– put 26 mm blocks (1) under the front edge
of the deck and 32 mm blocks (2) under the
rear edge, and thenput the lifting lever into
position «1»;

locknuts (4 – 6) on both the right and left
side, so that the deck is resting firmly on the
blocks;
– push the two connecting rods (7) to the
back and screw down the two nuts (3) on
each rod until the front part of the deck just
begins to rise both at the right and the left,
and then tighten the relevant locknuts (4);
– turn both the rear screws (5) until the rear of
the deck begins to rise both at the right and
the left, and then tighten the relevant lock-
nuts (6).
If you are unable to get the cutting deck
adjusted properly, consult your Dealer.
6.3.3 A
DJUSTMENT TO THE ENGAGEMENT AND BRAKE OF THE BLADES
For models with lever operated
engagement
When the lever is operated to disen-
gage the blades, this also activates the
blade brake for stopping the blades
within a few seconds.
A badly functioning blade brake is usu-
ally due to wear in the brake lining (2)
and this will need to be changed by
your Dealer.
A stretched cable and changes in the length of the belt can impair the blades’
engagement or rotation.
To compensate this, turn the adjusting nut (1) till the correct spring length is
reached (measured from the outer ends of the spring with the blades engag-
ed).
