ADJUST DECK BELT TENSION
The deck spring tension is critical. If the tension is too
high, premature failure of the deck belt and blade
spindles can occur. If the tension is too low, the belt can
"jump off" or slip on the pulleys. This results in reduced
cut quality and early belt failure.
Spring tension adjustments can be made by using a 9/16”
wrench to adjust the two jam nuts, shown in Fig. 39. Belt
tension should be 70-75 lbs. with the deck at its lowest
cutting height. When tensioning a new belt recheck belt
tension after 1/2 hour of cutting time.
Use a belt tension gauge to ensure the proper tension.
Your dealer or service center will have a belt tension
gauge or you can purchase one through the Bad Boy
Mowers parts department at 866-622-3269
(Part Number 041-9999-00).
BLADE SHARPENING
The blade on the top (Fig. 41) was utilized long after
replacement was required. In addition to a decline in cut
quality, failure to replace a worn or damaged blade
creates a major safety hazard. Bad Boy recommends that
blade sharpening be performed by a professional.
