MAINTENANCE
DRIVE SHAFT YOKE, U-JOINT STUB SHAFT
With engine stopped, inject Lithium-Complex extreme pressure grease conforming to NLGI2-ISO 320
specifications into universal joints and slip yoke until grease appears at the seal. Grease them daily or every 8
hours.
ADJUSTING THE CABLE LIFT
Extend the outboard cylinder until the mower deck
touches its stop on the draft beam as shown.
NOTE: Make sure the cable turnbuckle is loose
enough to allow the cylinder to reach full extension
before the head reaches the stop. Now hold the
head against the stop and tighten the turnbuckle
until the cable is tight. Lower and raise the head to
check the adjustment. The head should touch its
stop at the same time the cylinder reaches full
extension. Tighten turnbuckle lock nuts securely
after adjustment is complete.
