ASSEMBLY—SINGLE UNIT GANG MOWER
1. (Fig. 1). Unscrew the pivot bolt (A) from
the centre of the unit frame. Insert the
lifting lever (B), spring first, into the rear
of the unit frame. The cranked handle can
face right or left. Check that the spring is
pointing downwards and hang ing free,
then insert the pivot bolt (A), through the
hole in the lever and tighten. Do not over-
tighten as the lever must be free to move.
2. Remove nuts and unscrew bolts (C) from
the unit frame stirrups. Position frame
over unit and lock the spring on to the
end of the arm which points forward from
the front axle of the cutting unit (Fig. 2),
then lower the frame on to the unit so
that the stirrups fit over the axle correctly.
Screw in and tighten bolts (C). Do not
over-tighten as too much pressure will
distort the stirrup and cause jamming.
3. Fit the lifting link (D) to the lifting lever
and lug (E), on the rear of the cutting unit
bottom block. The two nuts on the main
body of the link should be pointing away
from the cutting cylinder. The fixed short
loop at one end of the link should be
bolted to the lever, the sliding long loop
should be attached to the cutting unit. Do
not overtighten the bolts. When correctly
coupled the link should be free to pivot
either end, and be free to slide in and out.
4. Remove hitchpin (F) and with the
lubricating nipples on top insert the
drawbar into the front of the unit frame.
The slot must fit over the distance piece
which is already in position. Insert the
linchpin and secure with spring clip.
