Mounting the Hydraulic Motors
to the Cutting Units
1. Remove locknuts, bolts, shipping cover, and drive
plate shield (Fig. 9) from the cutting unit.

2. Discard shipping cover and install the drive plate
shield onto the reel drive motor flange (Fig. 10). Be
sure the widest portion of the shield is at the top.

Note: Check to see that motor pulley set screws are tight
on motor shaft before installing motor onto cutting unit
(Fig. 11).

3. Insert the reel drive motor pulley through the housing
and slip the cutting unit drive belt over the pulley
(Fig. 11).

4. Insert the 2 reel drive motor mounting bolts (heads on
inside of the drive housing—flat washer on top bolt)
through the reel motor flange holes. Thread the
locknuts onto the bolts. Rotate reel motor upward in
the slotted hole in the housing to tension the drive belt
and tighten the fasteners (Fig. 12) to approx. 25 ft. lb.
(34 N m).
Note: Proper belt tension is achieved when belt deflects
approximately 1/8 in. (3 mm) at mid-point when 7 lb. of
force is applied. (Fig. 12).

Important
Rotate motors by hand only. Never place a
bar between hose fittings on hydraulic motors—motor
damage may result.
5. Install the gasket and drive housing cover after making
sure the ends of the gasket are at the bottom of the
housing to allow for drainage.
Important
When hydraulic motors have been mounted
to the cutting units, make sure hydraulic hoses lay flat and
do not contact the frame of the machine when the cutting
units are in the raised position. There should also be
sufficient slack so hoses are above and not in contact with
the floatation kit. If hoses appear twisted once the
