MAINTENANCE
NOTE
from cutting, the front part should always be 5 -
6 mm lower than the rear.
– Put the machine onto a flat surface and check
the tyre pressures;
– put 26 mm blocks (1) under the front edge of
the deck and 32 mm blocks (2) under the rear
edge, and thenput the lifting lever into position
«1»;
– loosen the nuts (3), the screws (5) and the lock-
nuts (4 – 6) on both the right and left side, so
that the deck is resting firmly on the blocks;
– push the two connecting rods (7) to the back
and screw down the two nuts (3) on each rod
until the front part of the deck just begins to rise
both at the right and the left, and then tighten
the relevant locknuts (4);
– turn both the rear screws (5) until the rear of the
deck begins to rise both at the right and the left,
and then tighten the relevant locknuts (6).
If you are unable to get the cutting deck adjusted properly, consult your Dealer.
6.3.3 A
DJUSTMENT TO THE ENGAGEMENT AND BRAKE OF THE BLADES
When the lever to disengage the blades is
operated, this also brings the blade brake
into operation for stopping the blades
within few seconds.
A badly functioning blade brake is usually
due to wear in the brake lining (2) and this
will need to be changed by your Dealer.
A stretched cable and changes in the
length of the belt can impair the blades'
engagement or rotation.
To compensate this, turn the adjusting nut (1) till the correct spring length is
achieved (measured from the outer ends of the spring with the blades engaged).
