1. Spline insert (LH)
2. Reel shaft
4. Loosen the spline inserts:
A. Tip the cutting unit to access the bottom of the reel.
B. Insert a long-handled pry bar (3/8 x 12 inch with screwdriver handle
recommended) through the bottom of the cutting unit. The pry bar should
pass between the top of the reel shaft and the backs of the reel blades so
that the reel will not move.
To avoid grinding the reel, do not contact the cutting edge of
any blade with the pry bar as this may damage the cutting edge
and/or cause a high blade.
C. Move the pry bar against the weld side of the reel support plate closest to
the spline insert being loosened. Use correct spline insert tool (refer to
Special Tools (page
