Upper tube
Procedure
Note: This procedure is for 60 inch mowers with
gas engines only.
1. Measure up 3–1/2 inches (89 mm) from
the bottom of the upper tube. Use the
existing 3 holes as marks and then mark it in
several places to create a line around the tube
(Figure 19).
2. Cut the 3–1/2 inches (89 mm) off the upper
tube (Figure 19).
Note: Notice the three indentations in the
tube. This is where holes will be drilled in the
