sions (figs 1 and 2).
NOTE! To be able to fit this mower deck (Multi-
clip mod. 85M) version B is required.

If the base machine is fitted with version A a sepa-
rate assembly set is required to be able to fit the
mower deck.

The set contains a v-belt, tension roller, spring, as-
sembly components and assembly instructions.
N.B. Older base machines can, however, be fitted

for use with a Multiclip mower deck.
VERSION B:
(Standard on machines made from 1994 - ).
The mower deck can be fitted directly.

arms (fig 4). The spacer sleeves are supplied in a
plastic bag.
3. Bolt the mower deck to the base machine.
4. Pull the v-belt onto the mower decks pulley.
(This is carried out easier if the height adjustment

sideof the v-belt (figs 2 and 5).
6. Hook the spring into the bracket G (figs 2 and 5).
7. Screw the guard H in position using three screws
(fig 6). The screws are supplied in the plastic bag.
8. Hook the chain I and lifting spring F in the attach-
ments lift arm (fig 6).
SETTING
For the mower deck to mow evenly and cleanly it
needs to be adjusted correctly:
1. Make sure the tyre pressure is correct:
Front: 0.4 bar (6 psi).
Rear: 1.2 bar (17 psi).
2. Place the machine on a flat surface. Loosen the
screws K (fig 7).
3. Adjust the mower deck so that the casings front
and rear edges are the same height from the floor.
4. Tighten the screws.
USE
MOWING HEIGHT
The mower deck has 17 fixed mowing heights, from
30 mm to 80 mm.
N.B. The stated mowing heights apply when the
machine is standing on firm ground.

ENGLISHGB
- keep the underside of the mower deck clean.
- use sharp blades.
- do not mow wet grass.
- mow twice (using different mowing heights)
if the grass is long.
MAINTENANCE
Noserviceactionmustbetakenonthe
mower deck unless:
- the engine has been stopped.
- the ignition key has been removed.
- the spark plug cap has been removed
from the spark plug.
- the parking brake is engaged.
- the mower deck is disengaged.
CLEANING
After use, rinse off the underside of the mower
deck using a garden hose.
If grass cuttings have dried on to the attachment,
dismantle the mower deck and scrape clean the un-
derside.
If necessary touch-up the underside using a suita-
ble paint to prevent corrosion.
CHANGING THE DRIVE BELT
1. Remove the mower deck from the base machine.
2. Remove the transmission casing.
3. Loosen the tension arm L (fig 8).
4. Loosen the right hand bearing boxs fixing bolts
M (fig 9).
5. Fit the new drive belt.
Thenewdrivebeltmustbefittedsothat
the blades are square (90°) to each oth-
er. See figure 10. If you fit the drive belt
incorrectly the blades will hit each oth-
er resulting in the blades being dam-
aged.
6. The belt is tensioned by pushing the tension arm
L forwards and then securing in position.
7. Tighten the bearing boxs fixing bolts M.
When the drive belt is fitted, check, by
turningthemowerdeckoverandturn-
ing the blades, that it has been fitted
correctly. NOTE! The mower deck
should be dismantled from the base ma-chine.
8. Now refit the mower deck on the base machine.
CHANGING BLADES
Use protective gloves to prevent cuts
when changing blades/blade tips.
Make sure the blades are always sharp. This gives
the best mowing results.
Always check the blade(s) after an impact. If the
blade system has been damaged the defective parts
must be changed.
Always use original spare parts. Using
non-original spare parts can result in
the risk of damage even if they fit in the
machine.
The cutting system consists of two blade bars, each
with two interchangeable blade tips Y (fig 11).
Both blade tips should be replaced at the same time
to avoid any imbalance.
Fit the new blade tips. Tighten the screws V and W
fully. Tightening torque: V - 9.8 Nm, W - 24 Nm.
And heavy impact can result in the blade tip being
folded aside. Loosen the locking nut X and turn the
blade tip back to its correct position. Mount a new
shear bolt V. Tighten the lock nuts X and Z.
