Bearing Installation
1. Install new bearings in both side plate assemblies
(Fig. 13):
A. Slide new bearings into side plates. If bearings
have extended inner race, position race extensions
toward center of housing. If bearings do not have ex-
tended inner race, position spacer between bear-
ings.
B. Install new seals into side plates. Note: Seals
should be installed so the lip side of the seal will face
the center of the cutting reel. When bearings are
greased, grease will purge from inner seals.
2. Reinstall LH groomer side plate to mower:
A. Position LH groomer side plate to mower making
sure that groomer arm lift rod is positioned through
bushing in side plate.
B. Place spring washer and lock nut on lift rod
threads (Fig. 14). Tighten lock nut.
C. Install reel drive assembly to left side of cutting
unit (see Cutting Reel Installation in the Service and
Repairs section of Chapter 7 – Cutting Unit).
3. Install groomer reel and RH groomer side plate (see
Groomer Reel Installation in this section).
4. Lubricate groomer bearings (see Groomer Reel Kit
Installation Instructions).
NOTE: After greasing groomer bearings, operate
groomer for 30 seconds, stop machine and wipe excess
grease from groomer shaft and seals.
5. Check and adjust groomer reel height and mower
height–of–cut settings.
