Adjusting the Traction
Spring
The position of the traction spring is adjustable
to increase the traction as attachments, such as
a sulky or bagger, are added to the mower and
excessively uneven terrain.
Use Figure 56 for the traction spring options.

Checking the Tire Pressure
Check the pressure at the valve stem after every
50 operating hours or monthly, whichever occurs
first (Figure 57).
Maintain the air pressure in the rear tires at 14-16
psi (83-97 kPa). Uneven tire pressure can cause
an uneven cut.
Note: The front tires are semi-pneumatic tires
and do not require air pressure maintenance.
