Installation (Fig. 2)
1. Park machine on a clean and level surface, lower
cutting units completely to the ground, stop engine, en-
gage parking brake and remove key from the ignition
switch.
CAUTION
Contact with the reel or other cutting unit parts
can result in personal injury. Use heavy gloves
when handling the cutting reel.
2. Safely prevent reel from rotating by blocking the cut-
ting reel with piece of wood near one of the reel spiders.
IMPORTANT: Groomer gear boxes installed on the
left side of the cutting unit use a left hand thread.
Turn the input shaft (rear roller brush drive shaft)
counterclockwise to install the gear box. Groomer
gear boxes installed on the right side of the cutting
unit use a right hand thread. Turn the input shaft
clockwise to install the gear box.
3. Insert a long--handled pry bar through the front of the
cutting unit. The pry bar should pass between the top of
the reel shaft and the backs of the reel blades so that the
reel will not move.
4. Move the pry bar against the weld side of the reel
support plate closest to the gear box assembly and rest
the handle of the pry bar against the front roller.
5. Position the gear box assembly against the cutting
unit and turn the drive shaft assembly in correct direction
until it is seated against the reel.
IMPORTANT: You must use a 6- -point socket with a
heavy wall to install the gear box to the reel. Do not
use an impact wrench. Groomer gear boxes in-
stalled on the left side of the cutting unit use a left
hand thread; turn the drive shaft in correct direction
to install the gear box.
6. Tighten the input shaft from 90 to 100 ft- -lb (122 to
135 N- -m).
