14. Adjust the axial movement of the brush shaft as
follows:
A. Loosen the set screw securing each locking collar to
the ends of the brush shaft.
B. Rotate each locking collar to unlock them from the
bearing.
C. On the pulley end of the shaft, pull the shaft inward
and rotate the collar forward (in the direction of
brush rotation) into the locking position. Use a
hammer and punch to ensure that the collar is tight.
D. Tighten the collar set screw to secure the
adjustment.
E. Repeat the procedure on the opposite end of the
shaft.
15. Pivot the brush assembly onto the roller. The brush
should lightly contact the entire length of the roller and
should be parallel to the roller.
16. While holding each hex extension with a wrench,
tighten each hex head screw to 60 ft.-lb. Tighten the
capscrew and flange nut securing the bearing
adjustment plate to the support bracket (Fig. 7). Make
sure that the brush to roller contact is not disturbed.
17. Install the belt cover to the drive assembly with a screw
and flat washer. Tighten the screw securely but do not
overtighten as damage to the cover may occur.
18. Lubricate the bearing housing grease fittings with
general purpose lithium grease.
19. Repeat procedure on the 2 remaining left-hand brush
drives.
Important Use caution if tipping the cutting unit onto
the roller brush. Roller brush misadjustment and/or damage
to the brush may occur, resulting in poor performance or a
ruined brush. After completion of the cutting unit
maintenance, check the brush-to-roller contact and reset it
if required.
Note: Retain remaining hex extensions for use with roller
brush kit if groomer attachment is added to cutting unit.
