2. Check to make sure that the clearance between each lift
arm and stop bolt is 0.005–0.040 in. (0.13–1.02 mm)
(Fig. 6). If the clearance is not in this range, adjust the
stop bolts to attain clearance.

3. Start the engine, raise the decks, and check to make sure
that the clearance between the wear strap on the top of
the rear cutting unit wear bar and the bumper strap is
0.02–0.10 in. (0.51–2.54 mm) (Fig. 8). If the clearance
is not in this range, adjust the rear cylinder to attain
clearance. To adjust the cylinder, lower the cutting units
and back off the jam nut on the cylinder (Fig. 9). Grasp
the cylinder rod close to the nut with a pliers and rag
and rotate the rod. Raise the cutting units and check the
clearance. Repeat the procedure if required. Tighten the
clevis jam nut.
Note: If the rear lift arm "clunks" during transport,
clearance can be reduced.

Rear Ballast
The Groundsmaster 3505 Traction unit with 27" Rotary
Cutting decks conforms to the B71.4-2004 standard when
67 lb. of calcium chloride ballast is added to the rear wheel
and weight, part no. 104–3965 is added to the rear fork.
Important
If a puncture occurs in a tire with calcium
chloride, remove the machine from the turf as quickly as
possible. To prevent possible damage to the turf,
immediately soak the affected area with water.
