Collector - Brush
If the brush has become worn or damaged it is simple to replace
the whole brush assembly or individual bristles.
TO REMOVE THE BRUSH STOCK
1. Remove the grass bag assembly by lifting it off the pivot
brackets.
2. Detach the collector from the tractor.
3. Locate the 1/4" nut and bolt at each end of the brush and undo
and remove using a 1/6" spanner and socket. Keep safely
taking care not to lose the washers.
4. Now remove the cover mouldings and free the brush stock.
5. You can now slide off the brush bosses which each hold three
brushes. Note their position on the brush stock (fig 1) which
must alternate when you return them.
6. Slide out and replace individual brushes where necessary and
then re-assemble.
7. When you replace the cover mouldings note that the holes to
take the spindles are off centre and are located at the furthest
end of the brush stock.
Note: This edge should be regularly wiped
and kept clean to ensure that grass cuttings
do not build up and solidify imparing the
grass discharge and causing damage
to the brushes.
