Snapper Z2002K User Manual

PARKING BRAKE ADJUSTMENT:
a. W ith the brake handle in the release position. Remove the cotter pin from the castle nut.
Insert a 0.010 to 0.020 feeler gauge between the brake disc and the brake puck.
Tighten the castle nut with the feeler gauge inserted until the gauge fits snugly between the
disc and puck. The gap should not be so tight that the feeler gauge cannot be reinserted
after removal. Back the castle nut to the closest pin hole and reinsert the cotter pin.
Repeat for other side.
ELECTRIC PTO CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT: Readjustment of the air gap between the friction surfaces
to compensate for the wear that has taken place.
a. Elevate rear of mower and locate electric clutch on motor shaft.
b. Locate the three windows in the brake plate, one near each adjustment nut.
(see illustration)
c. Insert a 0.012 inch (,305mm) feeler gauge into one of the three windows. Be careful
to position the feeler gauge between the rotor and armature faces, (see illustration)
d. Tighten the adjusting nut adjacent to the window with the feeler gauge inserted until
the gauge fits snugly between the rotor and armature. The air gap should not be so
tight that the feeler gauge cannot be reinserted after removal. Repeat Steps c and d
at the other two windows.
e. Recheck the air gap at each window and make minor adjustments as necessary to
achieve a consistent 0.012 inch (.305 mm) air gap.
f. Remove the feeler gauge and rotate the rotor by hand, checking for rotor /armature
drag. The rotor should rotate freely with no sound of drag. If rotor/armature drag is
present, repeat Steps b thru e.
g. After rotating the rotor, verify the air gap by rechecking it with feeler gauges. The air gap
should fall between 0.005 inch (.127 mm) and 0.023 inch (.584 mm). This change in air
gap after rotating the rotor is normal. If the air gap does not fall with tolerance, repeat.
