2-24 Weight Kit Installation
The collection system requires that a weight kit is
installed to the front of the mower to counter-balance the
weight of the collection system, when filled with debris.
NOTE: The (2) weight brackets are secured to the
caster supports first. Then the weight is added to the
weight brackets. It is recommended that two people
perform this procedure. If another person is not
available, use a rolling hydraulic floor jack to keep the
weight into position while you secure the weight to the
weight brackets
Locate the(2) weight brackets P#(B0026). Secure (1)
bracket to each front caster support, using (1) 3/8"-16 x
2-1/8" u-bolt P#(K1119) and (2) 3/8"-16 nylon flange lock
nuts P#(K2038) PER BRACKET. Position the weight
bracket as shown in Figure 2-24a. Insert the u-bolt from
the bottom of the caster support tube as shown in Figure
2-24b. Leave the hardware slightly loose until the weight
has been installed.

After the weight brackets have been secured to the
caster supports, place (1) weight bar P#(B0035) onto the
(2) weight brackets. It is strongly recommended that
someone assist you in lifting the weight bar into position.
Center the weight bar between the front casters. Secure
the weight bar to the weight bracket using (2) 1/2"-13 x
4-5/16" u-bolts P#(K0331) and (4) 1/2"-13 nylon flange
lock nuts P#(K2012). Tighten the weight bracket
hardware at this time. Refer to Figure 2-24c and 2-24d
