Replacing the belt on the Combi unit

On these cutting units with “collision-proof” blades, the blades are driven by one V-belt. Do as follows to replace the V-belt:

1.Dismantle the cutting unit. See “Side shifting the cutting unit” on page 45.

2.Remove the screws for the covers. Lift off the protective covers from over the belts.

3.Pry off the old belt from the belt pulleys. Use a pry bar if necessary to offload the spring and release the belt tension.
