DPA Cutting Units: Service and Repairs
Note: The reel nut on the left end of the cutting reel has a black finish and
has left-hand threads. The left end of the cutting reel shaft is identified with a
groove cut just inside of the left-most reel spider. Tighten the reel nuts to the
specified torque once the cutting reel is installed in the cutting unit.
6. Install the reel nuts finger tight.
1. Position the cutting unit on a flat work area.
Contact with the reel, bedknife or other cutting unit parts can result
in personal injury. Use heavy gloves when installing the cutting reel.
2. Apply a thin coat of grease to the outside of the cutting reel bearings and
carefully slide the cutting reel assembly into the right side plate. Make sure
that the reel bearing is fully seated in the RH side plate, and that the reel nut
on the left (exposed) end of the cutting reel has a black finish.
3. If removed, install the grass shield (14) to the crossmember (13) and secure
with the three bolts (15).
4. Place the flat wire spring into bearing bore of LH side plate and carefully
slide the left side plate onto the cutting reel assembly as far as possible.
5. Install the four shoulder bolts (3) that secure the RH and LH side plates (4
and 21) to the crossmember (13). Tighten the shoulder bolts (3) from 24 to
27 N∙m (210 to 240 in-lb).
6. If loosened during cutting reel service, tighten the bearing lock screw and
the reel drive nut.
