Inspecting the Reel Assembly (continued)
Note:
The reel nut on the left end of the cutting reel has a black finish and
has left-hand threads. The left end of the cutting reel shaft is identified with a
groove cut just inside of the left-most reel spider. Tighten the reel nuts to the
specified torque once the cutting reel is installed in the cutting unit.
6. Inspect the LH reel nut and spline adapter:
A. Ensure that the spline adapter is not loose or damaged.
Note:
The spline adapter was installed at the factory with high strength
thread locking compound. Heat the LH reel nut prior to removing the
spline adapter.
B. If removing the spline adapter is necessary, use a reel nut from a current
riding Greensmaster cutting unit as a tool; refer to
(page 2–14)

C. Clean and inspect the spline adapter threads and the internal threads of
the LH reel nut. Replace the spline adapter or LH reel nut if necessary.
IMPORTANT
Use high strength thread locking compound (Loctite 271 or
equivalent) OR factory applied thread locking compound
(patch lock) to lock the spline adapter in place. Combining the
two compounds will not hold the spline adapter in position
sufficiently.
D.
If installing a used spline adapter:
Remove any residual thread locking
compound from the spline adapter threads and the internal threads of
the LH reel nut. Apply a liberal amount of high strength thread locking
compound (Loctite 271 or equivalent) to the threads of the spline adapter
and the internal threads of the LH reel nut prior to installation.
If installing a new spline adapter without factory applied thread
locking compound (patch lock):
Remove any residual thread locking
compound from the internal threads of the LH reel nut. Apply a liberal
amount of high strength thread locking compound (Loctite 271 or
