Inspection
After the cutting unit is unboxed, inspect the following:
1.
Check each end of the reel for grease. Grease should be
visibly evident in the reel bearings and internal splines
of the reel shaft.
2.
Ensure that all nuts and bolts are securely tightened.
3.
Make sure the carrier frame suspension operates freely
and does not bind when moved back and forth.
