power head shaft to lower shaft assembly

Tools Required: None

Parts Required: PAS or SRM-SB Power Head w/Shaft & Coupling.

B

1.Set Power Head/Shaft Assembly on a level surface.

2.Pull locator pin (A) out, and turn counter-clockwise 1/4 turn to lock-out position.

3.Remove vinyl cap from attachment drive shaft.

4.Carefully fit attachment drive shaft assembly into coupler (B) to decal assembly line (C), making sure that the inner lower drive shaft engages into the square upper drive shaft socket.

NOTE

Earlier model Power Heads may have shorter couplings. Short couplings fit flush to decal point (E). New couplings are 4-3/4 in. long, and fit flush to line (C).

fender/wheel assembly adjustment

Dethatcher combing efficiency is best when the full weight of the dethatcher assembly rests on the tines during operation. Wheel height should be adjusted for 6 - 13 mm (0.25 - 0.50 in.) above ground for operational stability over uneven grass. Perform wheel height adjust- ment procedures as follows:

1.Loosen (2) two lower hex head wheel bracket bolts (B) with 4 mm hex wrench.

2.Hold unit in comfortable operating position on a flat surface and check for wheel to ground clearance of 6 - 13 mm (0.25 - 0.50 in.).

3.Rotate wheels towards tines to reduce ground clearance; away from tines to increase ground clearance. Tighten bolts (B).
