for this  
shredder. Install a minimum of four jackstands  
under the shredder before working underneath  
unit.  
42 Assembly  
MAN0943 (07/12/2011)  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Do not position jackstands under wheels, axles, or  
wheel supports. Components can rotate and cause  
shredder to fall.  
2. Consider the overall stability of the blocked unit.  
Just placing jackstands underneath will not ensure  
your safety.  
The working surface must be level and solid to  
support the weight on the jackstands. Make sure  
jackstands are stable, both top and bottom. Make  
sure shredder is approximately level.  
3. With full shredder weight lowered onto jackstands,  
test blocking stability before working underneath.  
4. If shredder is attached to tractor when blocking, set  
the brakes, remove key, and block shredder before  
working underneath.  
5. Securely block rear tractor wheels, in front and  
behind. Tighten tractor lower 3-point arm anti-sway  
mechanism to prevent side-to-side movement.  
Assemble Motor and Blade - Figure 52  
1. Install elbow (8), adapter (9), elbow (10) and hose  
(11) to the IN or PRESSURE side of the hydraulic  
motor.

BOLT TORQUE CHART  
Always tighten hardware to these values unless a different torque value or tightening procedure is listed for a specific  
application.  
Fasteners must always be replaced with the same grade as specified in the manual parts list.  
Always use the proper tool for tightening hardware: SAE for SAE hardware and Metric for metric hardware.  
Make sure fastener threads are clean and you start thread engagement properly.  
All torque values are given to specifications used on hardware defined by SAE J1701 MAR 99 & J1701M JUL 96.
