Hydraulic Transport Locks, Optional
Refer to Figure 2-5:
With transport locking cylinder (#6) fully retracted,
transport locks (#1) should be fully seated in tool bar
locking lugs (#2) with slight slack in aircraft cables (#5). If
needed, shorten or lengthen cables (#5) as follows:
1. Fully retract deck lifting cylinders (#7) and transport
lock cylinder (#6).
2. Check slack in all three aircraft cables (#5):
a. They should have slight slack and not be tight.
b. They should not be too slack or cables (#5) will not
be able to pull transport locks (#1) out of tool bar
locking lugs (#2).
NOTE:
Figure 3-5 is shown with mower decks down
for clarity. Mower decks will need to be folded up
and locked in the transport locks to check for
adjustment of transport locks.
3. If needed, adjust aircraft cables (#5) as follows:
a. Loosen cable clamps (#4A & #4B), and pull or let
out aircraft cable (#5) to create a slight slack in
cable.
b. Use cable clamp (#4A) closest to the spring to
create a loop about 1 1/4" (3 cm) in diameter. The
loop should be big enough to allow rotation
around the spring but small enough not to come
off the washers.
c. Tighten cable clamp (#4A).
d. Secure excess cable with remaining clamp (#4B)
and then tighten clamp (#4B).
