Blade Sharpening continued
Ensure that the blade is balanced. Use a screwdriver
with a round shaft to support the blade through
its centre hole. Hold the blade horizontal and then
release. A balanced blade will remain horizontal.
Figure 26.
If the blade is not balanced the heavy end will rotate
downwards. Sharpen the heavy end until the blade
is correctly balanced. Figure 27.
Lubricating the Machine

Adjusting the Self-Propel Lever (CODE377A
only)
At any time the operator feels that the mower is
loosing drive, check the following.
•
Stop the motor.
•
Pull the machine backwards at the same time
progressively engage the clutch lever until the
rear rollers lock, at this point the clutch lever
should be 60 mm from the handlebar.
•
If the distance between the clutch lever and
handlebar is less than 60 mm regulate the
engagement position with the black plastic cable
adjuster to regain the 60 mm distance.
Note this is a temporary adjustment and at the
nearest opportunity a service should be carried out
to ensure the spring on the clutch cable attached to
the gearbox clutch is set correctly. This adjustment
should be done using the metal adjuster at the
speed control lever, with the plastic adjuster reset
fully wound in. When the spring is set tighten the
inner lock nut to secure in position. Figure 29.
With the clutch lever fully engaged, the cable should
be adjusted to give a spring extension of 10 mm.
