INSTALL CHAIN OR BELT SHIELDING
Full chain shielding must be installed when operating in populated areas or other areas where thrown objects could injure people or damage property.
•If this machine is not equipped with full chain shielding, operation must be stopped when any- one comes within 300 feet (92 m).
•This shielding is designed to reduce the risk of thrown objects. The mower deck and protec- tive devices cannot prevent all objects from escaping the blade enclosure in every mowing
condition. It is possible for objects to ricochet and escape, traveling as much as 300 feet (92 m).
Install chain and rubber shields with hardware as shown. (Refer to Figure 34 and Figure 35 for Chain Shielding Installation; Figure 36 and Figure 37 for Belt Shielding Installation.)
NOTE: CHAIN SHIELDING - Center Section: Attach rear chain plates (4) to the top of center section. Attach center chain plate (18) to the bottom of the center sec- tion. Wing: Install four (two per wing)
(13)to the wing skid shoes. Secure with carriage bolts
(14)and flange lock nuts (15). See Figure 35.
