BLADE CARRIER INSTALLATION
Clean the splines on both the blade carrier and output shaft. Position carrier on the gear box output shaft and
install flat washer and 1" hex nut. Tighten nut holding blade carrier to minimum 600 ft. pounds, strike the carrier
on the hub several times with a heavy hammer to seat the hub. Use a suitable spacer over the nut to prevent
damage to the nut and threads. Retighten the nut to 600 ft. pounds. Install and spread cotter pin.

NOTE:
After a few hours of operation always recheck blade carrier retaining nut torque.
Operating the mower with a loose blade pan or holder can damage the taper connection on
the gearbox output shaft. To ensure proper seating between the blade holder and output
shaft check and tighten the retaining nut after the first day of operation. Recheck the blade
carrier attachment each morning before operating. Grasp the carrier firmly with both hands
and try to push and pull the carrier with one hand while pulling and pushing with the other

supported. When installing laminated or airplane tires, be sure the flat side of the lug nut is against the Wheel.
When installing Sectional Tires and Wheels note the direction of travel and the curvature of rubber segments in
the tire (See Assembly Section). Do not exceed 15 M.P.H. on Sectional Tires. When removing Airplane Tires,
let all of the air out of the tire before removing lug nuts or wheel bolts or nuts. Remove valve core to make
certain that there is no air pressure left in tube before separating wheel halves to dismount tires. DO NOT
LOOSEN WHEEL CLAMP BOLTS BEFORE PRESSURE IS REMOVED FROM TUBE AND TIRE TO
PREVENT EXPLOSIVE SEPARATION OF WHEEL HALVES WITH POSSIBLE SERIOUS BODILY INJURY.
Do not exceed 15 M.P.H. on Airplane or Rib Implement Tires.
