7.8 DRIVE BELTS

All drive belts are spring-loaded and self-tensioning, however after the first 2, 4, 8 and 10 hours of operation, the belts should be checked for proper alignment and wear. Thereafter, check the belts after every 40 hours of operation or weekly, whichever occurs first.

- NOTE -

If you experience frequent belt wear or breakage, see your authorized Scag service center for belt adjustment.

7.9 CUTTER BLADES

A. Blade Inspection

1.Remove the ignition key before servicing the blades.

2.Raise the mower deck to the highest position. Place the lanyard pin in the highest cutting height position to prevent the cutter deck from falling.

WARNING

Always wear proper hand and eye protection when working with cutter blades.

3.Check the cutter blades for straightness. If the cutter blades appear bent, they will need to be replaced.

B. Blade Sharpening

- NOTE -

If possible, use a file to sharpen the blade. Using a wheel grinder may burn the blade.

- NOTE -

DO NOT sharpen the blades beyond 1/3 of the width of the blade. See Figure 7-7.

1.Sharpen the cutting edge at the same bevel as the original. See Figure 7-7. Sharpen only the top of the cutting edge to maintain sharpness.

2.Check the balance of the blade. If the blades are out of balance, vibration and premature wear can occur. See your authorized Scag dealer for blade balancing or special tools, if you choose to balance your own blades.

C. Blade Replacement

WARNING

Do not attempt to straighten a bent blade, and never weld a broken or cracked blade. Always replace it with a new blade to assure safety.

WARNING

Always wear proper hand and eye protection when working with cutter blades.

4.If a blade cutting edge is dull or nicked, it should be sharpened. Remove the blades for sharpening. See "Blade Replacement."

- NOTE -

Keep the blades sharp. Cutting with dull blades not only yields a poor mowing job, but slows the cutting speed of the mower and causes extra wear on the engine and the blade drive by pulling hard.

1.Remove the ignition key before replacing the blades.

2.Raise the mower deck to the highest position. Place the lanyard pin in the highest cutting height position to prevent the cutter deck from falling.

3.Secure the cutter blades to prevent them from rotating, (use the optional Blade Buddy tool P/N 9212, to assist in securing the cutter blades), remove the nut from the blade attaching bolt. Remove the cutter blade, bolt and spacer from the spindle shaft. See Figure 7-8.
