Frequently Asked Questions - SW 03099 Scag

What type of oil should I use in the Scag SW mower engine?

Use a high-quality detergent oil with an API rating of SJ or higher. The viscosity depends on operating temperature; typically SAE 30 for warm weather or 10W-30 for varying temperatures. Always check the engine manufacturer's recommendations in the operator's manual.

How do I adjust the cutting height on the Scag SW?

The cutting height can be adjusted manually from 1.75 to 4.5 inches in 0.25-inch increments. Loosen the hardware on the cutter deck and move it to one of three positions, or reposition the caster wheel spacers to fine-tune the pitch and height.

What should I do if the cutter belt slips?

Check the belt tension using a belt tension gauge. Adjust the J-bolt nut or the idler pulley so that the belt moves approximately 1/2 inch with 10 pounds of pressure. Recheck after the first 2, 4, and 8 hours of use due to initial stretch.

How often should I sharpen the cutter blades?

Sharpen the blades whenever cutting performance deteriorates or after every 8 hours of operation, unless more frequent sharpening is needed due to abrasive conditions. Do not sharpen beyond 1/3 of the blade width, and always check blade balance after sharpening.

What safety precautions should I take before operating the mower?

Read the entire operator's manual, keep all shields and safety devices in place, remove debris from the mowing area, check that all nuts and bolts are tight, and never operate without the discharge chute or an approved attachment installed. Disengage blades and shift to neutral before starting.

Can I operate the Scag SW on steep slopes?

Do not operate on steep slopes. To check a slope, attempt to back up it with the cutter deck down. If the machine can back up without wheel slipping, reduce speed and use extreme caution. Always follow OSHA approved operating procedures.

How do I engage the cutter blades?

Depress the operator presence levers and pull the blade clutch switch to the ON position. Push the switch down to disengage. Engage the clutch at 3/4 throttle for best equipment life.

What are the recommended tire pressures for the Scag SW?

Check tire pressures regularly. Caster wheels should be inflated to 25 psi, and drive wheels to 15 psi. Proper tire pressure ensures an even cut and prevents scalping.

How should I store the mower for more than 30 days?

Drain the fuel tank, or add a fuel stabilizer, and run the engine to distribute it. Disconnect the spark plug wire, remove the battery (if equipped), and store in a clean, dry area. Do not store near an open flame or where fumes can ignite.

What is the operator presence system on the Scag SW?

The operator presence system is a safety interlock that stops the engine when the operator releases the handle levers. It also prevents starting unless the transmission is in neutral and the blade clutch is disengaged, reducing the risk of accidents.

Always wear long pants and substantial shoes. Wearing safety glasses and safety shoes is advisable and required by some local ordinances and insurance regulations.

7. The owner/user can prevent and is responsible for accidents or injuries occurring to themselves, other people or property.

8. Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh gasoline, with a minimum octane rating of 87. Avoid spilling gasoline. Gasoline is highly flammable, handle it carefully.

A. Use an approved gasoline container.
B. Do not fill the tank while the engine is hot or running.
C. Do not smoke while handling gasoline.
D. Fill the fuel tank outdoors and up to approximately 1" (25 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck.
E. Wipe up any spilled gasoline.

1. Before attempting to start the engine, shift the transmission into neutral, move the blade engagement switch to the OFF position, and move the neutral latches to neutral.

WHILE OPERATING

1. Do not operate the machine under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
2. Start the engine when the neutral latches are in the neutral lock position, the cutter blades are disengaged, and the transmission is in neutral.
3. Do not run the engine in a confined area without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and could possibly be deadly.
4. Using the machine demands attention. To prevent loss of control:

A. Mow only in daylight or when there is good artificial light.

B. Watch for holes or other hidden hazards.

C. Do not drive close to a drop-off, ditch, creek bank, or other hazard.

D. Reduce speed when making sharp turns and when turning on hillsides.

E. Always be sure of your footing. Keep a firm hold on the handles and walk---never run.

F. Do not operate where conditions are slippery.

1. The discharge chute must always be installed and in the down position on the side discharge cutter deck except when the Scag optional grass catcher or mulching plate are properly installed. If the discharge area should plug, shut the engine off and wait for all movement to stop before removing the obstruction.
2. Disengage the blades and wait for them to stop before crossing gravel drives, walks or roads.
3. Shut the engine off and wait until the blades come to a complete stop before removing the grass catcher container.

4. Never raise the cutter deck while the blades are rotating.

5. Always park the mower and/or start the engine on a level surface.

6. If the cutting blades should strike a solid object or the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble. Check the machine for damaged or defective parts. Repair any damage before starting the engine or operating the cutter deck. Be sure the blades are in good condition and the blade bolts are tight.
7. Reduce speed and exercise extreme caution on slopes and in sharp turns to prevent tipping or loss of control. Be especially cautious when changing directions on slopes.

