Toro 04260, Installation Instructions Manual

Page: 6 / 16

A. Install the belt-drive assembly using the
previously removed bolts, and ensure that
the side plate rotates freely (
Figure 6 ).
B. Install the lower pulley onto the reel drive
shaft, securing it with 2 set screws onto the
key on the shaft (
Figure 5 ).
C. Torque the set screws to 7 to 7.5 N·m (60
to 65 in-lb).
D. Install the drive belt and tension it as
described in the traction unit
Operator’s
Manual .
13. Secure the groomer drive gear to the reel shaft
on the right side of the reel (
Figure 10 ), and
torque to 170 N·m (125 ft-lb).
Note:
The use of an impact gun is not enough
to ensure proper installation. Failing to properly
torque the drive pulley can result in the assembly
unscrewing itself during operation.
14. Install and secure the idler gears ( Figure 10 ) and
torque the capscrews to 13.5 N·m (120 in-lb).
15. Install the idler tension spring ( Figure 12 ).

16. With the idler gear engaged, use a spark plug
gapping tool to check that there is a 0.38 to 0.45
mm (0.015 to 0.018 inch) gap between the driver
and fixed idler gear (
Figure 12 ).
Note:
You can adjust the gap by rotating the
eccentric stop for the idler gear.

height-of-cut arm assembly (
Figure 13 ).
4. Install the right adjuster-arm assembly to the
cutting unit side plate using a plow bolt, nut, and
special washer (
Figure 13 ).
Note:
Make sure that the rod end of the
height-of-cut arm assembly slides into the
bushing in the hole in the groomer drive
assembly.
5. Secure the adjuster-arm assembly rod end to
the groomer drive assembly with the locknut
(
Figure 13 ).
Note:
Do not overtighten the locknut. The
washer should be compressed but the arm must
be free to pivot.
