load operation. Failure to do so may lead to
trouble on a turbocharged engine.

position and remove it
from the switch.
Setting the Reel Speed
To achieve a consistent, high quality of cut and a
uniform after-cut appearance, it is important that you
set the reel speed to the proper setting. Adjust the
reel speed as follows:
1.
In the InfoCenter, under the settings menu,
enter the blade count, mow speed and HOC to
calculate the proper reel speed.
2.
If further adjustments are required, in the
settings menu, scroll down to the F Reel RPM,
R Reel RPM or both.
3.
Press the right button to change the reel speed
value. As the speed setting is changed, the
display will continue to show the calculated reel
speed based on blade count, mow speed and
HOC, but the new value will also be displayed.
Note:
You may need to increase or decrease
the reel speed to compensate for varying turf
conditions.
Adjusting the Lift-Arm
Counterbalance
Rear Cutting Units
CAUTION
The springs are under tension and could
cause personal injury.
Use caution when adjusting the springs.
You can adjust the amount of counterbalance force
applied to the rear cutting-units to help compensate
for different turf conditions, and to maintain a uniform
height of cut in rough conditions or in areas of thatch
buildup.
You adjust counterbalance force of each torsion
spring to 1 of 4 settings. Each increment increases or
decreases the counterbalance force on the cutting
unit by 2.3 kg (5 lb). You can position the springs at
the back side of the first spring actuator to remove all
counterbalance (fourth position).
Note:
To remove all counterbalance force, position
the long leg of the torsion spring above the shouldered
stud.
1.
Park the machine on a level surface, lower the
cutting units, shut off the engine, engage the
parking brake, and remove the key.
2.
Insert the long end of the counterbalance spring
into a tube or similar object, and pivot the spring
around the shouldered stud to the desired
position (
