Replacing the cutting unit belts
On these cutting units with collision-proof blades, the blades
are driven by one V-belt. Do as follows to change the V-belt:
1 Remove the cutting unit.
2 Undo the bolt on the lift strut and the two screws on the
cover. Lift the cover off the cutting unit.
3 Loosen the spring (4) that tensions the V-belt and pry off
the belt.
Simply reverse the procedure to fit the new belt.
Service position for the cutting unit
The cutting head can be placed in the service position to
provide easy access for cleaning, repairs and servicing. In the
service position the cutting unit is raised and locked in the
vertical position.
Placing in the service position
1 Position the machine on flat ground. Apply the parking
brake. Adjust the cutting unit to the lowest cutting height
and lower the cutting unit.
2 Remove the front hood by removing the pin. (There are
complete instructions on using the service position inside
the front hood).
3 Remove the two support wheels from under the front
hood.
4 Fit the support wheels on either side of the rear of the
cutting unit.
!
WARNING! Wear gloves to protect your
hands when working with the blades.
There is a risk of crush injuries when
working with the belt.

WARNING! Wear protective glasses when
dismantling the cutting unit. The spring
which tensions up the belt may break and
cause personal injury.
