Cutting Unit, Cutterhead Removal, Wheel Removal

MAINTENANCE

CUTTING UNIT

Remove spark plug lead and disengage cutter drive before working on cutter unit, to prevent accidental starting of the engine.

Before using the machine always inspect cutting unit to ensure that the cutting disc, blades and blade fittings are not worn or damaged.

Always check after striking a solid object. Do not operate machine when unusual vibration occurs. Replace worn or damaged blades in sets to preserve balance.

Remove any build-up of grass or clogging within the cutting unit, discharge chute or stone guard.

CUTTERHEAD REMOVAL

Fig. 12

1.Disconnect push rods & brake rod. Fig. 12

2.Remove the tensioning spring. A loop has been provided on the spring to assist in this operation. Fig. 12

3.Slide cutterback towards back of machine and remove belt from around cutterdeck pulley.

4.Undo large retaining washer bolts (A) Fig. 12 This will allow front of deck to be lowered to ground.

5.Slide cutterdeck forward. This will allow the rear to be lowered to the ground and be slid from under the machine.

6.Replace in reverse order.

NOTE:

To remove cutterdeck belt from machine, the belt guard has to be moved away from the drive pulley to allow the belt to be removed from the V-groove and the cutterhead lifting rod is to be disengaged from the cutterhead selection arm assembly to allow belt to be drawn out.
