6.5.4
Moving the flexible Shaft
There is a layshaft socket at both ends of the
machine into which the flexible drive can be
engaged as required. The other end of the
flexible shaft can be disconnected if required
but this would not generally be necessary as the
bracket and shaft would normally be moved as
an assembly.
The flexible drive shaft can be detached
from its socket on the end of the machine by
pulling sharply on the shaft, to release it from
a spring loaded ball detent. (Earlier units by
first removing the spring retainer (R-pin)), and
withdrawing the complete shaft. When replacing
the shaft, ensure that it is properly engaged
in the layshaft socket (and if appropriate, the
spring retainer securely replaced).
By loosening the socket screw and allowing
the clamp nut, under the table, to twist through
approximately 90 degrees, the whole assembly
can be lifted clear of the table, and moved to the
other side of the mower unit if required.

Applying the Cut
Before starting any of the motors it is necessary to bring the grinding wheel into its
approximate cutting position.
6.6.1 With the stone positioned at the left hand end of the reel, place the left hand on the left
hand control wheel and the right hand on the reel, wind the control wheel clockwise while
slowly rotating the reel until the reel gently rides across the grinding wheel.
6.6.2 Unwind a complete turn to move the stone away from the reel.
6.6.3 Move the grinding wheel to the right hand end of the reel and, using the right hand on the
right control wheel and the left hand on the reel, raise the shaft until the reel again can be
gently rotated against the top of the grinding wheel.
6.6.4 Unwind half a turn.
6.6.5 Go back to the left hand end and repeat the process but this time, after contact has been
made, unwind only sufficiently to release the contact.
6.6.6 Go back to the right hand end and repeat the process and again release the contact only
slightly.
NOTE
It is important that the grinding wheel should clear the highest blade along the full length of
the reel before grinding commences.
