Blade Brake Adjustment
Inspect the mower deck with the mower attached and PTO
rod released. The blade brake rods (A, figure 40) should
firmly contact the belt (B) at the rear of the right and left arbor
pulleys. There should be a shaft clearance between the two
brake rods in the center.
To adjust blade brake rods, loosen the mounting brackets
(C) and adjust rods for clearance. Retighten bracket bolts
and check again. Engage the PTO and be sure that brake
rods are at least 1/2" from belts.
