2.
Set the reel control lever to the right for
the backlap position (See Fig. 36).
1.
Start the engine and set the throttle to low
idle. Switch the reel enable switch to the
on position. Lower heads by moving the
mow/lift pedal to the ”mow” position.
2.
Slowly turn the restriction valve knob
clockwise until the desired reel rotation
speed is attained. It should be slow
enough so that the reel will not throw off
the backlapping compound as it spins.
3.
Apply an even coat of backlapping
compound to the entire length of each
blade of the reel. Use a brush with a long
enough handle to keep you away from the
rotating blades. For best results, use a
handle length which will permit application
of compound while standing in front of the
unit.
4.
Once all the blades on the reel are
uniformly sharp, shut off the engine and
switch the reel enable switch to the off
position. Set the reel valve control to the
mow position and close the restriction
valve (all the way clockwise).
NOTICE
•
To ensure proper reel rotation, make sure
the restriction valve is completely closed.
5.
Wash all of the backlapping compound
from all of the heads. Once they are
thoroughly cleaned and dry, apply a light
film of oil to the cutting edges to help
prevent rust.
6.
After backlapping, the bedknife adjustment
should be made again.

time (30 days or more):
1.
While engine is warm, drain the crankcase
oil and remove oil filter, install new oil filter
and fill crankcase with the proper weight of
oil corresponding to the season when the
equipment will next be used. Start the
engine and run for a few minutes to allow
the fresh oil to distribute throughout the
engine.
2.
Drain all fuel from fuel tank and lines.
To put the unit back into operation after an extended
period of storage:
1.
Check crankcase oil and hydraulic oil
levels.
2.
