MAINTENANCE

Chain Guards

Inspect the chain guards for any missing chains or cables. Replace any missing chains by undoing the retaining cable clamp. Slide the cable back and insert new 5/16” chain through the slot. Slide the cable back through the chains and re-fasten the cable clamp. Missing chains may allow debris to be thrown out from under the mower. See Image Mnt-R-0235.

Winch & Cable

(If Equipped)

The winch should be checked weekly. The cable should be replaced at the first sign of fraying or wire breakage. Check to see that the winch functions properly. It should make a “clicking” sound when the cable is being wound up. There should be a resistance when releasing the cable. You should not be able to unwind the winch by pulling on the cable. If the winch does not function properly, replace it. If the winch failed during use, one of the wings could drop suddenly. See Image Mnt-R-0236.
