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.
SAFETY RULES

OPERATION
A WARNING
■ Do not allow children or unqualified persons to
operate equipment.
■ Keep bystanders away from equipment while it
is in operation.
A CAUTION
■ Stop mower and tractor immediately upon
striking an obstruction. Turn off engine, remove
key, inspect and repair any damage before resuming operation.
■ Alway wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hands, hearing and head.
MOWING GRASS
Woods model 59 and L59 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)
Adjustment for 59 and L59 casters is made by placing
axle in upper and lower holes in the yoke, or by moving
spacers on top or bottom of the pivot shaft. Raise
mower off the ground when backing and turning at the
same time.
Mower Attitude
Position front of mower level with or slightly below the
rear to provide closer cutting. Mowing with the front
end higher will produce ragged cuts with a scalloped
look, excessive shredding, and will require extra power.
Attitude Adjustment (Figure 1)
For best mowing results, dimension “A” should not be
more than 1/2" higher, and never lower, than dimension
“B”.
Dimension “B” is set by adjusting casters, gauge
wheels or lift chains.
Dimension “A” is set by raising or lowering push channel arms in idler bracket.
NOTICE
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
■ Any adjustment to either dimension “A” or “B”
will require adjustment to the other.
Check cutting height and attitude by placing a straight
edge along the outside edge of the mower frame as
shown in Figure 1.
Measure from the bottom edge of the straight edge at
the front and rear at least 32" apart. The front measurement should be approximately 1/2" lower than the rear.
To determine cutting height, it is necessary to subtract
the distance the blade is below mower frame from the
front measurement. On L59, the blade is 4-5/8" below
the mower frame.
When checking cutting height, be sure to take measurements on both sides of the mower. Be sure the
mower is level from side to side using these measurements.
When changes are made to cutting height or attitude,
be sure to check belt alignment and tension.
29932 (Rev. 8/10/2007)
Operation 7
Page 8
Figure 1. Attitude Adjustment
NOTICE
■ Improper belt alignment or tension can cause
premature belt failure.
Lubrication
Grease caster pivot and wheel every 8 hours of operation.
There are grease fittings on each of the three blade
spindles, which are accessible without shield removal.
Grease every 24 hours of operation with a good grade
light to medium grease gun.
Figure 2. Proper Belt Tension
NOTICE
■ Alignment must be rechecked if it is necessary
to move idler pulleys to get proper belt tension.
■ Tension on a new belt should be readjusted
every half hour for the first two hours and then
checked every 8 hours of operation.
NOTICE
■ Do not over grease spindles. Excess grease
could be transferred to the belt and cause slippage
or premature failure.
Belt Tension (Figure 2)
Set belt tension using a spring scale or other force
measuring device. Remove left belt shield. Attach scale
between center and left pulley. Apply between 3 and 4
pounds of force. Belt deflection should measure 5/16"
for normal conditions.
Tension may be increased if necessary to prevent belt
from slipping in heavy mowing conditions. When
checking tension without a force measuring device, the
belt, when properly set, should feel very tight.
Cycle belt through at least two revolutions after any
adjustment before checking tension. These belts are
very strong and need to be adjusted very tight. Belts
are more likely to be damaged by excessive slippage
than from being overtightened.
NOTICE
■ Belt must not rub deck or crosswise support.
Tension adjustments may be made by moving the idler
pulleys up or down.
Side Shield & Discharge Chute
Side shield and discharge chute are provided for discharge end of mower (left end on white frames and
right end on yellow frames). Use side shield for normal
mowing and in areas where other persons may be
present. Use discharge chute for very heavy mowing
conditions.
NOTICE
■ Always use either side shield or discharge
chute.
Optional Equipment
Optional equipment available for this equipment
includes casters for cutting height control, front roller to
minimize scalping, low and extra suction blades, and a
leaf mulcher. Low suction blades are for sandy areas
where abrasive action could cause excessive blade
wear. Extra suction blades are designed to lift up fragile
downed grasses for better cutting results and are also
recommended for use with leaf mulcher attachments.
Mower Spindle Assemblies
Mower spindle assemblies are equipped with two
tapered roller bearings. Bearing adjustment is held by a
roll pin. Adjustment should not be necessary. Repair
requires special skills and tools. You may save time
and money by using a new spindle assembly.
8 Operation
29932 (Rev. 8/10/2007)
Page 9
Blade Servicing
Keep blades sharp for a good mowing job. Sharpen
both ends of the blade the same amount to maintain
balance. Do not sharpen blade to a razor edge, but
leave a 1/16" blunt edge. Do not sharpen back side of
blade. When replacing blades, do not substitute any
bolt for the special Nylok blade bolt. The Nylok bolt is
self-locking, meeting the non-loosening requirements
for this application.
NOTICE
■ On mowers with white frames, the blade bolts
have left hand threads.
59 mowers use cup washers under blades. These
washers will burn and lose their clamping force if
excess slippage occurs. Inspect and replace as necessary.
HOW TO SOLVE BELT PROBLEMS
Assemble as shown on mower decal. If not installed
correctly, more twist will result than is allowable.
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.
Figure 3. Use of Straight Edge (Side View)
How to Align a Twisted Belt
Right: Inside edge of belt are approximately lined up
with the sheave.
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 4.
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.

