Bring the belt back across the center sheave in the center groove over to the right outside sheave.

Figure 7.

Then thread it back across the front of the center sheave in the top groove.

Figure 8.

Proper Twist: The belt then follows with a 3/4 twist back under the left V-idler, up over the drive sheave and back down under the right idler pulley. This will

leave a 1/4 twist in the section of belt extending from the right V-idler to lower groove of the center mower sheave.

Adjust the mower to proper cutting height. The front of the mower should be slightly lower than the rear of the best cutting and least power requirement.

Idler Adjustment: Make minor belt adjustment with idlers but keep left idler about 1" above being in line with the groove in which the belt runs on the center sheave of the mower and right idler about 1" below. Move mower fore and aft for major adjustments. On L306K210, K260, S, and F10, use belt takeup idlers on mower deck for major adjustment.

LEAF MULCHER (OPTIONAL)

1.Turn the mower upside down on saw horses. If mower has a bolt-on front shield, adjust shield all the way down in long slots. Remove side shields. Leave side skids on. If optional front roller has been installed, it must be removed.

2.On mowers with bent-down front frame, remove center baffle and drill three 7/16 diameter holes (two on 59’s) in front of mower at the diameter shown on drawing.

3.Attach slotted angles (2) or (3 & 4) to leaf mulcher as shown on drawing.

4.Place leaf mulcher over blades on mower. Attach angles (2) or (3 & 4) and mower side shield to side frame angle on mower. All 59 mowers and L306 mowers with bolt-on front shield will use front shield hole to attach angles (2) or (3 & 4). L306 mowers with bent-down front frame will use 2nd hole behind skid to attach angles (3 & 4). Bolt side shields to mower using 3/8 flat washers for spac- ers.

5.On mowers with bolt-on front shield, bolt front of leaf mulcher to bottom of slots in front shield with 3/8 x 1" bolts and flat washers. On mowers with bent-down front frame, bolt leaf mulcher to inside of mower in holes drilled in front frame using 3/8 x 1" bolts on L306, and on L59’s use 3/8 x 1-1/2 bolts and 5/8 long pipe spacers between leaf mulcher and mower. On some mowers where 5/8" pipe may be too long, substitute 3/8 flat washers.

6.Drill 7/16 holes in rear of mower deck through holes in leaf mulcher rear plates and bolt rear of leaf mulcher to deck using 3/8 x 1" bolts.

7.Tighten all bolts securely. Turn each blade individu- ally inside the leaf mulcher to see that it clears the leaf mulcher rings. If necessary, the rings may be re-shaped with a hammer to clear the leaf mulcher rings.
