How To Block The Drive Shaft On Fs45 With The Autocut 5-2 Mowing Head?
How can you block the drive shaft on the FS45 with the AutoCut 5-2 mowing head? The AutoCut 5-2 does not have a thrust plate, and there are no holes that I can see where you could insert a small philips or allen wrench to block the drive shaft.
