Adjusting the Rear Cutting Unit Clearance (continued)
G402589
2. Grasp the cylinder rod close to the jam nut with
a pliers and rag, and rotate the rod.
Note: Shortening the rod reduces wear strap
and bumper stop clearance.
3. Start the engine, raise the cutting units, shut off
the engine, remove the key, and wait for all
moving parts to stop.
4. Measure the clearance between the wear strap on the top of the rear cutting unit wear
bar and the bumper stop.
Note: The correct clearance is 0.51 to 2.54 mm (0.02 to 0.10 inch).
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 as needed.
6. Start the engine, lower the cutting units, shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait for
all moving parts to stop.
7. Tighten the jam nut.

Preparing the Machine
1. Park the machine on a level surface, lower the cutting units, and engage the parking
brake.
2. Shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop.
3. Check the tire air pressure and adjust if needed.
Note: The tires are overinflated for shipping.
4. Check the hydraulic-fluid level.
5. Grease the machine.
Note: Failure to properly grease the machine will result in premature failure of critical
parts.
6. Open the hood and check the coolant level.
7. Check the level of the engine-oil level, and close and latch the hood.
Note: The engine ships with oil in the crankcase; however, check the oil level before
and after the engine is first started.
