Matching Height Of Cut Between Cutting
Units
1. Position blade side to side on outside spindle
of both side cutting units. Measure from the
floor to the tip of the cutting edge on both
units and compare. These numbers should be
within 1/8 inch (3 mm) of each other. Make
no adjustment at this time.
2. Position blade side to side on inside spindle
of side cutting unit and corresponding outside
spindle of front cutting unit. Measure from the
floor to the tip of the cutting edge on inside
edge of side cutting unit to corresponding
outside edge of front cutting unit and compare.
The side cutting unit measurement should be
approximately 3/8 inch less than the front
cutting unit measurement to be correct. When
proper machine counterbalance is applied to
the side cutting units the inside edge will lift up
approximately 3/8 inch (10 mm).
Note: All three side cutting units castor
wheels should remain on the ground with
counterbalance applied.
Note: If adjustments need to be made to
match the cut between the front and side
cutting units, make the adjustments to the side
cutting units only.
3. If the inside edge of the side cutting unit is
too high relative to the outside edge of the
front cutting unit, remove one 1/8 inch shim
from the bottom of the front inside castor arm
on the side cutting unit (Figure 27). Recheck
measurement between outside edges of both
side cutting units and inside edge of side
cutting unit to outside edge of front cutting
unit.
4. If inside edge is still too high, remove an
additional 1/8 inch shim from bottom of front
inside castor arm of the side cutting unit and
one 1/8 inch shim from the front outside
castor arm of the side cutting unit.
5. If the inside edge of the side cutting unit is too
low relative to the outside edge of the front
cutting unit, add one 1/8 inch shim to the
bottom of the front inside castor arm on the
side cutting unit. Check measurement between
outside edges of both side cutting units and
inside edge of side cutting unit to outside edge
of front cutting unit.
6. If inside edge is still too low, add an additional
1/8 inch shim to the bottom of front inside
castor arm of the side cutting unit and add one
1/8 inch shim to the front outside castor arm
of the side cutting unit.
7. Once cutting height matches at the edges of
front and side cutting units, verify that side
cutting unit pitch is still 1/4 inch (6 mm).
Adjust as necessary.
Starting and Stopping the
Engine
Important: The fuel system will
automatically bleed itself when any of the
following situations occur:
• Initial start up of a new machine.
• The engine has ceased running due to lack of
fuel.
• Maintenance has been performed upon the
fuel system components.
1. Ensure that the parking brake is set. Remove
your foot from the traction pedal and ensure
that it is in neutral.
2. Move the throttle control to the mid-idle
position.
