CAUTION
1.
Test Port G1 (front)
Test Port G2 (rear)
Prevent personal injury and/or damage to equip-
ment. Read all WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, and Pre-
cautions for Hydraulic Testing at the beginning
of this section.
3.
Install a 5000 PSI gauge with extension hose onto quick
disconnect fitting in port G1 or G2 (Fig. 15).
Raise hood to get access to hydraulic test fittings.
4.
Make sure Mow/Backlap valve MD1 or MD2 is in the
“Mow” position.
Set reel speed control FC1 or FC2 to position 5.
5.
Make sure cutting units are completely lowered and
engine is OFF.

To check the front circuit, insert a block of wood be-
tweencuttingunitreelbladesandfrontcrosstubesof
any two-front cutting units to prevent the reels from
turning (Fig. 16). Two cutting unit reels must be
blocked to exceed the 3000 PSI front cutting unit cir-
cuit relief valve R1.

engage cutting units, then look at the gauge.
While sitting on seat, move ”Enable/Disable” switch

any two-rear cutting units to prevent the reels from
turning (Fig. 16). Two cutting unit reels must be
blocked to exceed the rear cutting unit circuit relief

Stop the engine. If pressure is too high, remove cap
on relief valve R1 or R2 and adjust screw to get correct
pressure(seeAdjustManifoldReliefValves).Ifpressure
is too low, check for restriction in pump intake line. Re-
move cap from relief valve R1 or R2 and adjust screw to
get correct pressure. If pressure is still too low, pump or
reelmotorshouldbesuspectedofwear,damageorinef-
ficiency.

Sit on the seat and start the engine. Move throttle to
full speed (3200 RPM).
WARNING
Note:
Normal operating pressure when mowing is
approximately 500 to 600 PSI. per cutting unit. The front
circuit should operate at 1500 to 1800 PSI. and the rear
circuit should operate at 1000 to 1200 PSI. for 6500-D
and at maximum circuit pressure for 6700-D.
