1. Slide back to mount
6. Mount the baskets on the pull frames, loosen the jam
nuts on the pull arms, and adjust the ball sockets until
there is 1/4 to 1/2 in. (6.4 to 12.7 mm) clearance
between the lip of the basket and the reel blades
(Fig. 8).
Note: This prevents the basket from tipping the cutting
unit forward, causing the hoop to come off of the lift
arm while in the mowing operation.
Note: Be sure the basket lips are equidistant from the
reel blades across each reel. If the basket is too close to
the reel, it is possible for the reel to contact the basket
when the cutting unit is raised off of the ground.

For Cutting Unit Models 04470, 04471,
04472, and 04473
Note: When sharpening, setting the height-of-cut or
performing other maintenance procedures on the cutting
units, store the cutting unit reel motors in the support tubes
on the front of the frame to prevent damage to the hoses.
1. Remove the cutting units from the cartons. Assemble
and adjust them per the cutting unit Operator's Manual.
Use the gauge bar from the loose parts kit to adjust the
height of cut.
2. Mount a washer and ball stud to each end of the front
roller on the cutting units (Fig. 9).

3. Slide the cutting unit under the pull frame while
hooking the lift roller onto the lift arm (Fig. 9).
4. Slide the sleeve back on the ball joint and rotate the pull
arm down so the socket fits over the ball stud. Release
the sleeve so it slides over the stud and locks the
assemblies together (Fig. 9).
5. Mount the baskets on the pull frames, loosen the jam
nuts on the pull arms, and adjust the ball sockets until
there is 1/4 to 1/2 in. (6.4 to 12.7 mm) clearance
between the lip of the basket and the reel blades or the
front shield.
Note: This prevents the basket from tipping the cutting
unit forward, causing the lift roller to come off of the
lift arm while in the mowing operation.
Be sure the basket lips are equidistant from the reel
blades all across each reel. If the basket is too close to
the reel, it is possible for the reel to contact the basket
when the cutting unit is raised off of the ground.
