C. INSTALLING THE BUMPER
NOTE: The throttle cable is
positioned below the wraparound,
with the exception of the 6HP
Tecumseh model.
1. For NON-ELECTRIC
STARTING models:
a.) Hold the wrap-around level
and carefully lower it over
the fuel tank and the air
cleaner assembly (Fig. 10).
b.) Align the holes in the L-
shaped legs on the wrap-
around with the holes in the
tops of the two engine
mounting bars (L, Fig 10).
c.) Loosely attach the legs with
two 3/8"-16 x 1" screws (M,
Fig. 10) and 3/8" lock
washers (N). Leave the
screws very loose for now.
d.) Go to Step 3 on page 5.
2. For ELECTRIC STARTING
models:
a.) Put the Wheels/Tines/PTO
Lever in NEUTRAL.
b.) Hold the wraparound level
and carefully lower it over
the fuel tank and the air
cleaner assembly (Fig. 10).
NOTE: If your tiller has an hour
meter, remove it so the bumper
can fit under the battery bracket.
Reinstall the meter after you finish
the installation steps.
c.) Lower the front of the wrap-
around almost to the floor,
as shown in Fig. 11. Now,
slide the small curved
portion (with L-shaped legs)
between the bottom of the
battery bracket and the top
of the engine mount.
NOTE: If the wraparound will not
fit between the battery bracket and
the engine mount, use a 9/16"
wrench to loosen the two screws
that attach the battery bracket legs
to the transmission cover. Tilt the
battery bracket backward and
insert the wraparound. Retighten
the bracket mounting screws
securely.
d.) Align the holes in the L-
shaped legs on the wrap-
around with the holes in the
tops of the two engine
mounting bars (L, Fig 10).
