Changing to Forward or Reverse Rotation
WING MOWER
The hydraulic wing motors are dual rotation motors which means they will rotate in either direction depending on the inlet port used. To change rotation, remove the four bolts that mount the manifold block to the motor. Remove the case drain hose at the motor. Leave all other plumbing as presently installed at the manifold block. Remove the two mounting bolts at the motor mounting plate and rotate the motor approx. 150 degree counter clockwise looking from the mainfold block end of the motor. This changes the present inlet port into the outlet port of the motor.
**The Motor Mount Plate has 4 holes located at approximately 4, 10, 11, and 5 o'clock positions as viewed from rear of Motor. The 2 unused mounting holes will now be used to
Replacing Cutter Unit Knives
