7.0 First installation
Standard the GT190 heads are delivered with a right-hand drive side. A
fitting kit will need to be mounted to the head to make it fit a certain brand
and type greensmower. Please find mounting instructions in the attached
instruction sheet or digital on www.maredo-bv.com/support
In some occasions a right-hand (RH) drive will have to be changed into a
left hand (LH) drive. To change drive side on the GT190 the complete main
shaft with gearbox will need to be taken out of the frame, be turned around
and re-mounted in the main frame (The side w all nuts/bolts will
have to be re-mounted on the other side as well).
Please note that the
gearbox itself will never have to be opened when changing the
drive side.
Remove all weights, bolts + nuts and
Re-mount them on the other side
The complete shaft with gearbox will have to be taken out of the frame.
Remove the 4 nuts + 2 bolts & nuts at the gearbox side and the 3 bolts which hold
the bearing. Remove the whole shaft + gearbox from the chassis, turn it 180 degrees around
and mount it back in the chassis. Carefully tighten all bolts and nuts one by one. Check if the
shaft and gearbox run smooth. If not, change the sequence of tightening.
NOTE
: This procedure works in case the standard symmetric blades are mounted. As these
blades can be used in to directions, the rotation direction doesn’t matter.
However when the (optional) carbide tipped blades are mounted
, the blades aren’t
symmetrical anymore. In case a GT190 heads must be rebuilt from RH to LH, the carbide
tipped blades must be mirrored one by one on the main shaft as well.
