ADJUSTMENTS
The mower should be operated at an acceptable height to conduct precise work. To save power
and reduce the wear of the machine, you must set the mowing height and the rear roller height
properly.
6.1
Mowing height adjustment:
◼
Raise and support the mower with
suitable wooden blocks beside the
skids.
◼
Untighten both nuts (1) and (2).
◼
Remove bolt (2) and move the skid (3)
to the desired position for the mowing
height (1, 2, 3, or 4
”).
◼
Fit bolt (2) and tighten the nut.
◼
Tighten nut (1).
◼
Repeat this action for the second skid
at the other side of the mower.
◼
Ensure the cutting height is set equally
on both sides.

Driving belts tension check and adjustment
6.2.1
Drive belts tension check
It is essential for both optimal machine
performance and long-lasting belt lifetime
that the belts are correctly tensioned at all
times.
◼
After an initial first 2 hours of work,
check belt tension.
◼
The belt tension is correct when a
force of 10 kg exerted on one belt at
the mid-point between the upper and
lower pulleys deviates the belts by 15
mm.
◼
Check the tightening of all taper lock
Allen bolts in the middle of the pulleys.
If the belts require tensioning, follow the
procedure stated below.
