2. Position the side discharge chute (fig.
7.A) in line with the cutting-means
assembly brackets (fig. 7.C). Using a
screwdriver, turn the second terminal
(fig. 7.B.2) of the spring (fig. 7.B) to bring
it outside the side discharge chute.
3. Fit the pin (fig. 7.D) in the holes on the
brackets (fig. 7.C) and on the side discharge
chute, so that it passes through the coils
of the spring (fig. 7.B) and the drilled end
comes out of the inner most bracket.
4. Insert the cotter pin (fig. 7.E) in the pin
(fig. 7.D) hole (fig. D.1) and rotate the pin
until it is possible to bend the two ends
(fig. 7.E.1) of the cotter pin, (with the aid
of a pair of pliers), so it cannot slide out
and cause the pin to fall out (fig. 7.D).
Check that the spring works
correctly and keep the side discharge
chute securely lowered. Make sure that
the pin is fitted properly to prevent
it from falling out accidentally.
IMPORTANT
For models with optional
side unloading: make sure that the side
unloading guard (Fig. 13.A) is lowered and
locked by the safety lever (Fig. 13.B).
IMPORTANT Before disassembling or
servicing the deflector, always push the safety
lever (Fig. 14.B) and lift the side unloading
guard (Fig. 14.A) to allow disassembly.
NOTE To remove the deflector, perform
assembly steps in reverse order.
