SLIP CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT

The slip clutch is designed to slip so that the gearbox and driveline are protected if the cutter strikes an obstruction.

A new slip clutch or one that has been in storage over the winter may seize. Before operating the cutter, make sure it will slip by performing the following operation:

1.Turn off tractor engine and remove key.

2.Remove driveline from tractor PTO.

3.Loosen six 12 mm cap screws (7) to remove all tension from compression spring (8).

4.Hold clutch hub (3) solid and turn shaft to make sure clutch slips.

5.If clutch does not slip freely, disassemble and clean the flange yoke (1), clutch hub (3), drive plate (5), and thrust plate faces (6).

6.Reassemble clutch.

7.Compress each of the six compression springs (8) by tightening the six cap screws (7) and lock nuts (10). The compression springs should be compressed to a height of 1-7/16", not including washer (9). The minimum spring height is 1.36". See Figure 13.

8.If a clutch continues to slip when the springs are compressed to 1.36", check friction discs (2) for excessive wear. Discs are 1/8" when new. Replace discs after 1/16" wear. Minimum disc thickness is 1/16".

SHIELDING REPAIR

Full chain shielding must be installed when operating in populated areas or other areas where thrown objects could injure people or damage property.

If this machine is not equipped with full chain shielding, operation must be stopped when any- one comes within 300 feet (92 m).

This shielding is designed to reduce the risk of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec- tive devices cannot prevent all objects from escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing condition. It is possible for objects to ricochet and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).

Repairing Optional Chain Shielding

Inspect chain shielding each day of operation and replace any broken or missing chains as required.

TS1680, TS1680Q specifications

Woods Equipment has long been a prominent name in the agricultural and landscaping sectors, and its TS1680Q and TS1680 models further cement this reputation. Designed for versatility and reliability, both models shine in various applications, ranging from mowing to maintaining landscapes.

One of the standout features of the Woods TS1680Q and TS1680 is their robust build quality. Crafted with heavy-duty materials, these models are engineered to withstand the rigors of tough terrain and demanding workloads. The TS1680Q, being the quieter variant, employs advanced sound-dampening technologies, ensuring that operators can work without the disruptive noise typical of many competitors.

With a cutting width of 68 inches, both models are designed for efficiency. The wide cutting deck not only allows operators to cover more ground quickly but also ensures a clean and even cut on various grass types. The TS1680Q further enhances mowing precision with its unique floating deck design. This feature enables the cutting deck to follow ground contours, reducing scalping on uneven surfaces.

Another notable characteristic is the versatility of attachment options. Both models come equipped with a category 1 three-point hitch which allows for easy attachment of numerous implements. This adaptability means operators can use the TS1680Q and TS1680 for other tasks, such as tilling or hauling, making it a multi-functional powerhouse for any farm or landscape project.

The hydraulic system on these models is engineered for high performance. With user-friendly controls and responsive feedback, operators can adjust settings with ease. Combined with a powerful engine, the TS1680Q and TS1680 offer reliable performance and energy efficiency, contributing to reduced fuel expenditure in the long run.

Safety features are also a priority, with shields and guards designed to protect operators during use. The controls are ergonomically situated to minimize potential hazards. Additionally, the low center of gravity design ensures stable operation, reducing the risk of tipping especially while working on inclines.

In conclusion, the Woods Equipment TS1680Q and TS1680 models are designed with the modern user in mind. Their blend of durability, innovative technology, and operational versatility makes them a top choice for both agricultural use and landscaping projects. Whether you're a farmer looking for reliable mowing solutions or a landscaper in need of a versatile implement, these models deliver exceptional performance and value.
