Clutch Disengagement/Brake Action
The declutched or disengaged position of the
blade clutch idler pulley is adjustable and is set to
give belt release without excessive slack and to
apply the blade brake. The blade brake is activated
by the brake actuator rod linkage to the clutch idler
pulley mechanism. The brake is designed to stop
the blades within five (5) seconds after disengaging
the clutch.
WARNING
It is important to check and maintain
blade brake action for safe operation of
the machine.
