ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

REAR MOWER DECK
The center rear mower deck, lift arm and drive belt are placed on a temporary
rack for transportation to the dealer. The RH wing deck can be used as an
assembly reference.
1. Remove the deck and the lift arm assembly from the rack. A chain hoist or lift
truck and straps will be necessary (deck assembly weight – approx. 250lb).
2. Remove both of the center shields of the main drivetrain by extracting (8) 3/8"
bolts in order to install deck drive belt on to the gearbox.
3. Remove (2) 5/8" bolts and bushings that are installed in the lift arm yoke mounts.
4. Roll the deck assembly into position at the center-rear of the mower and remove
the rear deck shields by extracting (2) 3/8" X 3 3/4" bolts.
5. The rear deck belt is then installed by starting at the drive pulley (rear of
gearbox), down behind the frame and twisting it 1/4 turn to ride on the idlers
(both fixed and moveable) and then onto the deck spindle pulley
6. Position the lift arm so that the 5/8" bolt and bushings can be attached to the
frame. Some alignment of the deck will be necessary to thread both bolts into the
frame.
7. The hydraulic hose ends should now be attached to a hydraulic source. Stroke the
center cylinder out completely. Remove the cylinder pin by loosening the 3/8"
bolt that holds it in place. The rod end bushing is placed between the slotted plates
on the lift arm. Push the pin through one slot, through the bushing and through the
other slot. Tighten the bolt being sure the bolt end rests in the indent in the pin at
its center. This will lock the pin in place.
8. The shock absorber is then installed in the threaded hole located on the side of the
lift arm near where the end of the shock rests. Use the fasteners shipped on the
loose end of the shock.
9. Re-install the shields on the main drive train and the center deck.
10. There are two rectangular plastic plugs taped to the frame of the mower. They
serve to fill the tube ends on the frame where the temporary transport frame was
installed.
INPUT SHAFT – shipped strapped to center rear mower deck (on transport rack)
1. Remove ½" UNC retaining bolt/nut from input shaft.
2. Remove notification tag from intermediate shaft hanger bearing, ensure gold
coloured spacer ring is present against bearing inner race.
3. Disconnect input shaft shield at clamp yoke end and slide shield exposing the
clamp yoke (see input shaft service instructions in mower manual storage tube).
4. Install input shaft clamp yoke on intermediate shaft, ensuring gold coloured
spacer ring is in place between the input shaft yoke and hanger bearing race.
5. Reinstall ½" UNF retaining bolt in input shaft yoke, torque to 85 ft-lb.
6. Reinstall input shaft shield per input shaft service instructions.
7. Fasten input shaft guard retaining chain to mower main frame.
TRANSPORT TIRES
1. Check air pressure in the tires and adjust according to specifications
Transport Tires – 32 PSI
