ASSEMBLY
DEALER SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
Assembly of this cutter is the responsibility of the
Woods dealer. It should be delivered to the owner com-
pletely assembled, lubricated, and adjusted for normal
cutting conditions.
The cutter is shipped partially assembled, and intended
to be handled in the vertical position. Use appropri-
ate lifting devices to move into horizontal position for
assembly.
Assembly will be easier if aligned and loosely as-
sembled before tightening hardware. Recommended
torque values for hardware are located in the Bolt
Torque Chart, page 42.
Complete Dealer Checklists, page 32 when you have
completed the assembly.
■ Full chain shielding must be installed when op-
erating in populated areas or other areas where
thrown objects could injure people or damage
property.
• If this machine is not equipped with full chain
shielding, operation must be stopped.
• This shielding is designed to reduce the risk
of thrown objects. The mower deck and pro-
tective devices cannot prevent all objects
from escaping the blade enclosure in every
mowing condition. It is possible for objects
to ricochet and escape, traveling as much as
300 feet (92 m).
■ Make sure attachment is properly secured, ad-
justed, and in good operating condition.
■ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protec-
tive equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing,
and head; and respirator or lter mask where
appropriate.
