REEL MOWER OPERATOR'S MANUAL
The unit has been carefully assembled with numerous
adjustments and quality inspections performed by a
team of trained factory technicians who take great pride
in their work. To facilitate packaging and shipment, there
are components that need to be installed.
Note: It is recommended that this unit be set up and
checked by an Authorized Dealer.
Tools Required
- 2 x 1/2" wrenches / 1 x 7/16" wrench
- Phillips head screwdriver - Small pliers
1. Fasten the upper and lower handles together with
four 5/16"-24
bolts (#20),
flat washers
(#30) and lock
nuts (#21).
Note the
washers (#30)
are placed on
the bolts
(#20) before
they are
installed.
2. Attach the
roller lift rod
(#15) to the toggle (#22) using the cotter pin (#3).
3. Join the upper and lower clutch engagement rods
together with the coupling / long nut (#18) and the
lock nuts. First thread one nut to the threaded portion
of the upper rod, and
then thread the other
nut to the lower rod.
Next, thread the
coupling onto the
upper and lower rods
so the amount of
threads showing on
each side is about the
same. Tighten the
lock nuts against the
coupling. Insert the
upper rod into the
handle and secure
with the pin. You may
need to adjust the
position of coupling in
order to minimize
flexing of the rods as you engage / disengage the
clutch. Note: The clutch engagement handle may
be stiff at first. It will wear in after some use.
