SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
„ Make sure all safety decals are installed.
Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for
location.)
Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped
out by an operator’s single careless act.
„
Make sure shields and guards are properly
installed and in good condition. Replace if damaged.
In addition to the design and configuration of
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-
tion are dependent upon the awareness, con-
cern, judgement, and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance, and storage of equipment.
„ Inspect and clear area of stones, branches, or
other hard objects that might be thrown, causing
injury or damage.
OPERATION
It has been said, “The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be
that kind of operator.
„ You may not be able to stop the tractor safely if
the clutch or brake pedal mechanisms are improp-
erly adjusted, allowing them to contact mower
components.
TRAINING
„ When the mower lift stops are installed as
instructed in this manual, properly adjusted clutch
and brake pedal mechanisms will not contact
mower components. You should frequently check
that the tractor clutch and brake pedal mechanisms
are in adjustment.
„ Safety instructions are important! Read all
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all
safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace-
ment manuals and safety decals are available from
your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check
or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319-
6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules
can result in serious injury or death.
„ If the clutch or brake pedal mechanisms can
contact mower components, do not put mower into
service until properly adjusted.
„ Do not put mower into service unless discharge
chute is installed and in good condition. Replace if
damaged.
„ If you do not understand any part of this manual
and need assistance, see your dealer.
„ Know your controls and how to stop engine and
attachment quickly in an emergency.
„ Keep bystanders away from equipment.
„ Do not operate or transport equipment while
under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

operate equipment.
Keep bystanders away from equipment while it
is in operation.
Adjustment for 59 and L59 casters is made by placing
axle in upper and lower holes in the yoke, or by moving
spacers on top or bottom of the pivot shaft. On L306,
adjust by using various holes in the caster arm. Adjust
side skids 1/2" above the ground.
■
A CAUTION
Raise mower off the ground when backing and turning
at the same time.
■
Stop mower and tractor immediately upon
striking an obstruction. Turn off engine, remove
key, inspect and repair any damage before resum-
ing operation.
Mower Attitude
Position front of mower level with or slightly below the
rear to provide closer cutting. Mowing with the front
end higher will produce ragged cuts with a scalloped
look, excessive shredding, and will require extra power.
■
Alway wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hands, hearing and head.
Attitude Adjustment (Figure 1)
MOWING GRASS
For best mowing results, dimension “A” should not be
more than 1/2" higher, and never lower, than dimension
“B”.
Woods model 59, L59, and L306 series mowers are
equipped with suction-type blades which make them
ideal for finish mowing large areas of lawn. The
machine should be run level when mowing, and the
uncut area should be kept to the left side (right side on
left-handed machine). This prevents a small windrow
that might otherwise occur.
Dimension “B” is set by adjusting casters, gauge
wheels or lift chains.
Dimension “A” is set by raising or lowering push chan-
nel arms in idler bracket.
Streaking
NOTICE
With certain types of grass and under certain seasonal
conditions, the front caster wheels may roll the grass
down enough that it will not come all the way back up
and will not be cut as short as the surrounding area.
This may appear to be a streak left by the spindle, but it
is not. The only solution, under these conditions, is to
carry the weight of the machine on the lift chains with
the caster wheels adjusted up so they carry the weight
when riding a high ridge or high spot.
■
Any adjustment to either dimension “A” or “B”
will require adjustment to the other.
Check cutting height and attitude by placing a straight
edge along the outside edge of the mower frame as
shown in Figure 3.
Measure from the bottom edge of the straight edge at
the front and rear at least 32" apart. The front measure-
ment should be approximately 1/2" lower than the rear.
TRACTOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To determine cutting height, it is necessary to subtract
the distance the blade is below mower frame from the
front measurement. On L59, the blade is 4-5/8" below
the mower frame. On the L306, it is 4-7/8" below.
Operate the tractor at full governed rpm when doing
normal mowing. If the forward speed is too high, a
lower gear can be used.
When checking cutting height, be sure to take mea-
surements on both sides of the mower. Be sure the
mower is level from side to side using these measure-
ments.
Height Adjustment (Without Casters)
The mower is raised or lowered and the mowing height
is maintained by the tractor hydraulic system.
When changes are made to cutting height or attitude,
be sure to check belt alignment and tension.
Set the hydraulic control lever stop for the desired
mowing level. Adjust the side skids so that they just

