ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Read the complete assembly instructions before starting the assembly.

You should have:

- one mower deck assembly

- two carrier arm assemblies

- two rear tire assemblies

- one ATV tongue assembly

A. ASSEMBLY OF MOWER WHEELS

1. Set the mower deck assembly on wood blocks so that it is suspended off the ground.
Note: The operator controls are on the front of the deck. (Left and right are determined by

looking in the direction of travel or by standing at the rear of the deck assembly looking
forward.)

2. Install the rear tire assemblies on the carrier arm assemblies. Remove the hex nut and lock
washer from the rear tire assembly and install the 5/8”x7-1/2” tire axle bolt through the hole in
the carrier arm assembly. See figure 1. Secure assembly with the lock washer and hex nut
provided on the rear tire assembly. The rear tires should be offset to the outside of the deck
assembly on both sides. See figure 2.

3. Install the two carrier arm assemblies in the pivot arms, which are located on the mower deck
assembly. Place the assembly so that the castered tires are on the front and the fixed tires are
on the back. See figure 2. Secure with 1/2" x 3-1/2" hex head bolts and lock nuts provided on
the pivot arms. Mount the height adjust screw on the deck assembly in the hole provided.
Secure with the 1/2”x1” hex head bolt and lock nut provided on the height adjust screw.

Note: Tighten 1/2” x 3-1/2” and 1/2” x 1” hex head bolts until just snug. This area needs to

pivot when adjusting the height. Under tightening can result in excessive wear and
flexing. Over tightening will make adjusting the cutting height very difficult.

B. INSTALLATION OF TONGUE ASSEMBLY

1. The tongue can be installed either on the left or right caster assembly depending on how the
tow-behind mower will be towed. See figure 2. Secure the hitch pivot on the chosen caster
assembly with the 1/2” x 3-1/2” hex head bolt, lock washer, and nut provided.

2. Install the tongue into the hitch pivot and secure by placing the provided 5/16” wire lock pins on
each side of the hitch pivot.

Note: To help prevent any unwanted pin removal caused by oncoming debris install the 5/16”

wire lock pins with the wire lock section back from the direction of travel. See Figure 3.

The hitching system is designed so that the rough cut mower can be pulled directly behind a tow
vehicle or offset to the left or right. See Figure 4.

Note: When pulling the mower directly behind, the hitch pivot should be fastened on the right

carrier arm for maximum maneuverability. See Figure 2. When pulling the mower in
the offset position the hitch pivot can be fastened on either the right or left carrier arm.

The tongue is equipped with a screw pin shackle clevis to provide movement in all directions on

q

rough uneven ground. To prev ration or debris, place the screw

ent loss of the screw pin due to vib

pin through the tow vehicle hitch and clevis and turn the screw pin until snug.
The tongue is designed to adjust from left to right within the hitch pivot. This allows the mowers

position to be varied behind the tow vehicle. This is accomplished by pulling the 5/16” wire lock
pins out and choosing two other hole locations on the tongue. See Figure 3.

The cutting height can be adjusted in a range from 2.0" to 8.0". This is accomplished by turning
the height adjust cranks on both sides of the mower. See Figure 5. Turn the cranks clockwise to
raise the mower cutting height and counter-clockwise to lower the mower cutting height.

DANGER: Shut off tow vehicle engine and allow mower blades to stop completely before
attempting to measure the cutting height.

Adjust the mower as follows:

1. Pull the mower o

n to a smooth, level surface.

2. Adjust the mower evenly from side to side by measuring to the ground from the lower edge of
the mower deck. The desired h

eight will be the distance from the ground to the outside lower
edge of the mower deck plus 1-5/16”. The mower blade cutting edge is 1-5/16” above the
outside lower edge of the mower deck.

Note: If the height adjust cranks do not turn easily, the pivot bolts holding the carrier arm

assemblies and height adjust screw may be too tight. Loosen the pivot bolts slightly to
allow easier pivoting. Care should be taken not to loosen too much or excess wear and
flexing may occur. Greasing the threads may also allow greater ease in adjustment.

