BLADES

Use protective gloves to prevent cuts
when changing blades.
Make sure the blades are always sharp. This gives
the best mowing results.
Always check the blades after an impact. If the
blade system has been damaged, the defective
parts must be replaced.
Always use original spare parts.Using
non-original spare parts can result in
the risk of damage even if they fit in the
machine.
The blades are contra-rotating. This
means that there is a right blade anda
left blade. When replacing blades,
make sure that they are assembled cor-
rectly.
Assemble the blades in accordance with figure 15
where the blade tips are marked. The blade's fold-
ed up edge must be placed inwards towards the
blade fastener.
When changing blades, the blade nuts and bolts
should also be changed.Tightening torque: 24 Nm.

DRIVE BELT

Both blades are driven inside the mowing deck by
a toothed drive belt.
If any of the blades have hit a solid object (e.g. a
stone), the belt tension can change. This means
that the drive belt can “miss-mesh”, which in the
long term can damage the blades.
After a heavy impact,always check that
both blades are positioned at right an-
gles to each other (fig. 15).
The blades' respective work areas overlap one oth-
er.If the blades' positions in relation toone another
have been changed, there is a great risk that they
can impact each other.This results in serious dam-
age to the mowing deck.
If this is the case, take the machinewith mowing
deck to a service workshop for repair and inspec-
tion.
