Collector - Brush
If the brush has become worn or damaged it is simple to replace the whole brush assembly or individual bristles.
TO REMOVE THE BRUSH STOCK
1.Remove the grass bag assembly by lifting it off the pivot brackets.
2.Detach the collector from the tractor.
3.Locate the 1/4" nut and bolt at each end of the brush and undo and remove using a 1/6" spanner and socket. Keep safely taking care not to lose the washers.
4.Now remove the cover mouldings and free the brush stock.
5.You can now slide off the brush bosses which each hold three brushes. Note their position on the brush stock (fig 1) which must alternate when you return them.
6.Slide out and replace individual brushes where necessary and then
7.When you replace the cover mouldings note that the holes to take the spindles are off centre and are located at the furthest end of the brush stock.
Note: This edge should be regularly wiped and kept clean to ensure that grass cuttings do not build up and solidify imparing the grass discharge and causing damage
to the brushes.
