BACK ROLLER

The back rollers are fabricated from thick line pipe, rolled on both ends to prevent scuffing and mounted on discs secured to a main drive shaft rotating on sealed ball bearings with machined steel bearing housings. The drive is through a 35 tooth sprocket on the chain case side.

TO REMOVE THE BACK ROLLER

Turn off petrol.

Remove chain case.

Remove back roller chain.

Remove back roller sprocket (left-hand thread) if required.

Remove small cover plate behind the 35 tooth sprocket.

Lift machine forward and lean petrol tank on 20 litre drum or lift handles.

Remove bearing housing bolts and this will release the rear roller including the sprocket.

Lift out back roller from chassis.

Service bearings and roller as found necessary.

Refit roller, bearing bolts and cover plate in side case.

Lift mower back taking care not to drop on the back roller.

Refit drive sprocket (knock up tight).

Refit chain and adjust.

Refit chain case and seal.

Check alignment and use the cam nut on the non chaincase sideplate to adjust as required.

VERTIMOWING

As the name suggests, the machine is designed to cut or ‘mow’ the grass vertically. The process aims to free the root base of thatch which restricts water, and nutrient penetration.

The M.E.Y. vertimower has not been designed as a tiller! Depending on the turf condition, one might expect the blades to penetrate 10mm into the soil. The life of the blades will be directly related to the depth of cut and the soil hardness. Watering the surface on the night before can greatly ease the blade wear.

Scarifiers are available for slicing the turf root system to depths of say 40mm.