WARNING:

DO NOT operate on steep slopes. To check a slope, attempt to back up it (with the cutter deck down). If the machine can back up the slope without the wheels slipping, reduce speed and use extreme caution. ALWAYS FOLLOW OSHA APPROVED OPERATION.

8. The engine must be shut off before checking the oil or adding oil to the crankcase.

9. Allow the engine to cool before storing the mower in any enclosure such as a garage or storage shed. Make sure the fuel tank is empty if the machine is to be stored in excess of 30 days. Do not store the mower near any open flame or where gasoline fumes may be ignited by a spark.

10. Always store gasoline in a safety-approved, red container.
11. Be careful when servicing the battery as it contains acid, which is corrosive and could cause burns to skin and clothing.
12. Batteries release explosive gases when being charged or discharged. Keep batteries away from any source of sparks and/or flame.

INITIAL RUN-IN PROCEDURES (FIRST DAY OF USE OR APPROXIMATELY 10 HOURS)

1. Check the belts for proper tension at 2, 4 and 8 hours. Adjust as needed.
2. Check the steering control rods for neutral adjustment. (See Adjustments, page 6)
3. Check the tires for proper pressure.

Caster Wheels

25 psi.

Drive Wheels

15 psi.

1. Check for loose hardware. Tighten as needed.
2. Check the safety switches for proper adjustment:

* The engine will crank, but not start if the machine is not in neutral.
* On electric start machines, the engine will not crank if the PTO switch is on.
* The engine should crank and start if the machine is in neutral and the PTO engagement switch is OFF.

1. Apply lubricant to all the grease fittings.

Lubricant was applied at the factory. This is just a precautionary check to make sure that all the fittings have been lubricated.

MOWER OPERATION

1. Read and understand the safety instructions before attempting to operate this machine.
2. Before starting the engine:

* Check the oil level in the engine.
* Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh, lead-free gasoline.
* Open the fuel valve on the bottom of the fuel tank.

-NOTE-

* The transmission must be in NEUTRAL.
* The blade clutch switch must be in the OFF position.
* The operator's presence levers must be released.
* The neutral latches must be in the neutral lock position.
* The key switch must be on.

1. Start the engine:

* Choke as required. If the engine is cold, pull the choke knob out. When the engine starts, slowly push the choke in. If the engine stalls, repeat the above operation. When the engine is warm, choking may not be necessary.

1. Engage the cutter blades by depressing the operator presence levers and pulling the blade clutch switch into the ON position. Push the switch to the OFF position to disengage the cutter blades.

PULL UP TO ENGAGE
PUSH DOWN TO DISENGAGE

390S0138

-NOTE-

When PTO is engaged or (possibly) disengaged, a squealing sound from the underside of the machine is normal. It is caused by the electric clutch plates meshing as the cutter blades come up to speed. For best equipment life, engage the clutch with the engine at 3/4 throttle, not under full load.

WARNING:

To avoid serious bodily injury and damage to the transmission, the machine must be at a full stop before shifting between gears or shifting between forward and reverse.

1. Shift the transmission into gear for the desired mowing speed.

-NOTE-

Top speed is suggested only for transport!

1. While squeezing the steering brake levers with both hands, release both neutral latches.
2. When the steering brake levers are released, the machine will travel straight. To make a right turn, squeeze the RH lever. To turn left, squeeze the LH lever.
3. TO STOP, squeeze both levers, lock the neutral latches, and shift the transmission into neutral.

CUTTER DECK BELT ADJUSTMENTS

1. Remove the belt cover.
2. Adjust the cutter deck drive belt using a belt tension gauge. Adjust the belt so that the belt moves 1/2" with 10 pounds of pressure. Adjust the tension by tightening or loosening the J-bolt nut. (See figure 1)

-NOTE-

Due to initial belt stretch and to prevent the belt from slipping, check this adjustment after the first 2 hours, 4 hours and 8 hours of operation.

Figure 1

1. Adjust the RH blade drive belt using a belt tension gauge. Adjust the belt so that the belt moves 1/2" with 10 pounds of pressure. Adjust the tension by tightening or loosening the J-bolt nut. (See Figure 2 & 3)

Figure 2. RH Blade Belt Adjustment

Figure 3. Cutter Deck Belts

TRANSMISSION DRIVE BELT

Adjust the transmission drive belt so that there is about a 3/16" deflection with 10 lbs. of pressure. Adjust by loosening idler pulley mounting bolt and sliding the idler left or right to change belt tension.

DRIVE CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS

1. Adjust the steering control rods so that there is approximately 3/4" clearance from the bottom of the rod to the bottom of the neutral latch slot when in the drive position. (See Figure 4)

Figure 4. Steering Control Rod Adjustment

1. Adjust the steering brake rods so that the brakes do not apply until the steering levers are pulled tight to the handles. When the steering levers are locked in the neutral position the machine should move freely.

CUTTER DECK ADJUSTMENTS

Due to the many cutting conditions that exist, it is difficult to suggest a cutter deck setting that will work for every lawn. There are two adjustments that can be made on these decks, pitch and height.

