COUNTERBALANCE SPRINGS   a) Raise the cutterdeck all the way. b) Adjust the spring A with nut B:   Approximately 1" of threads should be extending  past the spring mounting bracket at nut B.  The springs may be tightened or loosened from  this point according to personal preference. 7. FINAL PREPARATIONS - Check the engine and hydraulic oil levels.  Top up with the correct oil if necessary.  Use SAE 10W30  motor oil for the engine.  Use fresh, clean SAE 15W40 or SAE 2

                        MAINTENANCE  WOODS HYDRAULIC SYSTEM  Fluid level in the hydraulic system should be checked  after the first 5 hours of operation, and every 100  hours thereafter, or when a leak has occurred.  If the  fluid is low, check all components for leaks.  To check, remove reservoir cap M.  The fluid level  should be at the bottom of the filler tube.  If low, top  up  (do not overfill).  Use one of the oils listed below: – SAE 15W40 motor oil – SAE 20W50 motor oil – 15W50 synthetic motor oil AFTER FIRST

AFTER FIRST FIVE (5) HOURS While the engine is warm: 1. Release the oil drain hose assembly from the  engine clip J.  Lay hose assembly over the frame  edge. 2. Remove the rubber cap D from the tip of the  hose assembly and turn the drain valve to allow  oil to drain from the engine.  Dispose of used oil  in accordance with local requirements. 3.

Replace if dirty.  ENGINE COOLING Continued operation with a clogged cooling system  will cause severe overheating and can result in en- gine damage. - Daily:  Clean air intake screen S on air cooled  engines and T on liquid cooled engines.  - Every 100 hours:  Clean cooling fins beneath  blower housing H with reference to information

                        MAINTENANCE  WOODS CLEANING MACHINE Clean the machine after use.  Compressed air is  recommended.  Do not use a pressure washer.  The  machine will run cooler and last longer if kept free of  clippings and other debris.  A clean machine also re- duces the risk of fire due to accumulation of combus- tible debris and chaff. Brush or blow clippings and debris off the cutterdeck  and engine deck.  DO NOT use a pressure washer. WASHING MACHINE CAUTION: Improperly washing a machine can cause  water to

                        ADJUSTMENTS WOODS DECK LEVELING a) Park the machine on a smooth, level surface.   Raise the deck to the transport position. b) Lower the deck onto a pair of equal height blocks  A under the rear corners of the deck.  Place  another pair of adjustable blocks B under the  front of the deck so that the deck top is pitched  forward 1/8”. NOTE: The front and rear of the deck are at different  heights. c) Measure the height of the blade cutting edge  above the ground.  Remove pin C and set the  height

                        ADJUSTMENTS WOODS HEIGHT OF CUT The height of cut is set by moving height of cut pin C  to the hole designated for the height of cut desired.   To change the height of cut: 1. Lift the deck to the highest position. 2. Move pin C to the selected hole.   3. Lower the deck until the lift lever is stopped by  the pin. NOTES:   – Height of cut may vary due to the amount of  tread on the tires, tire diameter or inflation pres- sure. – For best results, adjust the rear deck rollers for  the height of c

                        ADJUSTMENTS WOODS CONTROL LEVERS There are two mounting positions for the control  levers, upper and lower.  The lower position works  well for most people.  Taller operators may need the  upper position. To adjust the height of the control levers: - Remove bolts A and nuts B.  - Align holes in control lever D with appropriate  holes in traction lever bracket C. - Install bolts A and nuts B. The upper mounting hole for the control levers is  slotted to allow fore-aft adjustment and to allow  ali
