Disassembly
Raise cutter deck into a position

in which the V-belt is as
horizontal as possible between
the cutter deck and PTO clutch.
Remove the V belt (1) from the

PTO clutch/motor pulley (2) –
fig. 20.
To do this, pull left or right side of
the V-belt backwards and then
downwards while manually
turning the engine belt pulley in
the opposite direction.
Note: Work carefully to avoid
trapping your fingers.
Move cutting height adjustment

lever to the lowest position.
Remove front fixing bracket from

the cutter deck – Fig. 19. Pull
cotter pin (1) and pull the fixing
bracket (2) out of the holder.
Note: In doing so, support the
cutters firmly so that they cannot
simply drop to the ground.
Pull out the pin (1) on the left and

right of the cutter deck to
disconnect the cutter deck from
the hanger (2) – Fig. 13.
Note: In doing so, support the
cutters firmly so that they cannot
simply drop to the ground.
Move cutting height adjustment

lever to the highest position.
Pull out the cutters from beneath

the appliance.
Assembly
To reinstall the cutters perform the
above steps (for removing the
cutters) in reverse order. Work
proceeds faster when you are
assisted by a second person. Make
sure that the suspension units are
in their respective recesses on the
cutter mount and the pin has
engaged correctly.
Note
Following assembly, check that the
V-belt is positioned correctly and is
not twisted – Figs. 21 to 23.
Setting the cutter level
When mowing does not appear to
be parallel to the lawn the cutters
can be aligned.
Note
Before aligning the cutters check
the tyre pressure on the appliance.
Setting the side level
Fig. 11
Raise the cutters to the top.

Carefully turn the outer cutters

(risk of injury) transverse to the
drive direction.
Measure the distance between

the ground and the ends of the
two outer cutters. The result
should be the same. If required,
set the correct level by rotating
the setting segment (2) on the left
cutter deck side. To do so first
loosen (but do not remove) the
cap bolt (1) and retighten this
after the adjustment.
Set the level from front to back.
Fig. 10
Note
Set/check the side level before this
adjustment.
Raise the cutters to the top.

Carefully turn the outer cutters

(risk of injury) parallel to the drive
direction.
Measure the distance between

the ground and the end of the
right cutter. The end of the front
cutter should be about 3.2–6 mm
lower than the end of the rear
cutter. You may have to adjust
the front receiver (1). To do this,
set the correct level by adjusting the nut (2).
