Greenfietd
Differential
:
Some Greenfield Fastcut models feature a unique and
patented
differential.
This
differential
offers the
operator the option
of the full differential action of the rear wheels for improved
steering
and a tight
tuming
circle,
whilst eliminating rear
wheel scuffing on fine lawns. Most
people
will
operate their
Greenfield
mower
with the
differential
operating all the
time. This is the
prefened
method
of operation
and is
accomplished
by keeping
the handle
hooked
over the end of the
rear axle
(see'!A"
below).
Important: Do not attompt to
engage or disengage the differential
lock
from the
operators
seat or while the engine is
running.
:iii::,'t1,.,'"
In
situations, such as wet areas, uneven terrain,
slippery surfaces and
particularly
when
working on any
slope,
you
must
lock
out the differential action i.e.
"Both
rear
wheels driving" for improved
traction
and
braking. This
differential mus
also
be
locked
out when using any attachment
such as
the
dozer
blade
or when towing.
Locking the
differential is
accomplished by releasing the handle from the
end of the
rear
axle
(see "B"
below).
Slight movement
of the mower
with the front
wheels other
than
straight ahead may be required
to engage
the locking
mechanism.
To
return the
differential
to the
operating
position (see "A"
below) turn
the steering
wheel
either to the left or right.
Rock the mower
back and forth while simultaneously
pulling
out the
engagement
handle
and locating it
over
the
end of
the axle. Lubricate
ifnecessarv.
If the left
side
rear
wheel is removed, make sure the keyed
engagement
block
slides freely into
the square
section of
the
engagement
plate
before the final tightening
of
the
wheel
nuts.
Greenfield differentials are fully lubricated
and sealed for life
at the factory.
If in the
unlikely
event
that
your
differential
needs
service, it must
be
returned to
Greenfield intact. Differentials
that
have been tampered
with or

NOT be considered for