Wrong: Outer edge of belt appears to be in line.

ASSEMBLY
MOWER FRAME ASSEMBLY
Open box and lay parts out in an orderly manner.
Side Shield (See page 20)
Attach side shields (2 and 3) to mower with 3/8 x 1"
bolts and flange nuts. A side discharge chute (5) may
be installed on discharge end of mower in place of that
side shield.
Center Shield (See page 20)
To allow more lift on tractors with minimum ground
clearance, such as Fords, IH LoBoy, Kubotas, Satohs,
etc., a center belt shield is not offered. If the box of
parts has a center belt shield, bolt center belt shield
bracket (34) to deck with 3/8 x 1" bolt. Bolt center
shield (10) to bolts welded in deck and bracket (34).
Side Skids
Bolt skids using 3/8 x 1" heat-treated bolts (torque to 35
lbs-ft), lock washer, and nuts in such a position that
they will be carried close to the ground, but so they do
not ride continually on the ground when mower is
operated at desired mowing height.
Front Toe Guards (See page 20)
Front toe guards (6) are furnished for some mowers.
When provided, bolt them to the front of the mower,
using 3/8 NC x 3/4" carriage bolt and 3/8" flange lock
nuts. (NOTE: On 59 & L59 where casters are installed
on outer deck rails, bolt toe guards to mower so outer
ends are about 2" in from end of deck. Otherwise, end
of toe guard will be about 1/2" in from end of deck.)
Crosswise Rear Support (See page 20)
Install bushing (16) into center hole in crosswise rear
support and bolt it to back of mower deck with short bar
forward and offset up using 1/2 x 2" hex head cap
screw and 1/2" flange lock nut.
NOTE: On L59, L306F10-2, “S”, JD85, JD95 & GM4
mountings, a special crosswise rear support is provided. If tractor is equipped with turf tires, use upper
center hole in crosswise support, and for Ag tires, use
lower hole.
Channel Arms (See page 20)
Slide mower under tractor. Attach channel arms (12) to
mower frame using 5/8 x 1-1/2" clevis pin and safety
pins. Pin crosswise rear support bar (15) between
channel arms and bolt center to frame angle bracket as
shown in the main assembly drawing.
Casters
If casters are used, see page 19, except for the L59
mower on Ford 1000, 1600, 1700, 1900, and Satoh
S650. (See mounting frame drawing in manual.)
Front Roller
Put front roller bracket (28) on left side and front roller
bracket (27) on right side of mower using 3/8" carriage
bolts and nuts. This will put the highest hole in brackets
rearward.
Assemble roller and roller rod (26) in rear holes in
brackets (27 & 28). Secure with 3/16" cotter pins. Turn
roller by hand to see that it turns freely.
MOUNTING FRAME ASSEMBLY
(SEE PAGE 16)
Idler & Mounting Bracket Assembly
Remove drawbar from tractor and bolt idler bracket (4)
between wheel housings, using holes where drawbar
was attached. Secure with 5/8 x 1-1/4 bolts and lock
washers.
NOTE: If tractor is equipped with 13.6 - 16 turf tires, the
wheel spacer kit (16) (optional) must be used. Use one
spacer between each wheel and axle flange.
NOTE: If tractor is equipped with 3-point lift, remove
outer bars holding lower arm in place and bolt idler
bracket to tractor. See Figure 9 for further instructions.
Idler Assembly to Idler Bracket
Install one V-groove idler (8) on the outside of left vertical slot of idler bracket (4) and one to inside of right
vertical slot. Use three 5/8" flat washers between idlers
and idler bracket. Bolt together using 5/8 x 2-1/2 carriage bolts, lock washers, and nuts.
Drive Pulley
Remove PTO shield on back of tractor. Install bushing
(12) into 6-1/2" pulley (11) and install assembly onto
PTO shaft. Adjust drive sheave (11) fore and aft for
proper alignment after belt is installed. Torque bolts to
12 lbs-ft alternating back and forth on each bolt at least
six times.
Belt Assembly and Adjustment
Slide mower under tractor.
NOTE: It may be necessary to remove one of the channel arms attached to mower deck.
After mower is centered under tractor, reinstall push
channel and pin push channels to idler and mounting
frame using 5/8 x 1-3/4 clevis pin.

