Maintenance

Maintenance

Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position.

WARNING

While maintenance or adjustments are being
made, someone could start the engine.
Accidental starting of the engine could
seriously injure you or other bystanders.

Remove the key from the ignition switch,
engage parking brake, and pull the wire(s)
off the spark plug(s) before you do any
maintenance. Also push the wire(s) aside
so it does not accidentally contact the spark
plug(s).

Adjustments

Note: Disengage PTO, shut off engine, wait for
all moving parts to stop, engage parking brake, and
remove key before servicing, cleaning, or making any
adjustments to the unit.

Foot Pedal Adjustment

The foot pedal allows the gate to be held in any
position. Adjust the pivot bolt and nut as shown in
Figure 4 for more or less resistance.

Gate Adjustment

1. Stop engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and

remove key. Engage parking brake.

2. Make sure the discharge baffle bolt head is

positioned to the outside of the deck as shown in
Figure 6. Turn the bolt around if necessary.

3. Place the foot pedal in the closed position, refer

to Closing the Discharge Gate in the Operation
section.

4. Try opening the gate with your hands. The gate

should be locked into place. If the gate opens, the
cable tension is too tight. Adjust the cable nuts at
either end of the cable for less tension.
