2. Check the balance of the blade. If the blades are out
of balance, vibration and premature wear can occur.
The cutter blades should be balanced to 1-1/2 oz-in.
See your authorized Scag dealer for blade balancing
or special tools, if you choose to balance your own
blades.
C. BLADE REPLACEMENT
WARNING
Always wear proper hand and eye protection when
working with cutter blades.
1. Remove the ignition key before replacing the blades.
2. Remove the belt cover.
3. Secure the cutter blades to prevent them from
rotating, (use the optional Blade Buddy tool P/N
9212, to assist in securing the cutter blades), remove
the blade attaching bolt. Remove the cutter blade,
bolt, lockwasher and flatwasher from the spindle
shaft. See Figure 7-5.
- NOTE -
Be sure that the blade is installed with the lift wing
towards the top of the cutter deck.
CAUTION
Inspect the cutter blade spacer(s) and washer
for wear and/or cupping. Replace the worn parts.
Worn spacer(s) and/or washer will not allow
proper tightening of the cutter blade and can lead
to cutter blade failure, personal injury or property
damage.
4. Install the cutter blade on to the cutter spindle shaft.
Secure the blades from rotating and torque to
75 ft/lbs. See Figure 7-5.
