Remove the groomer reel to replace individual groomer
blades or replace the shaft. The groomer blades can be
reversed on the shaft to provide additional blade life.

site side of the cutting unit from the reel hydraulic motor.
Figure 4 shows the groomer reel drive on the left side of
the cutting unit.

cutting units completely to the ground, stop engine, en-
gage parking brake and remove key from the ignition
switch.

pulley (item 16) to groomer shaft. Remove driven pulley
from shaft. Locate and retrieve square key (item 25) and
