Deck Clutch Operation
Before beginning operation, check to make sure the deck
clutch switch is engaging and disengaging the blades properly.
To check the deck clutch switch:
1.
Start the engine and engage the deck clutch.
2.
With the deck clutch switch up (clutch engaged) and
the engine running, listen to confirm that the mower
blades are rotating.
3.
Now, push the deck clutch switch down (clutch disen-
gaged), and with the engine running, listen to confirm
that the blades have stopped rotating.
4.
If the mower blades continue to rotate with the deck
clutch switch down, discontinue operation immedi-
ately and contact your Hustler
®
Dealer.
Follow these procedures to maximize clutch life.
1. Engage the clutch
only when the throttle is set at
approximately
2/3 throttle
and there is
no load
on the
blades. After clutch engagement, advance the engine
throttle to full rpm.
Engaging the deck clutch at high engine rpm or when
under heavy load (in tall grass, for example) can cause
belts and/or electric clutch to slip, resulting in premature
wear or possible damage.
2. Disengage the clutch
only when the throttle is set at
less than 1/2 throttle.
Never disengage the clutch with the engine running at
high rpm. Setting the throttle to less than 1/2 throttle
when disengaging the clutch will help extend clutch life.
Warranty will not be allowed
for deck clutches that fail due
to improper engagement and disengagement practices.
Deck Cutting Height Adjustment
Deck height is adjustable in 6.4 mm increments.
To adjust the cutting height, pull rearward on the deck lift
lever to raise the deck and then place the height adjusting
stop into the desired cutting height hole. Slowly release the
deck lift lever until the height adjusting stop is resting
against the bracket.
Move the deck lift lever to the transport position slot when
the unit is in the transport mode. Figure 3-13.
Anti-Scalp Wheels
Anti-scalp wheels are standard on some TrimStar
®
mow-
ers. These anti-scalp wheels are designed to minimize scalp-
ing when mowing on rough, uneven terrain.
After setting the cutting height, adjust the anti-scalp
wheels so they extend below the deck but
do not contact the
ground.
They should always be at least 6.35 mm to 19.05 mm
below the deck. With the unit sitting on a flat level surface,
the wheel position can be adjusted up or down as needed
from 19.05 mm to 44.45 mm below the blade surface. Move
the wheels up or down, in 12.70 mm increments, using the
Make sure that the area around and under the deck
is clear and that there are no bystanders in the
immediate area before proceeding.