PITCH is the angle of the blades (comparing front to rear). A 1/4" downward pitch (front of deck down) is recommended for best cutting performance.

HEIGHT is the nominal distance the blade is off of the ground. This measurement is made with the blades pointed side to side and distance is measured between cutting tip and ground. (Also see Blade Height Adjustment, next page)

Changes to the cutting height can be achieved by repositioning the cutter deck. (This adjustment will also effect the pitch of the deck.) There are three available positions (see Figure 5).

Figure 5. Cutting Height Adjustment

Caster spacers also can be repositioned to change cutting heights and to change the pitch of the deck. (See Figure 6)

Figure 6. Caster Wheel Spacers

BLADE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Adjusting the blade height can be done by moving any number of the five smaller 1/4" spacers on the blade mounting bolts to the top of the spindle shaft or below the spindle shaft.

-NOTE-

All blades should be positioned equally.

For best cut and discharge, a minimum of three spacers should be installed between the blade and the spindle. (See Figure 7)

CUTTER BLADES

Do not sharpen beyond 1/3 of the width of the blade. (See Figure 8)

-NOTE-

Dress the blade with a file. Using a wheel grinder may burn the blade. Check the balance of the blade. If blades are out of balance, vibration and premature wear of spindle assembly can occur. See your authorized Scag dealer for blade balancing or special tools if you choose to balance your own blades.

Any part of the Scag commercial mower manufactured by Scag Power Equipment and found, in the reasonable judgment of Scag, to be defective in materials or workmanship, will be repaired or replaced by an Authorized Scag Service Dealer without charge for parts and labor. This warranty is limited to the original purchaser and is not transferable. Proof of purchase will be required by the dealer to substantiate any warranty claims. All warranty work must be performed by an Authorized Scag Service Dealer.

This warranty is limited to the following specified periods from the date of the original retail purchase for defects in materials or workmanship:

* Wear items including drive belts, blades, hydraulic hoses and tires are warranted for ninety (90) days.
* Batteries are covered for ninety (90) days.
* Frame and structural components including oil reservoir, fittings, and oil coolers are warranted for 1 year.

(Parts and labor 1st year; Parts only 2nd and 3rd year) The repair or replacement of the cutter deck will be at the option of Scag Power Equipment. We reserve the right to request components for evaluation. This warranty does not cover any mower that has been subject to misuse, neglect, negligence, or accident, or that has been operated in any way contrary to the operating instructions as specified in the Operator's Manual.
* Engines and electric starters are covered by the engine manufacturer's warranty period.
* Major drive system components (hydraulic pumps and hydraulic motors only) are warranted for two (2) years by Scag Power Equipment. (Parts and labor 1st year; Parts only 2nd year) (Two year warranty excludes fittings, hoses, cooling system, oil reservoir, drive belts, transaxles). The repair or replacement of the hydraulic pump or hydraulic motor will be at the option of Scag Power Equipment. This warranty does not cover any mower that has been subject to misuse, neglect, negligence, or accident, or that has been operated in any way contrary to the operating instructions as specified in the Operator's Manual.

The Scag mower, including any defective part must be returned to an Authorized Scag Service Dealer within the warranty period. The expense of delivering the mower to the dealer for warranty work and the expense of returning it to the owner after repair will be paid for by the owner. Scag's responsibility is limited to making the required repairs and no claim of breach of warranty shall be cause for cancellation or rescission of the contract of sale of any Scag mower.

This warranty does not cover any mower that has been subject to misuse, neglect, negligence, or accident, or that has been operated in any way contrary to the operating instructions as specified in the Operator's Manual. The warranty does not apply to any damage to the mower that is the result of improper maintenance, or to any mower or parts that have not been assembled or installed as specified in the Operator's Manual and Assembly Manual. The warranty does not cover any mower that has been altered or modified, changing performance or durability. In addition, the warranty does not extend to repairs made necessary by normal wear, or by the use of parts or accessories which, in the reasonable judgment of Scag, are either incompatible with the Scag mower or adversely affect its operation, performance or durability.

Scag Power Equipment reserves the right to change or improve the design of any mower without assuming any obligation to modify any mower previously manufactured. All other implied warranties are limited in duration to the one (1) year warranty period or ninety (90) days for mowers used for rental purpose. Accordingly, any such implied warranties including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or otherwise, are disclaimed in their entirety after the expiration of the appropriate one year or ninety day warranty period. Scag's obligation under this warranty is strictly and exclusively limited to the repair or replacement of defective parts and Scag does not assume or authorize anyone to assume for them any other obligation. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

Scag assumes no responsibility for incidental, consequential or other damages including, but not limited to, expense for gasoline, expense of delivering the mower to an Authorized Scag Service Dealer and expense of returning it to the owner, mechanic's travel time, telephone or telegram charges, rental of a like product during the time warranty repairs are being performed, travel, loss or damage to personal property, loss of revenue, loss of use of the mower, loss of time or inconvenience. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
