MAINTENANCE
Checking the Parking Brake
Visually check that no damage is found on
the thumb latches. Perform a test drive and
check that there is a sufficent braking action.
To adjust the brake, contact the service
workshop if you are uncertain. Set the thumb
latches in the neutral locked position. Tighten
the wing nut. Check if the machine is braked,
if not tighten the wing nut again.
Checking the V-belts
Deck belt
Check every 100 hours of operation. Check
for severe cracking and large nicks.
NOTE: The belt will show some small cracks
in normal operation.
To replace belt lower the deck to its lowest
position. Remove the plate and belt shields.
Use a ratchet with a 9/16” socket on the
spring idler bolt to relieve the tension on the
belt. Slide the belt off the pulley and remove
the belt.
Reverse the proceedure for installation. See
the decal on the top of deck for belt routing
information.
After installation is complete check the belt
for twists.
