1. Removing the mower
Warning
●
Install or remove the mower on a flat and
stable surface. In the night time, illuminate
properly. Otherwise, an accident may result.
●
When installing or removing the mower by
moving the machine, do not permit a person
to be around the machine or to get between
the machine and mower. Otherwise, injuries
may result.
(1) Lower the mower unit.
(2) Loosen the bolt tightening the gear motor
and remove the gear motor.
(3) Pull out the L-shaped pin from the lowering
arm.
(4) Remove the fixing bolt above the draw arm
and remove the mower unit.
●
Install the mower in the reverse order to that
described above.
[Caution for handling]
●
Install the gear motor taking care so that the
movement of the rotary blade does not
become heavy.
2. Adjusting the cutting quality
●
In order to prevent accidents by the rotary
blades during the transportation, a wide
interval is provided between the rotary blades
and lower blade at the time of shipment. The
interval should be adjusted before starting the
cutting operation.
●
If the cutting quality deteriorates during
operation, the rotary blades should be ground
and the interval between the rotary blades
and lower blade should be adjusted.
Danger
●
When adjusting, be sure to stop the engine
and adjust after the cutting blades stop
rotating.
●
To rotate the rotary blades, be sure to use the
blade aligning fixture.
●
Do not touch the rotary blades directly by
hand.
(1) Insert a piece of newspaper torn into a strip
between the rotary blades and lower blade
at the center, and right and left sides of the
rotary blades, turn the rotary blades in the
direction of the lower blade using the blade
aligning fixture and test the cutting quality.
●
If the interval is too long, adjust in the
following procedure.