Figure 2. Proper Belt Tension
Lubrication
NOTICE
Grease caster pivot and wheel every 8 hours of opera-
tion.
■
Alignment must be rechecked if it is necessary
to move idler pulleys to get proper belt tension.
There are grease fittings on each of the three blade
spindles, which are accessible without shield removal.
Grease every 24 hours of operation with a good grade
light to medium grease gun.
■
Tension on a new belt should be readjusted
every half hour for the first two hours and then
checked every 8 hours of operation.
Side Shield & Discharge Chute
NOTICE
■
Do not over grease spindles. Excess grease

could be transferred to the belt and cause slippage
or premature failure.
Belt Tension (Figure 2)
Set belt tension using a spring scale or other force
measuring device. Remove left belt shield. Attach scale
between center and left pulley. Apply between 3 and 4
pounds of force. Belt deflection should measure 5/16"
for normal conditions.
NOTICE
■
Always use either side shield or discharge
chute.
Tension may be increased if necessary to prevent belt
from slipping in heavy mowing conditions. When
checking tension without a force measuring device, the
belt, when properly set, should feel very tight.
Optional Equipment
Optional equipment available for this equipment
includes casters for cutting height control, front roller to
minimize scalping, low and extra suction blades, and a
leaf mulcher. Low suction blades are for sandy areas
where abrasive action could cause excessive blade
wear. Extra suction blades are designed to lift up fragile
downed grasses for better cutting results and are also
recommended for use with Woods lawn vacuum and
leaf mulcher attachments.
Cycle belt through at least two revolutions after any
adjustment before checking tension. These belts are
very strong and need to be adjusted very tight. Belts
are more likely to be damaged by excessive slippage
than from being overtightened.
NOTICE
■
Belt must not rub deck or crosswise support.
Mower Spindle Assemblies
Tension adjustments may be made by moving the idler
pulleys up or down.
Mower spindle assemblies are equipped with two
tapered roller bearings. Bearing adjustment is held by a
roll pin. Adjustment should not be necessary. Repair
requires special skills and tools. You may save time
and money by using a new spindle assembly.

lowered by keeping the rear idlers adjusted to a low
position.
Blade Servicing
Keep blades sharp for a good mowing job. Sharpen
both ends of the blade the same amount to maintain
balance. Do not sharpen blade to a razor edge, but
leave a 1/16" blunt edge. Do not sharpen back side of
blade. When replacing blades, do not substitute any
bolt for the special Nylok blade bolt. The Nylok bolt is
self-locking, meeting the non-loosening requirements
for this application.
NOTICE
■
On mowers with white frames, the blade bolts
have left hand threads.
Both 59 and 306 mowers use cup washers under
blades. These washers will burn and lose their clamp-
ing force if excess slippage occurs. Inspect and replace
as necessary. The L306 mower incorporates a friction
clutch disc which is designed to slip only when striking
a solid object. Should blade slip during mowing, tighten
by adding thin shim washers over bushing, between
top cup washer and blade, until blades will hold desired
load. Blade bolts should be torqued to 170 lbs-ft.

HOW TO SOLVE BELT PROBLEMS
How to Align a Twisted Belt
Assemble as shown on mower decal. If not installed
correctly, more twist will result than is allowable.
Right: Inside edge of belt are approximately lined up
with the sheave.
Belt whip is caused by belt misalignment unless mower
is driven by a rough-running or 2-cylinder engine.
Proper position of L59 and L306: Adjust mower for-
ward and back to such a position that the rear take-up
idlers are near the bottom of their slots when the belt
lines up with the proper groove in the center pulley and
is tight. Never run the idlers high in the slots as this will
cause misalignment.
It is assumed that the mower is adjusted to run approx-
imately level. If the front of the mower is down, the
idlers will have to be raised. If the back of the mower is
down, the idlers will have to be down further. Belts
must be in proper alignment with sheave grooves as
shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5.
Figure 4.
Wrong: Outer edge of belt appears to be in line.
PTO pulleys must be moved in or out to cause the belt
to be in alignment with the idlers.
Belt Tension: Run belts very tight. Present belt
designs are much stronger than we are accustomed to
and will stand more tension. Slipping will heat and ruin
a belt but tension is not harmful. You can minimize the
amount of change in belt length as mower is raised and

Bring the belt back across the center sheave in the
center groove over to the right outside sheave.
Figure 8.
Proper Twist: The belt then follows with a 3/4 twist
back under the left V-idler, up over the drive sheave
and back down under the right idler pulley. This will
leave a 1/4 twist in the section of belt extending from
the right V-idler to lower groove of the center mower
sheave.
Adjust the mower to proper cutting height. The front of
the mower should be slightly lower than the rear of the
best cutting and least power requirement.
Idler Adjustment: Make minor belt adjustment with
idlers but keep left idler about 1" above being in line
with the groove in which the belt runs on the center
sheave of the mower and right idler about 1" below.
Move mower fore and aft for major adjustments. On
L306K210, K260, S, and F10, use belt takeup idlers on
mower deck for major adjustment.
LEAF MULCHER (OPTIONAL)
1. Turn the mower upside down on saw horses. If
mower has a bolt-on front shield, adjust shield all
the way down in long slots. Remove side shields.
Leave side skids on. If optional front roller has
been installed, it must be removed.

Operation
To do a satisfactory job of leaf mulching,
the mower should be adjusted so blades
are about 1-1/2” above ground and the
back of the mower slightly lower than the
front. The mower should be run at full RPM
with tractor in first or second gear.
