When mounting cutting units on fraction units with serial number prior to 491352 place the spacer above carrier frame. 1474 Figure 1 1 Castor wheel assembly 2 Carrier frame 3 Spacer 4 Thrust washer 5 Retaining ring 3.
INSTALL DRIVE BELT 1. Route belt around deck drive pulley and engine clutch pulley (Fig. must be between belt guides. Figure 3 3 Belt guides 1 Drive pulley 2 Clutch pulley (not shown} 2. Thread two (2} jam nuts on each adjusting shaft approximately & in. (Fig. 4). 3. Slide a washer, spring and bushing onto each adjusting shaft. install bushing with flange end against spring. 4. Insert spring end of adjusting shaft into hole in deck mounting bracket and other end into carrier frame mounting tab.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ADJUST HEIGHT-OF-CUT GRASS DEFLECTOR The height-of-cut is adjustable from 17th 4" or2" to 5" (depending on fraction unity in 1/2” increments by A WARNING relocating clevis pins in different hole locations in brackets at each corner of cutting unit {Fig, 5). Stop The grass deflector (Fig. 6) is a safety device engine before making height—of —cut adjustment. that diverts grass and other foreign objects discharged downward.

MAINTENANCE REPLACE CASTOR ARM BUSHINGS Castor arms have bushings pressed into the top and bottom of the tube. To check bushings, move castor fork back and forth, and side-to-side. if castor spindle is loose, bushings are worn and must be replaced. 1. Raise cutting unit so castor wheels are off the floor and block up with jack stands. 2. Remove retaining ring, thrust washer(s) and spacer (if installed on top) from top of castor spindle (Fig.
MAINTENANCE CHECK FOR BENT BLADE 1. Park mower on & level surface. Turn PTO switch OFF, turn engine OFF engage parking brake and disconnect spark plug wire(s). 2. Rotate blade(s) until the ends face forward and backward. Measure from inside of curling unit to cutting edge at front of blade (Fig. 10), and remember this dimension. 1083 Figure 10 3. Rotate opposite end of blade forward. Measure between the cutting unit and cutting edge of blade at the same position as in step 2.
MAINTENANCE CHECK BLADE SAIL AND SHARPENING Both cutting edges and blade sail contribute to good quality-of-cut. The sail, the turned up portion opposite the cutting edge, is important as it pulls grass up straight, thereby producing an even cut. The sail gradually wears down during operation, this condition is normal. As the sail wears down, the quality-of-cut will degrade, although the cutting edges are sharpened. The cutting edge of the blade must be sharp so the grass is cut rather than torn.
MAINTENANCE CORRECTING CUTTING UNIT MISMATCH If one cutter blade cuts lower than the others, correct as follows: 1. Park mower on a level surface. Turn PTO switch QFF, wrn engine OFF, engage parking brake and disconnect spark plug wire(s). 2. Adjust tire pressure in all tires to specifications and check that biased) are not bent: refer to Checking for Bent Blade. 3. Place height-of-cut to the 2-1/2 in. position: refer to Adjusting Height-Of-Cut. Make sure height-of-cut pins are resting on frame cushions. 4.
MAINTENANCE 5. Install new bat around spindle pulleys and idler pulley. Hook spring to tidier arm {Fig. 18). REPLACE GRASS DEFLECTOR 1. Remove bolts, lock nuts and springs securing deflector mounts to privet bracket (Fig. 17). 2. To remove pivot brackets, remove carriage bolts and nuts (Fig. 17).
