Pre Maintenance

Important: The fasteners on the covers of this
machine are designed to remain on the cover after
removal. Loosen all of the fasteners on each cover a
few turns so that the cover is loose but still attached,
then go back and loosen them until the cover
comes free. This will prevent you from accidentally
stripping the bolts free of the retainers.
Separating the Cutting Unit
from the Traction Unit
1. Position the machine on level surface, lower the
cutting unit to the floor, move the lift lever to the
Float position, shut the engine off, and engage the
parking brake.
2. Remove the bolt and washer mounted to the top of
each height of cut rod (Figure 23).
