 WARNING
Before removing any guards, shut the engine off 
and remove the ignition key.
All  drive  belts  are  spring  loaded  and  self-tensioning, 
however after the first 2, 4, 8 and 10 hours of operation, 
the belts should be checked for proper alignment and wear. 
Thereafter, check the belts after every 40 hours of operation 
or weekly, whichever occurs first.
BELT ALIGNMENT

Belt  alignment  is  important  for  proper  performance  of 
your  Scag  mower.  If  you  experience  frequent  belt  wear

Before proceeding with the cutter deck adjustments, 
be sure that all tires are properly inflated.
CUTTER DECk LEvEL

proper  cutting  performance. To  check  for  level,  be  sure 
that  the  mower  is  on  a  flat,  level  surface,  the  tires  are 
properly  inflated  and  the  cutter  deck  is  set  at  the  most 
common cutting height that you will use. On the RH side 
of  the  machine,  check  the  distance  from  the  top  of  the 
cutter deck to the floor. Next check the distance from the 
top  of  the  cutter  deck  to  the  floor  on  the  LH  side  of  the 
machine. Both measurements should be the same. If the 
two measurements are different, the cutter deck level must 
be adjusted as follows:
