Restraining the Reel
WARNING
The cutting reel blades are sharp and capable
of amputating hands and feet.
• Keep your hands and feet outside of the
reel.
• Ensure that the reel is restrained before
servicing it.
Restraining the Reel for Removing
Threaded Inserts
1.
Loosen the shield-bolt on the left side of the
cutting unit and raise the rear shield
2.
Insert a long-handled pry bar (recommended 3/8
x 12 inches with a screwdriver handle) through
the back of the cutting reel, closest to the side of
the cutting unit that you will be torquing
42).
3.
Place the pry bar against the weld side of the
reel support plate
Note:
Insert the pry bar between the top of the
reel shaft and the backs of 2 reel blades so that
the reel will not move.
Important:
Do not contact the cutting edge
of any blades with the pry bar; this may
damage the cutting edge and/or cause a high
blade.
Important:
The insert on the left side of
the cutting unit has left-hand threads. The
insert on the right side of the cutting unit has
right-hand threads.
