Ammeter - indicates amount of electrical flow at the

battery. Under normal operating conditions

the needle will be on the plus (+) side of

the meter, showing that current is being

supplied to the battery.

At idle speed, the indicator may be at zero

or on the negative (-) side. A continuous

negative reading at normal operating

speed indicates a malfunction in the

charging system that should be checked

immediately.

Headlight Switch - turns the headlights on and off.

Engine Oil Warning Light - will come on when the

engine oil pressure is too low for operation.

Ignition Switch - has four positions:

OFF - prevents all electrical functions from

operating. Switch must be in the OFF

position to remove the key.

ON - for normal operation.

START - engages the starter. Release the

key after engine starts (the switch

automatically returns to ON).

ACC. - has no function on this unit.

NOTICE

•If the engine fails to start, or if it “dies” for

any reason, the ignition switch must be

returned to the OFF position before

restarting is attempted. This feature

prevents damage to the starter and

flywheel teeth that can occur if the starter

is engaged while the engine is running.

Throttle - Push all the way forward for normal

engine operating speed, and all the way

back for idle.

Hour Meter - records the number of hours the

engine has run. Use the hour meter to

manage a good scheduled maintenance

program (refer to the Maintenance Guide).

Pre–Heat Switch and Glow Plug Light -With key

switch ON, push up/forward and hold the

pre–heat switch until the glow plug light

goes out (Diesel Only).

Temperature Gauge and Warning Light -gauge

indicates coolant temperature and light

warns of overheat situation (Diesel Only).

Turf Protection System - can be installed as an

option to warn the operator if a leak in the

hydraulic system is detected.

MAINTENANCE AND PARTS MANUAL

CONTROL PEDALS

The Direction/Speed Pedal (See Fig. 8) controls

speed and direction. Depress front of pedal to go

forward, depress back of pedal to go backward.

Increased movement of the pedal will increase

speed.

To slow and stop the unit, release the pedal

completely. Proper braking is provided by

hydrostatic pressure. If more braking is required,

press on the brake pedal.

WARNING

•DO NOT attempt to force the direction

control pedal to the neutral (stop) position

or to change directions before coming to a

complete stop. Abrupt stops or changes in

direction may cause injury.

Figure 8

1. Direction/Speed Pedal

2. Brake Pedal

PARKING BRAKE PEDAL

The Parking Brake can be engaged by depressing

the brake pedal until the unit is at a complete stop.

Once the unit is stoped, push the parking brake

latch foward to hold the brake pedal. Disengage the

parking brake by depressing and releasing the brake

pedal.

Figure 9

1. Brake Pedal

2. Park Brake Latch

NOTICE

•To reduce fatigue during normal forward

operation, the operator’s heel should rest

on the floorboard next to the pedal (not on

the lower part of the pedal).

The Mow/Lift Pedal (See Fig. 10) lowers and raises

the cutting heads.

To Lower the Heads: Depress the front of the pedal

into the lowered head position. If reel enable switch

is on, reel rotation starts when the heads are

lowered.

To Raise the Heads: Depress the back of the pedal

into the raised head position. Reel rotation stops

when the heads are raised.

HYDRAULIC PUMP BYPASS VALVE

The Bypass Valve allows the unit to be pushed or

towed. Turn the handle on the bottom of the pump

counterclockwise (as viewed from the bottom of the

pump) to open the valve. After moving the unit,

close the valve by turning the handle clockwise.

Figure 11

1. Bypass Valve Handle

NOTICE

•The bypass valve must be tightly closed

for normal operation or a significant loss of

speed will occur and may cause serious

damage to the hydrostatic pump.

RANSOMES G PLEX II Series :WD

MAINTENANCE AND PARTS MANUAL

•The rear swing out arm is to allow you

easy access to the rear cutting head. The

cutting heads MUST BE in the raised

position. DO NOT swing the arm out with

the cutting heads in the lowered position.

WARNING

•To avoid the possibility of serious injury,

ALWAYS be properly seated in the

operator’s seat while the engine is running.

