washer outside each of the nylon washers (Figure 27).
Torque bedbar bolts to 27-33 (37-45 N-m). Tighten
the locknuts equally, on each side, until the outer steel
washers cannot be rotated by hand. Then, loosen the
lock nuts until the outer steel washers just rotate by
hand, yet the bedbar end play is removed.
Note: Overtightening the lock nuts can deflect the side
plates and bedbar which can affect the reel/bedknife
contact.
Note: The washers on the inside may have a gap.
3. Tighten spring tension nut until spring is collapsed,
then back off 1/2 turn (Figure 28).
Note: Do not overtighten as damage to the spring
may occur.
