Note: One way to find a bad reel motor is to have
another person observe the machine while mowing in
dense turf. A bad motor will run slower, produce fewer
clippings, and may cause marcelling (or a washboard
appearance) on the turf.
1. Make sure hydraulic oil is at normal operating temper-
ature before doing test.
CAUTION
Keep away from reels during tests to prevent
personal injury from rotating blades. Do not
stand in front of the machine.
