Reel Rotation Lever
Caution
The reel rotation lever must be shifted to an
appropriate position just before you start
cutting work or lapping. In cases other than
those cases, it must be returned to the
neutral position.
The reel rotation lever is located on the right
side of the driver's seat and operates rotation of
the reel cutters (cutting cylinders) of the mower
units.
If you shift the reel rotation lever to the
"FORWARD" position, the reel cutters (cutting
cylinders) on all mower units will rotate forward
for cutting work. If you shift the reel rotation
lever to "REVERSE," the reel cutters (cutting
cylinders) will rotate in reverse for lapping.

Anti-reverse Reel Rotation Stopper
Caution
Before you start cutting work, make sure that
the stopper knob is tightened.
The anti-reverse reel rotation stopper is located
on the right side of the driver's seat. It prevents
the reel cutters (cutting cylinders) from rotating
in reverse during cutting work.
Except for lapping operations, be sure to shift
the stopper knob to the "FOR MOWING"
position, then tighten the knob.

is used during cutting and lapping.
