Understanding Counterbalance Performing a Fan-Reverse Operation The counterbalance system maintains hydraulic back pressure on the deck-lift cylinders. This pressure improves traction by transferring the mower-deck weight to the mower-drive wheels. The counterbalance pressure has been set at the factory to an optimal balance of after-cut appearance and traction capability in most turf conditions. The machine-fan speed is controlled by the hydraulic-fluid temperature and engine-coolant temperature.
Important: Do not run the starter motor increments. By holding the switch down, the engine automatically moves to HIGH or LOW IDLE, depending on which part of the switch you pressed. more than 30 seconds at a time or premature starter failure may result. If the engine fails to start after 30 seconds, turn the key to the OFF position, check the controls and procedures, wait 30 additional seconds, and repeat the starting procedure. 5.

Wrap the blades or wear gloves, and use caution when servicing the blades. Only replace or sharpen the blades; never straighten or weld them. 1.
Inspecting and Sharpening the Cutting Unit Blade(s) Both cutting edges and the sail, which is the turned-up portion opposite of the cutting edge, contribute to a good quality of cut. Maintain sharp blades throughout the cutting season. Sharp blades create a clean cut without tearing or shredding the grass blades. Check the blades for any wear or damage. The sail lifts the grass up straight, thereby producing an even cut and gradually wears down during operation. 1.
Cab Maintenance Note: Remove the blades and sharpen them on a grinder. After sharpening the cutting edges, install the blade with the anti-scalp cup and blade bolt; refer to Removing and Installing the Cutting-Unit Blade(s) (page 70). Cleaning the Cab Important: Use care around the cab seals and Correcting a Cutting Unit Mismatch lights (Figure 92). If you are using a pressure washer, keep the washer wand at least 0.6 m (2 ft) away from the machine.
Cleaning the Cab Pre-Filter The purpose of the cab pre-filter is to prevent large debris, such as grass and leaves, from entering the cab filters. 1. Rotate the screen cover down. 2. Clean the filter with water. Note: Do not use a pressure washer. Important: If the filter has a hole, tear, or other damage, replace the filter. 3. Allow the pre-filter to dry before installing it into the machine. 4.
Storage Storage Safety • Shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait for all movement to stop before you leave the operator’s position. Allow the machine to cool before adjusting, servicing, cleaning, or storing it. • Do not store the machine or fuel container where there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light, such as on a water heater or other appliance. g032323 Figure 96 Right fan shown 1.
