Servicing Poly Chain® Belt
• Loosen the Poly Chain® belt by
loosening the cutter wheel bearing bolts;
DO NOT remove the bolts. There are
two lock nuts on each bolt that have to
be loosened to loosen the bearing bolts.

BEARING TO MAKE
ADJUSTMENTS EASIER WHEN
BELT IS REPLACED.
• There is a dust protection plate, in two
sections, that goes behind the jackshaft
sprocket and bolts to the Poly Chain®
belt guard. The bolts on this plate must
be loosened to be able to move the cutter
wheel to loosen the belt and remove it.
• Loosen the nut closest to the cutter
wheel bearing on the front jam bolts,
loosen these nuts a good amount.
• Push the cutter wheel toward the engine
as far as possible using the rear jam
bolts; you need to loosen the nut closest
to the bolt head on each rear jam bolt.
• To loosen the Poly Chain® belt, move
the cutter wheel toward the front of the
machine by turning the rear jam bolts on
both bearings. Work back and forth
alternately making small adjustments at
a time. You will need to move the cutter
wheel as far as the jam bolts will allow.
• Remove the cutter wheel sprocket.
Place a mark on the cutter wheel shaft at
the bushing before removing to line up
when replacing the bushing and
sprocket. Remove the three screws in
the bushing and sprocket. Replace two
of the screws in the two threaded holes
to push the sprocket off the bushing.
Turn the screws just a little at a time
working back and forth from one to the
other to keep from damaging the
sprocket or bushing.