Note: After leveling mower deck, quick field adjustment can be completed by counting crank

turns. Roughly 6 turns will equal 1” of vertical movement.

The adjustment crank may unturn due to vibration. This will allow the mower’s cutting height to
change. The crank can be secured by folding it down between the adjustment nut tube and the
upper pivot support. See Figure 6.

This model comes with a belt brake, which is a safety feature that stops the blades from turning
after the clutch is disengaged. The only time the brake should be in contact with t

he belt is when

the clutch is disengaged.

CAUTION: The brake stud must be adjusted. If the brake stud is not adjusted correctly,
the blades will still spin even though the clutch may be in the disengaged position. Alw
shut mower engine off before se n

rvici g.

Periodic brake stud inspections should be performed every 10 hours. In more severe cutting
conditions, more frequent inspections may be necessary. There are two parts to inspecting the
brake stud. Those two inspections are the disengaged spring length and brake stud clear

ance.

Note: It is quicker to perform the disengaged spring length and brake stud clearance

inspections if done simultaneously.

Disengaged Spring Length:

This inspection must be performed to make sure that there is proper braking force to prevent the

provide the appropriate braking force. If the spring length is to long it will be necessary to adjust
the brake stud closer to the belt. If the spring length is to short it will be necessary to adjust the
brake stud further away from the belt. To make brake stud adjustments loosen the bolt on the top
of the brake stud and slide the brake stud in the slot. When the proper disengaged spring length
is achieved, tighten the bolt on the top of the brake stud. For this procedure do not adjust the
spring length. The spring length should only be changed when adjusting the be

lt tension.

Brake Stud Clearance:

This inspection is necessary to prevent over-braking. With the clutch engaged

, check to make
sure that there is at least 1/2” of clearance between the brake stud and the belt. If the clearance
is less than 1/2” then it will be necessary to adjust the brake stud away from the belt. Keep in
mind that the disengaged spring length must stay between 2-5/8” and 2-7/8” (For models with

3”

long spring) and between 3-1/4” and 4” (For models with 4-1/2” long spring).

CAUTION: If brake stud is not set in correct position, under-braking or over-braking may
occur. If over-braking occurs, premature belt failure or a possible fire could occur due to
excessive friction and overheating.

MOWER BLADE REMOVAL, BALANCING & INSTALLATION

CAUTION:

Sharp blades can cause bodily injury if not handled properly.

When removing the blade, it is recommended that a block of wood be placed between the blade
and the underside of the mower deck. This will allow the removal of the blade without the need to
hold the blade by hand.

CAUTION: Always balance the mower blades each time they are shar

pened.

Out of b
bolts co

alance mower blades cause excess vibrations which lead to premature bearing failures,

ming loose, and overall deterioration of the wing mowers.

CAUTION: Always properly tighten the blade bolts to the specified torque. Failure to do so
can lead to saddle.

unwanted loosening of the blade and damage to the blade holding

The Models MR55K, MR55B and MR55T use the Kunz Engineering Part # (202141) blade bolt.
This particular hex head bolt is a 3/4” – 16NF x 1-1/4” long, grade 5 and it’s proper torque is 300
ft-lbs.

To ease in the blade installation process, use the same block of wood and method used during
the removal of the blades

.

H. LUBRICATION

There are five lubrication points on the rough cut mower -- one spring-loaded idler pivot, two
caster wheel pivots, and two blade spindles. Lubricate at approximately 10 hr. intervals or more
often as required in dusty conditions. Lubricate the blade spindles 2-5 pumps every 50 hours.
(The bearings have trash guard seals to hold the seals in place during lubrication.) Lubricate with
a high grade of pressure gun grease.

Note: Do not over grease blade spindles. Blade spindles are initially greased at the factory.

Greasing before 50 hrs. may cause bearing seal damage which will result in premature
bearing failure.
