The blades are replaceable. When replacing, both
blades on the same blade bar must be replaced to
avoid imbalance.
Attention!
Note the following when reassembling:
• The blades and blade bar must be installed as in
fig 14.
• The blades can be turned 1/3 of a turn in their
mountings. Select positions so that the blades
are offset 90° from each other. See 8.9.3 below.
Tightening torque:
Screws (16:G) - 45 Nm
Shear bolts (16:H) - 9.8 Nm
In the event of a collision, the shear bolts can break
and the blades bend back. If this has happened, in-
stall genuine shear bolts and tighten as above.
8.9.3 Synchronising, blades
The deck has synchronised blades.
If one of the blades has struck a solid object (e.g. a
stone), the synchronisation may be altered. This
entails a risk of the blades colliding with each oth-
er.
Correctly synchronised blades must be offset 90°
from each other. See fig. 14.
Always check synchronisation after a collision.
In the event of incorrect synchronisation, contact
an authorised workshop for repair.
8.9.4 Cleaning
The underside of the deck must be cleaned after
each use.
For washing postition: Set the lowest cutting
height. Lift the deck to transport position. Then lift
the front of the deck and pull the hitch until the
hitch locks the deck in washing position.
Clean the underside of the deck carefully. Use wa-
ter and a brush.
To release: Lift the deck and pull the hitch. Lower
the deck carefully.
When the surfaces are completely dry and
clean, touch up the paintwork. Use durable
paint intended for metal outdoors.
