Reel Assembly Installation - Toro Reelmaster 5010- H Service Manual

Reel Assembly Installation (Fig. 28)
1. Thoroughly clean side plates and other cutting unit
components. Inspect side plates for wear or damage
and replace if needed.
CAUTION
Contact with the reel, bedknife or other cutting
unit parts can result in personal injury. Use
heavy gloves when installing the cutting reel.
2. Position the cutting unit on a flat work area. The roll-
ers, bedbar, carrier frame and cutting unit frame should
be attached to RH side plate.
3. Apply a thin coat of antiseize lubricant to outside of
bearings on cutting reel.
4. Carefully slide the cutting reel assembly into the RH
side plate. Make sure that bearing is fully seated into
side plate.
5. Slide the LH side plate onto the cutting reel assem-
bly, front roller and rear roller. Make sure that reel end
in RH side plate does not shift in position.
6. Install shoulder bolts (item 8) and flange nuts (item
24) that secure the LH side plate to the cutting unit
frame. Torque the shoulder bolts from 27 to 33 ft-lbs (37
to 44 N- m).
7. Secure carrier frame to LH side plate:
A. For 7" cutting unit (Fig. 29), apply Loctite #242 (or
equivalent) to threads of flange head screw that se-
cures support tube, frame spacer, removed wash-
er(s) and carrier frame to LH side plate. Install screw
and torque screw from 27 to 33 ft-lbs (37 to 44
N- m).
B. For 5" cutting unit (Fig. 30), secure carrier frame,
frame spacer and removed washer(s) to LH side
plate with flange head screw and flange nut. Torque
screw from 27 to 33 ft-lbs (37 to 44 N- m).
C. After tightening flange head screw, check the
clearance between the carrier frame and side plate.
If clearance is more than 0.065" (1.7 mm), remove
flange head screw and position additional washer(s)
between carrier frame and side plate so that clear-
ance is less than 0.065" (1.7 mm). Make sure that the
carrier frame pivots freely after assembly.

ting reel is controlled by the precision machined frame
and side plates of the cutting unit. If necessary, the cut-
ting unit side plates can be loosened and a slight adjust-
ment can be made to parallel the rear roller with the
cutting reel (see Leveling Rear Roller in the Set- Up and
Adjustments section of this Chapter).
