TRAINING

Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by an operator’s single careless act.

In addition to the design and configuration of equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, judgement, and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of equipment.

It has been said, “The best safety device is an informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be that kind of operator.

MOWING GRASS

Woods model 59, L59, and L306 series mowers are equipped with suction-type blades which make them ideal for finish mowing large areas of lawn. The machine should be run level when mowing, and the uncut area should be kept to the left side (right side on left-handed machine). This prevents a small windrow that might otherwise occur.

clear the ground. The side skids will minimize scalping by lifting the mower over bumps.

Height Adjustment (With Casters)

The mower may be raised off the casters at any time by the tractor lift system, but regulate mowing height with caster height. On 59 and L59 mowers, adjust mowing height by transferring spacers from below the caster mounting bracket to above it or vice versa and by moving wheel up or down in holes in wheel yoke.

On 59CL, etc., raise mower before backing up (because of lack of clearance between mower casters and front wheels of tractor).

Attitude Adjustment (Figure 1)

The Woods rotary mower can be adjusted to ride level at various cutting heights by adjusting the rear of the machine up or down in the mounting bracket holes. After changing the height of the rear of the mower, always check the alignment of the belt from the idlers forward. If the belt is out of line, move the entire mower forward or back in the side adjustment holes or adjust idlers as necessary to make the belt run true. The side adjustment holes are also for additional belt take up in case belt adjustment is used on the idlers. It is very important to run the belt as much in line as possible at all times.

Streaking

With certain types of grass and under certain seasonal conditions, the front caster wheels may roll the grass down enough that it will not come all the way back up and will not be cut as short as the surrounding area. This may appear to be a streak left by the spindle, but it is not. The only solution, under these conditions, is to carry the weight of the machine on the lift chains with the caster wheels adjusted up so they carry the weight when riding a high ridge or high spot.

TRACTOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Operate the tractor at full governed rpm when doing normal mowing. If the forward speed is too high, a lower gear can be used.

Height Adjustment (Without Casters)

The mower is raised or lowered and the mowing height is maintained by the tractor hydraulic system.

Set the hydraulic control lever stop for the desired mowing level. Adjust the side skids so that they just

Lubrication

Lubricate the blade spindle shafts with SAE 80 or 90EP gear lube every 24 hours of operation until some oil is forced out around the top of the shaft. If machine is equipped with casters, grease occasionally to keep the powdered metal bearing well lubricated. The V-belt idlers have sealed ball bearings and do not need lubricating. On mowers using chain drive and jackshaft, keep chain well oiled and grease jackshaft every 24 hours of operation.

V-Belts

Belts should be adjusted so that they are tight enough to hold the power of the tractor when mowing. The mowers for IH Cub tractors are designed so that as the mower is raised above the mowing position, the belt slackens. This is to prevent excessive load on the tractor PTO pilot bearings when the tractor motor is operated with PTO disengaged. Thus, on Cub tractors, the operator should avoid adjusting the drive belt so tight that the slackening off effect is eliminated. On other tractors, to prevent belt from jumping off, the belt

8 Operation

29927 (Rev. 3/14/2008)

Page 9

should be adjusted so that it is snug but not tight when mower is raised.

When belt replacement is necessary, use only belts recommended by Woods dealers. These are of special construction for shock loading and severe use.

SIDE DISCHARGE & DISCHARGE CHUTE

ing out too easily. Do not substitute an ordinary bolt. When replacing the blade, tighten the bolt tight enough so that the blade will not slip.

HOW TO SOLVE BELT PROBLEMS

Assemble as shown on mower decal. If not installed correctly, more twist will result than is allowable.

Both side shield and a discharge chute are provided for discharge end of mower (left end on white mower frames and right end on yellow frames). The side cover shield should be used on light mowing and when mowing areas where other persons may be present. The discharge chute is used in heavy mowing to allow easier escape of cut material. Always use either side shield or discharge chute.

OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT

Two caster wheels are available for mounting on the front of the mower. These will gauge the mowing height very accurately. The leaf mulcher disposes of leaves quickly and economically. It returns valuable organic material to the soil.

NOTE: To do a satisfactory job of leaf mulching, the mower should be adjusted so blades are about 1-1/2" above ground and the back of the mower slightly lower than the front. The mower should be run at full RPM with tractor in first or second gear.

MOWER SPINDLE ASSEMBLIES

Mower spindles are equipped with two tapered roller bearings. The proper adjustment is held by a spring pin. It is not intended that these bearings be adjusted during their useful life. When difficulty is experienced with the mower spindle assembly, time and trouble will be saved by buying a completely new spindle assembly.

Belt whip is caused by belt misalignment unless mower is driven by a rough-running or 2-cylinder engine.

Proper position: Adjust mower forward and back to such a position that the rear take-up idlers are near the bottom of their slots when the belt lines up with the proper groove in the center pulley and is tight. Never run the idlers high in the slots as this will cause misalignment.

It is assumed that the mower is adjusted to run approximately level. If the front of the mower is down, the idlers will have to be raised. If the back of the mower is down, the idlers will have to be down further. Belts must be in proper alignment with sheave grooves as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3.

PTO pulleys must be moved in or out to cause the belt to be in alignment with the idlers.

Belt Tension: Run belts very tight. Present belt designs are much stronger than we are accustomed to and will stand more tension. Slipping will heat and ruin a belt but tension is not harmful. You can minimize the amount of change in belt length as mower is raised and lowered by keeping the rear idlers adjusted to a low position.

However, if bearings must be adjusted, the spring pin can be driven out, the sleeve pulled loose, and a washer shim placed under the sleeve to tighten the bearings.

SERVICING CUTTING BLADES

Blades are made of heat-treated alloy steel and are designed to produce the most satisfactory results. For a good mowing job, always keep blades sharp.

NOTE: On left hand models (L - White Frame) the blade bolts have left-hand threads.

Model 59 Mower

(This mower does not have friction blade clutch.) The bolt which is used to fasten the blade to the mower spindle shaft has a nylon insert to prevent it from back-

Special Notes (Refer to numbers in parentheses in above table)

1. Hook one 13-link chain between holes “C” & “D”.

2. Fasten one 10-link and one 7-link chain together.

3. Hook lower end of spring in crotch chain.

4. Hook spring into chain just above hole “H”.

5. Clamp offset end spring under flat washer on out-of-way side of bracket, where indicated.

6. Fasten two 10-link chains together for lift chain.

7. On L306 models, use heavy spring furnished with mower rather than lighter spring furnished with manual lift kit.

Hook to a point on tractor so most of mower weight is held by spring which will allow lift to work easier.

8. Hook upper end of spring over bushing (4). Bolt lift chain to lift lever with 3/8 x 2 bolt and nut.

9. Bolt two 13-link chains together for lift chain.

10. On IH “A” lift lever (3) goes inside steering rod. On IH “B” it goes outside steering rod. For IH “B” shim attachment

plate (10) out away from tractor using spacer (11), four washers (56) and bolts (38). Lift lever may have to be bent out slightly to clear steering rod.
