4.06 - Drivelines and Center Gearbox Timing
DANGER: Only use the original drivelines supplied with this mower and always
with the safety shielding in place. Carefully read and file away the driveline
operator’s manual supplied by the manufacturer. The following does not
substitute the information found in the driveline manual.
Your Flex mower drivelines for the decks are cut to fit in order to deliver a maximum
overlap when extended and without them bottoming out and damaging the mowers
when the Flex is folded into its transport position. It is important to try and maintain
approximately 2” from the two halves from bottoming out and a minimum of 6” overlap in
the working position (see fig. 23).
IMPORTANT: If the wing mowers are moved in or out to change the overlap, or
the drivelines are replaced with new ones, it is important to cut them to the
proper length.
To determine the correct length do the following:
1. Separate the two driveline halves. Connect one half to the center splitter gearbox
and the other half to the mower gearbox.
