Securing the Cutting Units to
the Lift Arms
1. Remove three metric bolts from each of the lift arms
(Fig. 5).
Note: The smaller diameter bolt goes through both the
pivot arm and the lift arm. Keep these bolts separate.
2. With the parking brake on, start the traction unit and
adjust the engine to half throttle. Be sure to release the
lift arm lock lever for the #1, #2 and #3 cutting units
and put the reel lift control for the #1, #2 and #3
cutting units in the lower position (Fig. 6). Release the
lever and let it return to the neutral position.