29931 (Rev. 8/10/2007)
Page 11
First put belt on the bottom groove, right hand side of
the center sheave. Then thread it to left, around the left
hand sheave.
Figure 6.
Bring the belt back across the center sheave in the
center groove over to the right outside sheave.
Figure 8.
Proper Twist: The belt then follows with a 3/4 twist
back under the left V-idler, up over the drive sheave
and back down under the right idler pulley. This will
leave a 1/4 twist in the section of belt extending from
the right V-idler to lower groove of the center mower
sheave.
Adjust the mower to proper cutting height. The front of
the mower should be slightly lower than the rear of the
best cutting and least power requirement.
Idler Adjustment: Make minor belt adjustment with
idlers but keep left idler about 1" above being in line
with the groove in which the belt runs on the center
sheave of the mower and right idler about 1" below.
Move mower fore and aft for major adjustments. On
L306K210, K260, S, and F10, use belt takeup idlers on
mower deck for major adjustment.
Make major adjustments by sliding mower fore and aft,
using six holes in channel arms as required. Using a
new belt, the push arms normally will be attached to
the idler frame with mower sitting in second hole from
front end of channels.
Figure 7.
Then thread it back across the front of the center
sheave in the top groove.
29931 (Rev. 8/10/2007)
Minor adjustments are made up and down with idler
pulleys. After belt has been run for 15 to 20 minutes,
belts should be re-tightened. Run very tight.
Lift Assembly
If casters are used, they should be installed now, but
leave out front bolt in caster arm. Using a 3/8 x 1-1/2
bolt and flat washer, attach one end of chain through
Assembly 11
Page 12
front hole of caster and deck rail; and secure with 3/8"
lock washer and nut. In some cases it is necessary to
open up the end link of the chain slightly so a 3/8" bolt
will pass through it.
On IH184, install 1/2 x 5/8 x 7/16 bushing (39) in tractor
rockshaft arm. Install 1/2" flat washer on each side of
arm and install 1/2 NC x 1-3/4 hex head cap screw.
Install 1/2 x 5/8 x 5/16 sleeve (3) in lift lug (2) and bolt it
to inside of rockshaft arm.
On IH154 & IH185 attach lift angle (2) to outside of
tractor rockshaft using 1/2 x 1-3/4 bolt and 1/2 x 5/8 x
5/16 sleeve and 1/2" flange lock nut.
Screw 3/8" nut onto the 3/8" eye bolt (26) and slide eye
bolt up through bottom of lift lug (2). Secure with
another 3/8" nut. Repeat instructions for opposite side
of tractor.
Hook upper end of chain (1) into eye bolt (26), adjusting chains and eye bolts to carry mower level. Raise
mower slowly checking that mower does not hit tires,
bottom of tractor, or tie rod when lift is fully raised.
Remove center belt shield from mower deck. Cut off
excess chain after proper adjustment has been made.
Belt Shield
Attach belt shield (13) to rear of tractor over drive
sheave by installing 5/16 x 3/4 flange head bolt into
tapped holes on rear of tractor.
Casters (Optional) (See page 19)
Assemble casters to deck rails with offset inward. Caution must be taken when turning and backing up
that caster wheels do not lock up with front tractor
tires.
Leaf Mulcher (Optional) (See page 22)
1. Turn mower upside down on saw horses. If mower
has a bolt-on front shield, adjust shield all the way
down in long slots. Remove side shields. Leave
side skids on. If optional front roller has been
installed, it must be removed.
2. On mowers with bent-down front frame, remove
center baffle and drill two 7/16 diameter holes in
front of mower at the dimensions shown in parts
drawing.
3. Attach slotted angles (2) to leaf mulcher.

angles (2) and mower side shields to side frame
angle on mower. All 59 mowers with bolt-on front
shield will use front shield hole to attach angles (2).
Bolt side shields to mower using 3/8 flat washers
for spacers.
5. On mowers with bolt-on front shield, bolt front of
leaf mulcher to bottom of slots in front shield with 3/
8 x 1" bolts and flat washers. On mowers with bentdown front frame, bolt leaf mulcher to inside of
mower in holes drilled in front frame using 3/8 x 11/2" bolts and 5/8 long pipe spacers between leaf
mulcher and mower. On some mowers where 5/8"
pipe may be too long, substitute 3/8 flat washers.
6. Drill 7/16 holes in rear of mower deck through
holes in leaf mulcher rear plates and bolt rear of
leaf mulcher to deck using 3/8 x 1" bolts.
7. Tighten all bolts securely. Turn each blade individually inside the leaf mulcher to see that it clears the
leaf mulcher rings. If necessary, the rings may be
re-shaped with a hammer to clear the leaf mulcher
rings.
