Owner Service 13 - Woods 7000, 7192, 7194, 7195, 7200, 7205 Manual

The information in this section is written for operators
who possess basic mechanical skills. If you need
help, your dealer has trained service technicians
available. For your protection, read and follow the
safety information in this manual.
Before working underneath, read Operator's
Manual and Blocking Method section. Disconnect
driveline, raise mower, install transport lock,
securely block up all corners, and check stability.
Secure blocking prevents equipment from drop-
ping due to hydraulic leak down, hydraulic sys-
tem failures, or mechanical component failures.
Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
Blocking Method
Before working underneath, read Operator's
Manual and Blocking Method section Disconnect
driveline, raise mower, install transport lock,
securely block up all corners, and check stability.
Secure blocking prevents equipment from drop-
ping due to hydraulic leak down, hydraulic sys-
tem failures, or mechanical component failures.
1. Do not work underneath mower unless it is prop-
erly attached to the tractor and blocked securely.
When properly attached, the unit will be anchored to
minimize front-to-rear movement.
2. Raise mower completely, set tractor brakes, turn
engine off, remove key, block tractor wheels front and
rear.
3. Install transport lock (see Transport Lock Opera-
tion, page 9).
4. Disconnect mower driveline from tractor PTO.

CAUTION
Always wear relatively tight and belted cloth-
ing to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and
head.
Figure 5 Block Location
NOTE: When blocking, you must consider overall sta-
bility of the unit. Just blocking under the unit will not
ensure your safety. The working surface must be level
and solid to support the loaded weight of the blocks.
Test blocking stability before working under any por-
tion of the mower.
