Backlapping
Danger
While backlapping, the reels may stall and then
restart. Placing your hands or feet in the reel area
while backlapping will result in injury or death.
• Never place hands or feet in the reel area while
the engine is running.
• Do not attempt to restart the reels by hand or
foot.
• Do not adjust the reels while the engine is
running.
• If the reel stalls, stop the engine before
attempting to clear the reel.
1. Position the machine on a clean, level surface, lower the
cutting units, stop the engine, engage the parking brake,
and remove the key from the ignition switch.
2. Unlatch and raise the hood to expose the controls.
3. Rotate the backlap knob, on the valve block (Fig. 64),
clockwise to the backlap position. Rotate the reel speed
knob (Fig. 64) to position 1.
Important Do not rotate the backlap knob from the
mow to the backlap position while the engine is running as
damage to the reels may occur.
