Cutter Deck - Check List
CUTTER FAILS TO START OR CUTS OUT
WHEN SWITCHED ON
Check:
• Are you on the tractor? – Unless you sit on the seat the safety
switch cuts out the cutter deck.
• Is the battery low? - The clutch engage switch will only
operate if the battery is well charged.
• Does the 10Amp barrel fuse on the printed circuit board need
replacing?
• That either the cutter switch or the safety switch on the seat is
not faulty – if so, call your dealer.
UNEVEN CUT (CUTS SHORTER ONE SIDE
THAN THE OTHER)
Check:
• That the tyres are all inflated to the correct pressures
(see back page).
• That the front axle is pivoting freely.
• That the deck suspension brackets are moving freely and
hitching up.
• That the side to side deck level adjustment is correct
(see page 11).
CUT IS UNEVEN OR UNTIDY IN ONE OR
MORE SECTORS
Check:
• That the cutter deck is levelled correctly front to back
(see page 10).
• That one or more of the blades are not worn or damaged – if
so, call your dealer.
THE CUTTER SEEMS TO LOSE POWER AND
THE BELT SLIPS AND OVERHEATS
Check:
• That the tensioner is correctly applied.
• That the cutter belt tension is correct (page 12).
• That the cutter deck is not clogged with wet cuttings.
