Cutting Deck: Adjustments
Do not install or work on the cutting decks or lift arms with the
engine running.
Always shut off the engine and remove the key from the key switch
before working on the cutting decks or lift arms.
Refer to the Cutting Deck Operator's Manual for adjustment procedures of the
cutting decks on the Groundsmaster 4300-D machine.
The blades of the cutting decks should come to a complete stop in less than 5
seconds after you disengage the PTO switch.
Note: When checking the blade stopping time, ensure that the decks are
lowered onto a clean section of turf or hard surface to prevent dust and unwanted
material.
To check the blade stopping time, instruct a second person to stay away from the
machine at least 20 feet and monitor the blade on 1 of the cutting decks. When
the machine operator disengage the cutting deck, record the time that it takes for
the cutting deck blade to come to a complete stop. If this time is more than 7
seconds, adjust the deck control manifold braking valve (RV).
Refer to specific Cutting Deck Operator's Manual for cutting deck removal and
installation procedure.
