Classic MAINTENANCE
BLADE SHARPENING
Blades may be sharpened by filing or grinding, but with either method the balance of the blades must be
maintained at 5/8 oz/in or less. Failure to maintain balance causes excess vibration, wear and shortened life
of not only the blades, but most all components of the machine. To balance a blade after sharpening: attach
1/8 oz of weight 5" from center on the light end. This should make the light end the heavy end. If it does not:
file or grind the heavy end until the addition of weight makes the light end the heavy end.
Cutterdeck Pulley Assembly
NOTE:
•Do not overheat or weaken the blades.
•Do not straighten bent blades. Replace with new
Bob-Cat blades.
If lift portion of blade is worn thin replace with a
new Bob-Cat blade.
•ALWAYS replace with Bob-Cat blades—do not
use another manufacturer’s blades as this could
be dangerous.
•Replace cracked or bent blades.
BLADE REMOVAL
1. Use a box wrench or socket with a long breaker
bar to remove spindle bolt under cutterdeck.
2. Slip tube over breaker bar or wrench if
necessary to gain leverage.
3. Keep hands clear as blades may rotate when
bolt releases.
4. When changing blades, wear thickly padded
gloves.
5. Block blades from turning by using a piece of
wood.
6. Follow these instructions to prevent injury when
bolt releases.
NOTE: To prevent blade from turning, place block
of wood at location A, with grain perpendicular to
blade.
BLADE RE-INSTALLATION
1. Place the desired number of spacers (no more
than 2) on the spindle bolt below the cutterdeck
between the blade and spindle shaft.
2. Insert the cutter spindle bolt (from bottom)
complete with washer, blade and spacers.
3. Place remaining spacer(s) on the spindle bolt
above the cutterdeck between the conical
washer and nut (as shown). Replace nut and
tighten to 70 ft-lbs.

ADJUSTMENTS
Make all adjustments with the engine shut off, spark
plug wire disconnected and mower drive disen-
gaged.
OPERATOR PRESENT CONTROL LEVERS
The operator present (OP) control levers should be
adjusted to control the operation of the plunger of
the operator present switch B(located under the
right side of the control panel). Depressing OP
control levers Ashould depress the plunger;
releasing the levers should extend it.
TO ADJUST:
1. Loosen clamp bolts Con both ends so clamps
can rotate on shaft.
2. Rotate actuator lever to depress switch plunger.
Keep OP control levers against handles and
tighten bolts C.
3. When released, the OP control levers Ashould
rise and the actuator lever should rotate away
from the switch, allowing the switch plunger to
extend completely.
TRACTION RODS AND WHEEL BELT TENSION
There should be a 1/4" minimum gap between the
traction control rod and the bottom of the neutral
latch slot when the drive is engaged and the traction
lock is pushed down. If there is no gap the rod will
hold the wheel belt idler up and the belt may slip.
Too much gap makes it difficult to get adequate
braking and free-wheeling neutral when traction
locks are in the neutral position. The gap may be
increased from 1/4" as long as the machine will free
wheel in neutral. Increasing the gap reduces the
reach to the traction lever.
TO ADJUST:
1. Disconnect the brake rod R.
2. Remove hairpin cotter from the swivel Pon the
traction control rod D.
3. Lift out the rod and turn the swivel in or out to
move it in the required direction.
4. Refit the swivel to the idler bellcrank Qand
replace the hairpin cotter.
5. Check the gap. If it is still not 1/4", repeat the
procedure until an approximate 1/4" gap is
obtained.
6. Reconnect the brake rod.

the brake rod, the links Ubetween the brake arm
Tand brake band may be moved to a different
hole in the brake arm.
6. Adjust belt guide Vto remove any sag in the
drive belt between the drive pulley and the wheel
pulley.
When the brakes are properly adjusted the machine
can be freely manuevered with the traction control
levers in the neutral position. If not, the brakes have
been over-adjusted and have to be backed off.
NOTE: Clean inner groove of wheel drive pulley
daily for better drive and neutral. Accumulation of
grass, mud or other debris in pulley groove can
affect declutching. Set mud scraper Zat each wheel
drive pulley to angle down to catch debris.
UPPER HANDLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
To adjust upper handle height: Remove the traction
control rods. Remove bolts Gand loosen bolts Eon