•To avoid the possibility of serious injury,

ALWAYS switch the reel enable switch to

the off position, stop the engine, remove

the key, and set the parking brake each

time you leave the operators seat.

1. The grass catcher MUST BE removed

before you swing the arm out.

2. Release the draw latch (See Fig. 12).

3. Pull the handle and swing the rear arm and

cutting head out.

4. Once you are properly seated in the

operator’s seat, restart the unit and lower

the cutting heads.

5. Shut off the unit and remove the rear

cutting head for service.

6. Once you have completed your servicing,

secure the cutting head to the rear arm.

7. Once you are properly seated in the

operator’s seat, restart the unit and raise

the cutting heads.

8. Shut off the unit and swing the rear arm

back under the unit and secure the arm

with the draw latch (See Fig. 12).

WARNING

•NEVER attempt to drive the unit while the

rear arm is not secured by the draw latch.

Driving the unit with the rear arm out, will

result in damage to the unit, or causing

serious injury or death of you the operator

or bystanders.

ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING

•Adjustment procedures must be performed

as specified by properly trained service

personnel ONLY. If assistance is needed,

contact your local Ransomes/Cushman/

Ryan Dealer.

•To avoid the possibility of serious injury,

switch the reel enable switch to the off

position, lower the heads, stop the engine,

remove the key, and set the parking brake

BEFORE making any adjustment.

•NEVER rotate the cutting reel by pushing

it with your hands or fingers. Fingers can

become caught between the reel and the

frame resulting in serious injury. Use a

ratchet with a 9/16” socket on the end of the

cutting head shaft to rotate the reel during

adjustment and testing (See Fig. 13).

MAINTENANCE AND PARTS MANUAL

BEDKNIFE ADJUSTMENT

For this adjustment, the backlap valve control lever

must be in the center “neutral” position so

that the reels can be rotated manually.

WARNING

•To avoid the possibility of serious injury,

NEVER attempt any cutting head

adjustment while the engine is running.

Any adjustment to the clearance between the reel

blades and the bedknife should be done at the

leading end of the reel first (the end at which each

individual blade first crosses the bedknife). Then at

the opposite end of the reel.

1. Loosen the lower adjustment screws at

each end by turning them approximately 1/

4 turn counterclockwise (See Figure 14).

2. While rotating the reel backwards, turn the

upper adjustment screws (leading end

first) until there is approximately .001²

(.025mm) clearance. After adjusting both

ends, recheck the leading end.

NOTICE

•Too much clearance between the bedknife

and the blades will result in poor cutting

quality. Too little clearance will cause

excessive wear to the cutting edges and

may cause damage to the bedknife, reel

blades or other components.

Figure 14

1. Upper Adjustment Screw

2. Lower Adjustment Screw

3. Rotate the reel forward. The reel must turn

freely and you should just be able to hear

the reel blades making slight contact with

the bedknife.

4. After the bedknife is properly adjusted,

tighten the lower adjustment screw at each

end.

5. Test the cutting head by holding two strips

of newsprint perpendicular to the bedknife.

Rotate the reel with a wrench. The reel

must turn freely and each blade on the reel

should cut one of the two strips of paper.

HEIGHT OF CUT

NOTICE

•All three cutting heads MUST be

accurately set at the same height of cut to

insure an even cut.

•Bedknife adjustment must be made before

setting the height of cut.

1. Set the height of cut on the gauge block

(Part No. 892010) by turning the wingnut

until the distance between the bottom of

the screw head and the top of the gauge

block equals the desired height of cut (See

Fig. 16).

2. Loosen the locking nut on one of the front

roller adjusting brackets just enough to

allow adjustment (See Fig. 15).

Rear Rotary Brush Ac

cessory mounted

1. Loosen Locking Nut

3. Hold the gauge block across the bottom of

both the front and rear rollers near the

roller adjustment bracket and adjust the

front roller until the cutting edge of the

bedknife comes up to touch the bottom of

the gauge screw head (See Fig. 16).

go back and recheck both ends.

5. Make sure all three cutting heads are set

without changing the height of the gauge

screw.
