6.6 REPLACEMENT OF THE SUPPORT
AND SHAFT OF THE BLADE
Remove the cutting deck [see 5.8].
NOTE
This operation is not strictly necessary since, with a
little practice and experience, it is possible to di -
smantle the deck supports without removing the deck.
If not removed it would be best to put the deck into a
middle position for easy access both a bo ve and be-
low.
Put the blade engagement lever into the engaged po -
sition to free the brake (1), or manually move the
brake (1) away and dismantle the pulley (2) from the
blade shaft, attached by the screw (3).
Dismantle the blade [see 4.9] and take out
the hub.
Dismantle the flanged support (4) by unscrewing the
four fixing screws (5).
The entire support (4), including shafts and bea -
rings, is a spare part available as single assembly
unit.
If you should want to just replace the shaft or bear-
ings, remove the key (6) and hit the shaft with a plas-
tic mallet on the pulley side in order to remove the
shaft together with the lower bearing (7).
After having removed the Sieger ring (8), the dust co -
ver (9) and the key (6), the bearing (7) splined on to
the shaft can be removed using a normal extractor,
taking care to close up the threaded hole (11) with a
screw to prevent the point of the extractor from dam-
aging the thread.
The second bearing still in place must be removed by
hitting it from the inside of the flange using a
12 ÷ 15 mm diameter round bar (12).
On reassembling, first put the shaft into the hole of the
lower bearing and insert this into the support.
