Reel Control Cable Adjustment - Toro Greensmaster Flex 21 Service Manual

Reel Control Cable Adjustment

If reel control does not engage or it slips during opera-
tion, a cable adjustment is required.
1. Park mower on a level surface. Make sure engine is
OFF. Remove high tension lead from the spark plug.
2. Move reel and traction controls to DISENGAGED
positions. Make sure that traction control is properly ad-
justed (see Traction Control Cable Adjustment).
3. The reel control cable force should increase the trac-
tion control force by 7 to 10 lb (32 to 45 N). The force
should be measured at the control knob. For example,
if the traction control force is 12 lb (54 N), the combined
traction and reel force should be 19 to 22 lb (86 to 99 N).
4. To increase reel control cable tension, loosen front
cable jam nut and tighten back cable jam nut (Fig. 4) until
the proper adjustment is achieved.
5. Tighten front reel control cable jam nut.
6. Check reel control operation.
