2-10 Boot Installation
Mounting The Boot Plate
To mount the boot plate P#(B0309) to the boot
P#(E0012) use (2) 3/8"-16 x 1" carriage bolts P#(K1182)
and (2) 3/8"-16 flange nuts P#(K1215).
NOTE:
Make certain when bolting the boot and boot
plate together, that the head of the bolt is placed from
the inside of the boot. This will prevent grass from
collecting on the bolts.
To install the boot plate and boot to the deck, lift boot
plate assembly to a 45 degree angle and slide bent tabs
under the deflector shield as shown in Figure 2-10.
Adjust boot as needed to insure proper fit.
The boot plate will allow you to switch from collection to
discharge in seconds.
