Adjusting the Traction Control

If the traction control does not engage or it slips during
operation, an adjustment is required.
1. Move the traction control to the Disengaged position.
2. Loosen the retainer securing the V-belt cover and pivot
the cover open (Figure
3. To increase the cable tension, loosen the front cable
jam nut and tighten the back cable jam nut

engage the traction control. Measure the force at the
control knob.

Cutting Unit Maintenance

Leveling the Rear Drum to the
Reel
1. Position the machine on a flat, level surface, preferably
a precision steel work plate.
2. Place a 0.6 x 2.5 cm (1/4 x 1 inch) flat steel strip,
approximately 73.6 cm (29 inches) long, under the reel
blades and against the front edge of the bedknife to
prevent the bedbar from resting on the work surface.
3. Raise the front roller so only the rear drum and reel are
on the surface.
4. Firmly press down on the machine above the reel so
all reel blades contact the steel strip.
5. While pressing down on the reel, slide a feeler gauge
under one end of the drum, then check the other end
of the drum.
If there is a gap between the drum and the work surface,
greater than .025 cm (0.010 inch), on either end, adjust
the drum (proceed to step 6). If the gap is less than
.025 cm (0.010 inch) no adjustment is required.
6. Remove the rear belt cover from the right side of the
machine (Figure

7. Rotate the driven pulley until the holes align with the 4
roller bearing flange screws
