MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

DRIVELINE LUBRICATION

Grease fittings are located on the cross and bearing kit assemblies of both U-joints. U-joints should be greased after every 8 hours of operation. See figure 10 for the location of the grease fittings. Do not force grease through the needle bearing cup assemblies.

BLADE SPINDLE LUBRICATION

Blade spindles must be lubricated after every 8 hours of operation. Access the lubrication fittings through the holes in the belt guards. Each spindle is supplied with a grease fitting on top, and it must be lubricated sufficiently so that a small amount of grease escapes through the bleed hole on their underside. Do not force large amounts of grease on the spindles, as it may get on the drive belts.

Figure 10

The metal telescoping drive tubes inside the plastic shield tubes must be lubricated before each use. See figure 11.

Disconnect the driveline from the tractor and pull halves apart (do not disconnect the driveline that is attached to the mower gearbox). Insert grease into drive tube and spread it evenly. Reconnect the two driveline halves together. Reconnect the driveline to the tractor PTO, raise and lower the mower several times so that the grease just applied spreads over the entire working area of the drive tubes.

BLADE SERVICING

Use only correct specified blades on your mower. They are manufactured of special heat-treated alloy steel. Substitute blades may not meet specifications and may fail in a hazardous manner, which could cause injury.

BLADE SHARPENING

To maintain a proper blade balance, always sharpen both ends of the blade equally. Follow the sharpening pattern as shown on figure 12. Do not sharpen the blades to a razor edge, but leave a 1/32” blunt edge. Never sharpen the back side of the blades.

W ARNING!

Avoid personal injury! Always support or block the mower when servicing the blades, carrier or any other component on the underside of the deck.

W ARNING!

When attaching the driveline yoke to the tractor PTO shaft, it is important that the spring activated locking collar turns freely and that the locking pin is seated on the PTO shaft groove. A loose yoke could slip off and result in personal injury or damage to the mower.

Hold the end of the blade using heavy leather gloves and remove the left hand threaded bolt.
