3-Speed gearbox model
WARNING! Serious injury can occur to the
!
operator or people in the work area if the
rotational speed (n/min) of the diamond
blade exceeds the maximum speed (n/min)
marked on the diamond blade.
CAUTION! Never shift the gears with engine
!
running. Gearbox damage could occur.
Never shift gears prior checking the blade
drive configuration.
Shifting gears
WARNING! After shifting gear, hand tight
!
knob and tighten jam nut or the gearbox
could be damaged.
The 3-speed gearbox has three speeds and two neutral
positions available. This gearbox can be shifted into neutral if
the blade rotation needs to be eliminated while the engine is
running. If the machine is equipped with the optional blade
clutch the blade clutch can be disengaged to eliminate blade
rotation while the engine is running.
• Set the Engine start switch to STOP position. Always turn
engine OFF before shifting gears.
• Verify that pulley size, flange size and blade shaft speed
are correct for the blade size mounted on the machine.
• Loosen jam nut. Turn knob two turns.
• Move Gearbox shift lever to required gear. If gearbox
seems hard to shift, a slight movement of the blade shaft
may ease movement of gearbox shift lever into proper
gear.

• Hand tight knob. Tighten jam nut (30 ft-Ib/40 Nm).
A machine that is factory equipped with a 3-speed gearbox is
designed to minimize the necessary adjustments for blade
size changes. However it will require some adjustments. The
machine is configured from factory to operate with a specified
range of blade sizes inside the factory installed blade guard.
OPERATING
There are 4 possible machine drive configurations on these
machines:
• 20-36, for 20" to 36" (500 to 900mm) blades
• 26-42, for 26" to 42" (650 to 1000mm) blades
• 750-1200, for 750-1200mm (30" to 48") blades
• 900-1500, for 900-1500mm (36" to 60") blades
If a blade size must be changed to another size, within the
current configuration, then only the gears need to be shifted.
If a blade size must be changed to another, outside the
current configuration, then the blade drive configuration must
be changed.
• Enter gearbox and blade information inside Setup menu 2
on the display to see the specifications for wanted
configuration.
