Linking Up The Reel Drive Unit to the Reel
Machines are supplied with the reel drive motor under the table and a flexible drive which
can be attached to either end of the machine and do not have to be prepared before the
mower unit is placed on the table, as the complete drive unit can be moved to either side
of the table with a mower unit in place.
6.5.1 Select the attachment with which to drive the reel. If the reel sprocket, gear or pulley
is secured with a nut it may be easier to use a standard socket together with a 1/2”
square end driver. Ensure the nut is tight as the direction of rotation may tend to unscrew
it. Ensure that the drive shaft is through the flexible coupling/driver before setting the
machine on the table and that the whole unit is at the correct end of the table.
Alternatively it may be easier to drive directly onto the sprocket using one of the pin or
adjustable type sprocket drivers fitted to the plain drive rod.
6.5.2 When the cutting unit is in place and firmly fixed into the multifix brackets, or front roller
brackets, and the rear clamped with the radiused pressure bar, adjust the drive unit left or
right so that the appropriate drive rod will reach the end of the reel shaft. Tighten unit in
place
Adjust the height and position, forwards and backwards and up and down, of the cable
drive drive support so that the shaft is square with the driven end of the reel, and tighten
clamps to hold it in place.
The black lobed hand screw allows the drive head to be moved along the square support
shaft to adjust the height of the drive, while the 5/8” hex headed socket screw allows the
support shaft to be clamped at any desired angle, and also allows the whole assembly to
be moved left or right along the machine bed to engage in the drive mechanism on the
reel.
The drive head of the shaft can also be slid through it’s support for further adjustment or
final connection/ disconnection of drive.
6.5.3 Tighten the drive rod via the allen screw in the flexible coupling onto the flat of the drive
shaft.
