  • Page 5: General Operation

    SECTION 2: MOWER SAFETY GUIDELINES Never allow untrained people to operate this machine. It is the owner’s responsibility to get training and see to it that anyone who has permission to use your machine receives the proper training. Do not mow around people. The factory discharge chute is designed to deflect debris downward, but it could be possible for debris to be thrown in a way that can cause damage to people or property.

  • Page 6: Slope Operation

    SLOPE OPERATION Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and tip over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. Operation on all slopes requires extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope, or you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it. 2.22 Mow up and down slopes, not across.
  • Page 7 SERVICE: SAFE HANDLING OF DIESEL To avoid personal injury or property damage, use extreme care in handling diesel. 2.45 Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and all other sources of ignition. 2.46 Use only an approved diesel container. 2.47 Never remove fuel cap or add fuel with the engine running. 2.48 Allow engine to cool before refueling.

  • Page 8: Safety Interlock System

    SAFETY INTERLOCK SYSTEM Your Bad Boy mower is equipped with a safety interlock system. This system is designed to prevent serious injury or death to the operator and other people or property damage. The system consists of an operator presence switch in the seat, the parking brake, drive lever neutral position, the mower blade engagement switch, and the ignition switch.
  • Page 9 The machine could lose traction on a decline or tip backwards on an incline. 3.14 Once you become comfortable with your Bad Boy Mower you will notice your overall mowing time will decrease.

  • Page 12 SECTION 5: MOWER STORAGE & TRANSPORTATION Keep machine from collecting debris by storing in a covered area while not in use. 5.2 Fuel can harm your machine if left for more than 30 days without changing. 5.3 Disconnect the negative battery cable when machine will be stored for more than 30 days. 5.4 Always secure machine properly when transporting machine.
  • Page 13 SECTION 6: TROUBLESHOOTING Q: How do I prevent an uneven cutting pattern and increase the quality of cut? A: Check tire pressure, check blade sharpness (replace blades or sharpen at least once per year or when needed), make sure blades are tightened properly, check spring and belt tension, check the underside of the deck to ensure the mower deck is free of grass build-up and debris, make sure your machine is at full throttle, and vary your mowing pattern each time you cut your grass.
  • Page 14 SECTION 7: CONTROLS Ignition Switch—Bad Boy mowers have a three position ignition switch: off, run, and start. With key inserted, rotate it clockwise to START position and release key when engine starts. Switch will automatically return to he RUN position.
  • Page 15 Before moving the mower, turn the bypass valves counterclockwise one-half to one revolution. The valve stems on each pump are located near the top and are identified as a hex stud. 8.4 Your Bad Boy Mower Weighs: DIESEL SERIES: 1607—1935 lbs *** Weights fluctuate with the addition of accessories.

  • Page 16: Greasing Bearings

    SECTION 10: MOWER BLADE MAINTENANCE 10.1 Check mower blades after each use. This is essential for maintaining well-groomed turf. Keep the blades sharp. If a dull blade is used for cutting, the grass will tear rather than cut. This could damage the grass leaving a brown frayed top on the grass within a few hours. A dull blade will also require more power from the engine.

  • Page 17: How To Choose The Right Blade

    HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT BLADE Essentially there are only TWO basic styles of mowing blades used or approved for use on our current products: 1) The standard style of mowing blade is essentially designed for cutting grass and effectively discharging the clippings out from the deck to fall onto the lawn or to be captured in a grass collection system.

  • Page 18: Mowing Tips

    MOWING TIPS: • Mow header strips at the ends of the lawn and around flower beds first. Make them wide enough that you can turn the mower around in the already mown section. Then mow back and forth between these header strips overlapping each lap by about 1/8 the width of the mower’s deck.

  • Page 19: Service Section

    50 hours of use; then at intervals of 250 usage hours. Use only Bad Boy replacement filters. Use of any other filters may result in damage to the hydraulic system and void the warranty.
  • Page 20 Purging Procedure Due to the effects air has on the efficiency in hydrostatic drive applications, it is critical that the air is purged from the system. These purge procedures should be implemented any time a hydrostatic system has been opened to facilitate maintenance or any additional oil has been added to the system.
  • Page 21 Engine. To access the engine remove the knob on top of the engine cover plate. The oil drain plug is located on the bottom of the engine. Bad Boy recommends that the oil and filter be changed at intervals of 250 usage hours or yearly, whichever occurs first.
  • Page 22 3.1 Changing your engine oil and oil filter 1) After the engine has been run at the normal operating temperature, stop the engine. 2) Remove the oil drain plug located underneath the engine. Allow the oil to drain into a drain pan.
  • Page 23 When servicing the fuel system on the CAT Diesel, it is necessary to purge the air from the system by loosening the 9/16˝ bolt on top of the fuel filter and pumping the fuel bulb (located underneath the radiator) until air bubbles are no longer visible.
  • Page 24 Remove and inspect air cleaner weekly. (More often in dusty conditions). Do not blow filter out with air pressure, this will cause the filter to be filled with tiny holes that will allow dirt to enter. Instead, tap filter on side to remove any debris. Replace at least once a year, more often in dusty conditions.
  • Page 25 SECTION 4: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM The fuses on the 1500cc Diesel are located behind the left swing away tank. The top 40 amp fuse is the main fuse and the two 15 amp fuses are for the linear actuator and for the clutch. Always check the condition of the wiring harness ground cable.
  • Page 26 PAGE 26...
  • Page 27 SECTION 5: FRAME The front fork nuts require a torque of 40ft-lbs. First remove the dust cap. While applying this torque, turn the fork itself to ensure no damage is done to the bearing. This operation is only necessary if a repair requires it. Torque rear wheel lugs to 65-75 ft.
  • Page 28 The pump belt tensioner is located under the engine and has a grease fitting at its pivot point. Grease at every engine oil change. The deck belt tensioner is located at the rear of the deck and has a grease fitting on its pivot point. Grease at every engine oil change.
  • Page 29 SECTION 6: CUTTING DECK Deck belt removal 1) Remove ignition key. 2) Raise the deck to its highest position. 3) Remove the right pulley cover. 4) While lifting up on the belt (as shown in the photograph), rotate the pulley until the belt is free of the pulley.
  • Page 30 Leveling the Deck 1) Start on a flat level surface and set the air pressure in all four tires to 12 psi. 2) Get two 2x4s and make sure that the wider sides are similar length. 3) Take off the foot pedal and raise the floor plate.
  • Page 31 The deck spring tension is critical. If the tension is too high, premature failure of the deck belt and blade spindles can occur. If the tension is too low, the belt can ‘jump off’ or slip on the pulleys. This results in reduced cut quality and early belt failure.
  • Page 32 Blade Removal: To change blades, it may be easier to use a piece of wood to keep the blade from turning so that the bolt can be loosened. Use a 15/16” socket and impact Drill, or a wrench and an extension to gain more leverage. You might need to put a ¾”...
