Cutting Unit Installation - Toro Reelmaster 6500–D Service Manual

Cutting Unit Installation

Cutting unit models 03857, 03858, and 03859 can be
installed at any of the five mounting locations on the trac-
tion unit. Figure 1 shows the orientation of the hydraulic
drive motor for each of the five locations. For any of the
locations requiring the motor to be mounted on the right
end of the cutting unit, install a counter weight on the left
end of the cutting unit. For the locations requiring the
motor to be mounted on the left end, install a counter
weight on the right end of the cutting unit.
Two of the counter weights provided with the tractor in-
clude reel speed sensor assemblies. These need to be
installed on cutting units to be mounted in the front cen-
ter and left rear positions on the tractor.
Note: Counter weight mounting capscrews are shipped
installed on the right bearing housing of the cutting units.
The capscrews on left bearing housing are to be used
for securing the hydraulic motor.
1. Remove cutting units from cartons. Assemble and ad-
just per Cutting Unit Operator's Manual.
2. Remove protective plugs from each end of cutting
unit.
3. Lubricate and install a large O–ring into bearing hous-
ing groove on each end of cutting unit (Fig. 31 & 33).
Note: Before installing cutting unit motors or counter-
weights with speed sensors, lubricate internal splines of
cutting unit reels shafts with grease.
4. Install a counter weight onto appropriate end of each
cutting unit with capscrews provided (Fig. 31).
5. Thoroughly grease the cutting unit reel bearings prior
to installation on the traction unit. Grease should be evi-
dent at the inboard reel seals. Refer to Cutting Unit Op-
erator's Manual for greasing procedure.
